Yes, 256mm brakes off an Audi 90. Use GOlf Mk2 16V discs.

You might need to swap the master cylinder over though. Check out www.clubgti.co.uk website for more details.

Rear brakes, drums are supposedly OK, disc calipers seize and don't do that much braking.

you might be able to use rear subframe off a 2WD Audi 90 but you would probably end up with 4x108.

Or if you go larger than 14" wheel, you can use 276 or 280mm brakes I think (though I don't know much about that). I just know that 280mm brakes off a G60 golf fit under 15" G60 steel wheels.
