    Friction brake doesn't have a kit for the Audi. The pads are incidental. I will access that at some other point. I would pick a different pad to use on any track day. Those will be far and few between. The car below will be what I play with on the track. Play being the key word. I won't really be racing either car. I can afford to build them...not rebuild them.

    I have Performance Friction rear brakes on my 1989 RX7 20B N/A. Logan of Defined Autoworks in Ohio is building my engine and other fab work. He gets test parts off of race cars from some track on the east coast. Some of these teams will put a set of brakes on a car and do a couple of laps and something not be to their liking and the sell the parts cheap, cheap, cheap.

    With the two set of calipers below and the custom hats and bells and custom mounting brackets I have about 4500.00 in them. The actual cost would be damn near low end carbon. When this build was started six years ago, yep six years, I didn't really even think of carbon. I am almost glad..

    These are the front calipers, made for highest level racing. Mono block, internal crossovers, nickel plated for fastest heat dissipation, titanium vented inserts. Pure work of art! Don't ask the new cost....I don't really know but I paid almost nothing. I don't remember exactly but something like 600.00 for the pair
