Audi 80 B3 brake upgrade problem!
Hi! Yesterday i tried the brake upgrade but no sucess!
The Audi 80 is B3 from 1989 and uses single disc 256mm. Brakes upgrade: Corrado G60/ S2 calipers + audi coupe 2.2 20v quattro discs vented (276mm 4 studs). The problem is the disc crash into the "arm" (spindle carrier) Here you have some pics of the calipers and the arm I think i need to change the "arm".. Waiting for help! Kind regards, Mário |

I don t know.. I m not sure even if it is from a Coupe, but i have here the box and info disc. I think is from a coupe 2.3 20v between 1990 and 1991.
When i bought i saw the list and searched by diameter and holes. And seams to be all the same. All 276mm have the same dimentions.. Delphi ref. BG2748 Overall Height = 56.2mmVented Mountings 4 Discs diameter 276mm Discs thickness 24.9mm Overall height 56.2mm Centre diameter 68mm Minimum thickness 23mm |

you may need the front discs from a 90 b3 shape or the whole front brake set up which has twin piston
capilers
