Default Stasis Engineering rear brake kit. FEELER POST!!

First of all let me assure you that this is not a scam or BS. Call Stasis Engineering if you are really serious and talk to Paul(1-888-978-2747). Stasis is thinking about doing a big brake upgrade for the rear of our a4's and want to see how many of you would be seriously interested. I am still talking to Paul about pricing and all that good stuff. Please post or call if you're interested. Thanks.

Default Yes the parts are expensive but...

I have the motorsport coilovers and have a set of 14" rotors and alcon calipers on the way. The coilovers are awesome!!!! I am still talking to paul but, like I said the parts are awesome.

Default Yes the kit would have an e-brake..

The kit would include a bigger rotor (12") or slightly bigger I think. Rear alcon calipers, and of course a built in e-brake. The kit would be awesome. Untill now only the s4's have had the option of going with upgraded rear brakes. The kit is complete and if it is anything like the coilovers I have from them it will be well worth it and of course look incredible.

Default Hmmmm, if you have 14" in the front....(read)

and just pads in the rear, you're already really on the tires to stop you. you better have 255ZR or better to get much help out of rear brake kit. even when tracking. you need more HP or weight for the money involved to make sense.

for everyone else I suggest you have 14" fronts before being concernd about the rears, you don't want to upset the braking Bais and get those rears to lock up to soon, even if fish tailing is fun.

Is the A4 master cylinder large enough to support front and rear big brakes?

I am building a show car. But you are correct with what you said about braking.
