Hey all. My friends and I are getting ready to do the s5 NA to S5 TII swap, and I wanted to see if there were any tutorials online for it and if anyone has any advice for it. (Other than "just buy a TII")
So far i have a jespec engine w/complete long block, ecu, wiring harness (uncut) and all the pumps and pulleys, I have the t2 diff and all i need is the drive shaft.
If anyone knows, do i need a TII gauge cluster or would an NA one work? And is there anything els i need that i dont otherwise have?
Also if anyone is selling them, i would love a pair of front TII break calipers
Thanks and hope to hear some replies soon.

Click the link in my sig. The last post has some S5 specific wiring info, and the first few posts have S4 info that is the same for S5s.

You don't need a TII cluster, and you can use the existing NA emissions harness to make life easier.

if you have an S5, then the calipers should be just like the TII. again correct me if i'm wrong. what year S5 is it?

All S5s had 4-pot calipers except for the base model, the GTU.

Well its a white gtu, but i can get the breaks from my gxl i have. (both are 90's). Is there anything i should keep in the engine bay? Also I was curious if you know how to fix a throttle cable to the speedometer?

All s5 turbo calipers are made for vent rotors

not all s5 calipers work properly with s5 rotors as some are not vented

I forgot to ask about California smog emissions with this swap and from what i hear it wont pass due to the jdm and turbo in a n/a car parts, but just to make sure i wanted to know if its able to pass or what the deal was with it.
