Default Letting go of most of my D2 mods- big brakes chip etc..

Guys,
The bad news is: I am returning my A8 to near stock. (except suspension, to hard) The wifey is driving it now plus I bought an old 911 to hammer on.

The good news is: You guys get great deals on some hard-to-find stuff...

I also have a set of wheel studs w/ ball seat nuts, I haven't listed those yet..

Everything is listed on ebay just search for A8 Big Brake Kit and use the view sellers other items link.

Email me w/ questions and offers.

It's a 99' SWB. Eibach springs, custom Bilsteins, S sway bars, coded tranny, clear corners, smoke sides, all new front control arms/joints.. The thing out handles my 911 in it's current form but not for long.

I can't figure out why the pictures show up so small.. Any ideas?

Default Remove the ".t" , for thumbnail, from the URL

If you click on a thumbnail in your picture poster, you'll see the full size pic and it's URL.

Default Note: It probably won't be a bolt up to the facelift cars, only pre facelift cars

Some guy with a 2000 bought the other sets of hats and brackets from BIRA for his A8, and they wouldn't fit at all. Offset of each component way off.

Good luck, can't believe you took that stuff off!

Will that server take 1.5" SCA drives or only skinny 1" SCA drives?

Just the skinny ones 1" tall. Yes SCA in both server and external case.
