Will S4 calipers fit an S5 car?

Have a good deal for a pair of s4 rear single piston calipers. My rear calipers are shot. Will they fit? His are from an 88 s4 n/a, mines a 90 gtu n/a. Thanks!

I don't think so - I believe the rear brakes are different.

i thought all fcs have identical rear calipers the only difference being that some came with vented rotors and others had solid.

at least thats the way it looks to me in the fsm.

Yeah, the vented versus solid rotors are different widths.
I believe the brake pad part numbers are different?

So they'll fit? Given i might have to buy brake pads from the s4 model, instead of the s5?
