I want to upgrade my brakes. First of all the discs are warped and i want to increase engine power to 230-250HP, and breaking is the most important thing to take care of.

I have found front discs and calipers from an audi b5 RS4 from 2000.
The caliper will fit directly or do I need other parts as well to make the conversion?
Also, I have audi a4 17` rims, if I make the conversion, I suppose the alloys will still fit.

I am a newbie in tunning, so any advice would be perfect.

Thanks

Easiest thing to do is the A8 upgrade. All you need are the caliper carriers from a TT and the 312mm rotors from an A8. This way you can use your old calipers.

the thing is that I already found the calipers and the disc brakes. But I don't know if they will fit, or if I have to change something else.
