Jon,

The current crop of Big Brake kits are not what's in question. Coincidentally, those are likely produced by the same folks who first brought the SA big brake kits to the US market -- Overland Parts Inc. (aka Eurospec Motorsports). Unfortunately, this company is well known for keeping their parts sources closed to their breast which is why this question has arisen.

The SA discs are 276mm vented. That's the same spec as the Audi 200 discs. As I previously mentioned, they should theoretically fit. But I hope to confirm that some has used them on an SA big brake hub.

Cheers,

BenT sent from my electronic leash

The van hubs need to be replaced as they are turned down slightly to fit the Audi rotors. I Think the Audi rotors are stock, but will need to verify that... > Jon > >
