Default Hypothetical braking Q:can brakes from an S4 be used on an A4????-->

Example, a BBK made for the S4, if it includes calipers and brackets, can it be swapped into an A4??

(looks at wall clock) Sorry guys, need to kill 1/2 an hour.

rears only. Front bolt pattern on the B5 S4 only matches the B6 A4

Default the rears work great for my 2 B5's, going Boxster A8's on front of mine. Hers gets the A8's.-edit

the front S4 brake as already stated will work on a B6 not a B5 unless you replace almost everything. Not worth it. Backs bolt right up no problems get the dust shields too.
