Installation instructions for article 817 Tuning brake caliper adapter VW Scirocco Passat Audi Q3 to the Wave Audi RS7 356x22 brake disc with Porsche Cayenne calipers
Here you will learn how to proceed step by step to convert your VW Passat, Eos, Audi Q3 or Audi TT to the Porsche Cayenne and the VW Scirocco R brake calipers as handbrake in combination with the original Audi RS7 Wave brake discs.
Dismantling:
- Old brake system (brake disc, brake caliper and brake caliper carrier).
- Remove or process the air baffle or brake baffle or anchor plate (we prefer the removal, as the ventilation of the brake is better ensured).
!!Important!!:
What do you need?
- Depending on your technical knowledge, about 1-2 hours of time
- Torque spanner with suitable attachments n
- Liquid threadlocker
The first step is to mount the Epytec tuning adapters on the rear axle of the VW Passat. The adapters fit the complete VW Passat series such as Audi Q, TT, TT Roadster, VW Scirocco, EOS etc. with the installed aluminium axle, part number: OE 3C0505435F.
Tipp:
For easier installation, the adapter for the handbrake caliper can be completely loosened again on one side, so that it can be pulled out slightly and the handbrake caliper from the VW Scirocco can be attached without any problems. If the handbrake caliper is screwed on tightly, the adapters can be screwed on completely.
You can then fit the Audi RS Wave 356x22mm brake disc(part number: 4G0.615.601E ).
When fitting the rim, make sure that the brake calliper does not rub against the rim. If this is the case, you can counteract this with wheel spacers, so that the rim has enough distance to the brake caliper. Click here to get to ou wheel spacers (click here).
So the conversion with the Porsche Cayenne brake calipers and the VW Golf 4 R32 handbrake system and matching Audi RS7 356x22mm brake disc is almost complete.
Finally, the clearance of the new brake system must be checked. To do this, turn the vehicle completely to the left and right and check that nothing is rubbing against anything or that nothing is touching anything, e.g. the suspension joint, transverse link, etc.
The whole procedure must be carried out with the suspension on and off.
If there is a collision at full steering angle, it may be possible to counteract it with steering angle limiters (click here for our steering angle limiters).
