Porsche 996/986S Brakes on my B6 A4 - BRACKETS NEEDED
Hello everyone-
I am searching for caliper brackets that will fit Porsche 996 or 986S monobloc Brembo calipers to my 2003 Audi A4 1.8T. By word of mouth I've heard there are brackets which utilize these calipers and B5S4 rotors.
I just need the brackets.
* I contacted Pure Motorsports and they said they do not have them for my application.
* I contacted ECS Tuning and they do not sell them separately for liability reasons.
* I got involved with Bira.org (Braking Improvement Research Association) and while knowledgeable folks, they only have prototypes fabbed up but not enough orders to begin mfg'ing them.
* I also contacted PG Performance, but they have not contacted me in return about them.
I want to hear from someone who has done this themselves and know what they're talking about.
I can't believe that with all the people driving B5S4's and B6A4's that there are not scads of these caliper brackets available.
Anyway, Thanks to anyone who may help.

Thanks for the follow-up. I'll contact them. Anybody else have any decent leads?!?
Or is anybody Seriously in the market for the System 2 kit from BIRA? If so, put your money on the table because I need 2 more takers and it's a deal.

COME TOGETHER
People:
I need anyone who is seriously in the market for these brackets to please join Bira.org and put your name in for a set of these brackets.
Again, these are brackets that will mate a Porsche 996, 986S, or 987S (maybe even 997 - I'll let you know) caliper to a B5 S4 and a B6 or B7 A4.
There has to be tons of you out there. Put your money down and let's get this done.

Sorry just B5 S4 (2.7TT) or B6 A4 (all)...
Unless the C5S is the same caliper bolt spacing as a B5S4 and B6A4, but I don't think so.
Are you a Bira.org member? You may want to sign up - they have a number of different brake upgrade solutions concocted. Just in my case, they have the recipe, but not enough orders to start fabricating the brackets.
