Question about the Audi type big brake kit from Van-cafe. Is
the caliper part of the brake compatible with an off the
shelf Audi part or is also modified like the carrier bracket.
I don't have a stock a4 part to compare it to and need to
know if I can have my local part place drop off a rebuild.
I am working on a van that the one piston seal was torn
and now the piston is hanging up from being corroded.
I'd love to get them on the way so I can focus on my own
projects...Thanks.

At least on my G60 install on my synco (pieced together), the calipers are unmodified. Only the carriers are modified.

VanCafe will sell you a rebuild kit for the Audi caliper. I have one at home.
