View Full Version : Brembo Big brake conversion
Guy's,
I have a Brembo Big Brake conversion from my Audi S3 sat in my garage. It was only on my S3 for about 2000 miles so they're still like new. The question is - Is there an adapter i can get in order to get them to fit my 330?
These brakes are the nads and it's a shame to get rid of them if they'll fit....
Cheers
Ade

What size?
Mechanism is the same. You need custom caliper mounting brackets and may need to trim the stock splash guard. Once you get the correct caliper mount, you should be able to fit them.
If you're fitting just the fronts, you don't have to worry about brake bias. But if you're doing both front and rear, brake bias is usually fine tuned from the factory so that the rear only work at 20% of the front capacity. Too much rear bite and your car will spin out under braking.
This is the kit i have

I think the disk that come with it are 328x28 but i'm guessing i'll need to replace these as the stud patterns are different...
Is there anywhere that anyone knows of that fabricates the adapter i need?
Cheers

The hub centres are usually replaceable, can you not ask brembo for the correct centres for the 330?

Dude, you know what? You shouldn't have sold your S3!! http://forum.e46fanatics.com/images/smilies/hammerhead.gif
Like Lee said, centre hat can be replaced as spare. The Brembo kit for the 330 is 330x32mm, so you're not too far off. Speak to Roy www.ca-automotive.co.uk he should be able to give you some lead into who does custom brackets ;)
They are going to look hard as :eek:
