well StaSiS has....
a full rear upgrade kit that replaces everything but the calipers and they have a rotor upgrade kit for use with the front calipers. So buy some other stuff for the fronts to complete out the kit and you could have a minor uprgade for the car without having to get new calipers. Just a thought I was having, alot chepaer then a whole new kit.

One thing you can count on with STaSIS - they do their homework and they do it very well.
Call and ask them about the combinations you are considering. Their upgrades are meant to be used in very explicit applications. When you see a rear upgrade described as a "Track Sport" system, it probably can't be combined with an "Enthusiast" front system without screwing up the front to rear brake bias. This is not something you want to do and they will probably tell you that over the phone.
Pick up the phone if you are considering their systems - they are the best in the business for talking with their customers at length and giving you the best information about how to apply their products. I cannot possibly offer you better advice than what you will get from them directly. I owe a lot of my knowledge about suspension systems and brakes from discussions with Paul and Ryan.

JD - I just spent some time on the STaSIS web site and I think the call is quite critical
It is not clear to me that any of the brakes kits you are looking at on their site are applicable to a B6 S4 vehicle. Those all appear to be products aimed at the B5 S4 chassis and are not designed for our cars at all.
Call and confirm where they currently are with respect to our cars.....

Hiding in plain sight cleverly disguised as a web link :}
Kinda funny there isn't a link to that page on their web site. The link at the bottom for "Braking Performance" is a link back to their regular web pages and that set is not designed for our platform - just the new stuff on the web pages linked off of ours.
