G60 brake swap, 4 to 4 lug needed?

If I swap my stock audi 90 FWD brakes to the G60 brakes, will I need to convert my car to 5 lug?

Your 90 should already have g60's from the factory. But no you would not need to do a 5 lug swap to use them.

The B4 fwd and awd cars have the same brakes. The only difference is in the hub mounting of the rear rotors, but they are the same size.

If You have factory 2.8 V6 engine you must have girling 60 brakes. If don't you can change it is not necessery to swab brake disc to 5 lugs. Brake disc are 276m25 4x108.

Good to know lol

What is the difference between the rs2 bakes and the B4 brakes then? I would like to get the Porsche brakes, thought they were similar.

Look in this forum under Resources at the top of the page.
Then tech articles.
Then tires/brakes/Susp.
Then 80/90.
Then Porsches brakes.

You will find the info you need to make your own front brake upgrade.
