Nobody upgrade from 280mm brakes? Just wanting to know if either 288/312mm carriers will fit the knuckles?
Either no one knows or they're not answering, only way to find out is to try it, I do know you'll need to have 16 inch wheels.
Thanks for your reply calum,I've had the caliper/carrier bolted on with no issues to test it,I've now got new 312mm discs,ferrodo premier pads and suitable flexis so I'm ready to tackle the job,if I can work out how to post pictures I'll put some up as other people may be interested in same upgrade.
Just the caliper bolted up to test fit

just about to bring my s4 in to do the same, test fit the new brakes, but i am going from 321mm discs to 350mm with brembo 6 pots off a porsche cayenne.
Sounds interesting mate,after remapping my car the brakes are really weak,so hopefully the 312 set up will make a noticeable improvement,you gonna post pics mate?
yeah, will get some pics up soon.. the standard s4 brakes work well enough upto a point, but start to fade on fast a roads. shes remapped anyway but i am going for bigger turbos soon so the brakes are in preperation for that. total cost will not be much more than expensive standard brakes, but i did draw the line at the ferodo ds2500 pads which even trade would set me back 300 quid, so went for the trw dtec instead.
Had a look at the ferrodo ds pads a wee bit pricey for me,went for the ferrodo premiers as they get good reviews,my cars a pd100 remapped to 140 at the moment but I'm after a pd130 turbo and injectors and 3bar map sensor then hopefully push it up to 175ish.
looking to fit a pair of tte550 turbos and fuel pump/injectors and get to 550 bhp.
