Here's my big brake upgrade for my B4. I used new Girling G60 calipers and carriers (this caliper is used on Audi 200 turbo, early Audi S4, and Audi S2), VW Corrado G60 11" rotors x-drilled and slotted, EBC green stuff pads, SS lines, and ATE super blue fluid.
It was all a straight forward bolt-on upgrade. If you can change your own brake pads and flush your own fluid, you can do this upgrade with ease. Note that 15" or larger wheels are required. This won't fit under the stock 14" steelies.
All I can say, is WOW. With the stock brakes, I would sometimes wonder if I could stop in time when traffic slows down quickly. Now my only concern is that the guy behind me doesn't rear-end me! /images/graemlins/grin.gif HUGE difference in braking performance with this upgrade. I'm very pleased with the results.
They look wet in the last two photos because they are wet. I gave them a quick rinse for the photo - there is yellow tree pollen blanketing everything near my house...
newly installed parts. the small old rotor is laying on the floor:
