RS4/5/6/R8 8 POTS
« on: December 30, 2014, 08:43:49 am »
Morning Guys,

So these 8 Pot jobbies.... are they a straight fit? any Daveb brackets needed to fit to the MK5 GTI?
what are the disc options in terms of size ect?

Was considering the TTRS set up but not convinced they will be a great improvement on my NQSBBK  :ashamed:.  want to stay OEM+ and
get something naughty  :evilgrin: which packs a bigger punch and looks pleasing to the eye too.  :love:

I reckon the TTRS 4 pots will be better for daily and moderate track use than the Lambo 6-8 pots.
Less pistons and means you get a nicer pedal.
I think the lambo calipers fit with some brackets
Alex has them on his octavia.

thanks Jay - not too worried about the daily drive experience with them as its not my only car  :happy2:

anyone know some pricing for these brackets ect. can one assume they can fit behind TDs 1.2 and oem Audi 19" BBS split rim Speedlines  :popcornsoda:

Mandy and Hurdy on here run Lambo brakes, give them a shout. At a guess you'll need 19" wheel minimum and spacers.

And I'll keep my eyes out for a NQSBBK coming up for sale... :happy2:

Moving over to Flickr, sorry for the broken picture links!

You need RS4/ R8 calipers
RS5 discs
Centring rings (from AKS)
RS4/ R8 pads
Hoses are pretty much all the same (can get them from AKS as well)

They fit on with the standard carrier. I've just put together a kit about 2 months ago for a friend with the help of Alex at AKS.
