- ✓ original brake caliper
- ✓ rear axle
⚠️ Important Notice:
This item is produced exclusively upon request. As it is a made-to-order special production based on demand, there is no right of withdrawal pursuant to § 312g (2) No. 1 of the German Civil Code (BGB).
Therefore, returns or exchanges are excluded.
Brake caliper adapter to mount brake discs 310x22mm on the rear axle Audi A8 in connection with the original brake calipers.
Suitable for all:
- Audi A6/ S6 C5 (Type 4B) year of manufacture 1997-2004.
- VW Passat B5 Type 3B
- not suitable for the C5 2.7T, 2.7T four-wheel drive, V8 four-wheel drive, or RS6
When converting to the larger A8 brake discs, the braking performance is significantly increased due to the efficiency and better cooling of the brake discs. Another advantage is that the brake discs of the A8 cost almost half compared to the original 269x22 brake discs. Thus, our holders have already paid for themselves after the first brake conversion.
With this conversion, 17 inch rims can still be retained.
Required components:
- A8 brake discs 310x22 (ATE No: 24.0122-0212.1)
Advantages:
- Extreme deceleration values also in connection with our rear axle brake system
- The material certificate included in the scope of delivery enables entry by individual acceptance even for series vehicles
- Directly suitable for the models mentioned above and can therefore be restored to the original condition at any time without any problems
- Our EPYTEC brake caliper adapters do not require your standard parts to be sent in, no re-welding - re-milling or re-drilling.
Delivery:
- 2x brake caliper holder (see picture)
- high-strength screw material
- materials certificate
Tips, information and advice:
- To improve ventilation of the brake system, we recommend removing the anchor plates/brake dust plates.
- For easy mounting of the rim, we recommend purchasing two of our wheel mounting aids at the same time >>go directly to the article here<<
- We cannot give you a generalised answer as to which rim size you can ride after your brake conversion. There are simply too many different wheel rims. For this reason, we have developed a template with which you can easily check whether the brake system kit fits under your rim. We have included a link to the template in the description. If your rim does not fit, you can simply use wheel spacers. >> Go directly to customised wheel spacers <<
- Install the adapter with the required components and then check whether new brake lines are required, as the old ones may not be long enough or the connection may not fit, depending on the model. Due to the significantly better efficiency, we recommend switching to steel braided lines. We have developed a steel braided line configurator especially for this function, which you can use to assemble and then install them according to your requirements. Click here for the steel flex configurator >> Configure steel flex brake line <<
- The handbrake cable must always be used from the installed calliper, which means that the new handbrake cable may have to be adjusted slightly. For conversions in which the original calliper is still used and the original handbrake cable can be used, you may have to route it more directly to compensate for the larger disc diameter and longer travel
Please note that our articles have been designed for racing and motorsport. Use in public road traffic usually requires an individual approval in accordance with § 21 StVZO by an officially recognised expert. Further information can be found under TÜV Süd. For the individual approval, we will provide you with an expert opinion or material certificate, if available.

Super Ware, schneller Versand, gerne wieder.
- Which brake pads should be used?
The original brake pads from the brake caliper, which is required for our conversion kit, must always be used.
- Can I use other brake calipers as indicated in the required components?
No, unfortunately that is not possible, the reason being that all brake calipers have different height and depth measurements. If another brake disc is installed, the brake caliper would either not fit the adapter at all or not run centrally to the brake disc. If you want to install a different brake caliper, we also have an option for you. You can have a custom-made product manufactured, check out the following link for more information:
- Can I also use other discs as specified in the required components?
No, unfortunately that is not possible. The reason is simply that all brake calipers have different height and depth measurements. If a different brake disc is installed, the brake caliper would either not fit on the adapter at all or would not be centered with the brake disc. However, if you want to install a different brake caliper, we also have an option for you. You can have a custom-made product produced, have a look at the following link for more information:

My brake caliper is not exactly centered over the brake disc - what should I do?
If your brake caliper is not exactly centered over the brake disc, in most cases it is not a problem. Depending on the vehicle, model year, and mileage, axle tolerances can occur – and this even in newer vehicles.
The most important thing is:
👉 The brake caliper must have sufficient clearance on the left and right to the brake disc so that nothing rubs or permanently touches it.Many brake calipers also have locking bolts. It may happen that:
there is very little clearance on one side or the bolt lightly touches
while on the other side there is more play
This is generally not critical.
🔧 This is how you proceed:
Install brake pads:
First check if the brake pads can be inserted cleanly and without resistance on both sides.If everything fits:
If installation is possible without problems, you can simply gently push back the locking bolts – this usually resolves the issue.If it jams:
If the brake pads cannot be installed, or only with difficulty, on one side, action is required.In this case, you can:
slightly shim the adapter with suitable bushings to adjust the brake caliper
or – depending on the situation – slightly mill the adapter so that the brake caliper is correctly centered again
👉 The goal is always that the brake caliper is evenly aligned with the brake disc and the brake pads are seated freely and cleanly.
