Very nice!!!

Quick question, probably obvious answer, you did use some sort of adapter
between the calliper up wheel hub up front right???

For all who wanted more Info:

Front:
-vented discs Audi100/A6 (C4, ´92-´97), also A4 (´95 and up)
-front caliper from same Audi(s)
-288mm diameter, 25mm thick

Rear:
-"normal" discs, Audi A4 (new model ´02 and up)
-rear caliper Golf3 (´92-´97)
-245mm diameter, 10mm thick

The front adaptors should also fit with the bigger Audi brakes, e.g. S4,
S6(+), A8, S8, RS4 (up to 360mm diameter)

The standard (already completed) version requires 15" rims.

Not sure if Audi 5000 calipers fit. I have an Audi 5000 here, but it is
still in use. So I didn´t have time yet to test those calipers. Maybe they
fit, maybe not...

Price: About half the price of a Porsche system (4-discs: 9500DM in Germany)
Price should still be cheaper than the german Oettinger 4-disc-system
(roundabout 4000-5000DM).

No warranty yet on prices, availability or durability. I want to test the
complete setup on the german autobahn ;-)

I am already collecting orders/interests. The more, the cheaper...
Definite prices follow (after everything´s complete, tested and calculated)
