2005-2011 Audi A6 / S6 / RS6 (C6) CCB Big Brake Kit — Genuine Akebono OEM Audi RS 6-Piston (9N) Caliper Front + TTSPORT EP4 4-Piston Caliper with EPB Rear Setup
The C6 Audi A6, S6, and RS6 are heavy, high-speed cars, so repeated braking exposes the limits of iron rotor heat capacity, brake dust control, and front-end mass. This StopFlex kit uses a 400mm carbon-ceramic front rotor with the Genuine Akebono OEM Audi RS 6-Piston (9N) Caliper and a 380mm EPB-compatible rear package to add thermal capacity while reducing dust and rotating mass. Each kit is built around the confirmed A6, S6, or RS6 trim so the bracket geometry, rotor-hat offset, and caliper position match the specific car rather than the C6 name alone.
- 400mm front carbon-ceramic rotors require 20-inch or larger wheels; barrel and spoke clearance must be checked before production.
- Front axle uses the Genuine Akebono OEM Audi RS 6-Piston (9N) Caliper, selected for a large-pad, multi-piston layout suited to the C6 car’s weight and speed.
- Rear axle uses a 380mm carbon-ceramic rotor with TTSPORT EP4 4-Piston Caliper with EPB so the C6’s factory electronic parking brake function is retained.

Every StopFlex kit is bespoke-engineered for your exact model and trim — the brackets, rotor-hat offsets, and caliper mounting are matched to your specific car, not assumed from the platform. This matters because trims that share a chassis name can differ mechanically: a pure M or performance variant often carries different front knuckles/uprights, hub geometry, and wheel axial (ET) clearance than the standard models in the same family, so a bracket and hat offset that bolt onto one are not the same parts that fit the other. StopFlex supplies the calipers, pads, rotor hats, floating hardware, and brake lines as a matched system built to your confirmed trim. Cars with modified knuckles, modified uprights, or non-factory suspension mounting points must be reviewed before ordering and are not treated as direct-fit.
This setup uses a 400 mm front rotor, so the minimum wheel size is 20". Wheels under 20" will not clear the caliper and rotor, and spoke profile and offset affect clearance too — confirm your exact wheels before ordering.

Caliper Overview — Front & Rear Balance
Front Caliper (Primary Upgrade)
The front upgrade is built around the Genuine Akebono OEM Audi RS 6-Piston (9N) Caliper, a six-piston OEM-derived Audi RS caliper that gives the 400mm rotor a broad, rigid clamping footprint. Its provenance matters on a C6 A6/S6/RS6 because the caliper is not a generic aftermarket casting; it is a genuine Akebono unit from Audi RS brake architecture, matched here to StopFlex hats, pads, hardware, and lines for the confirmed trim.
Rear Caliper (Balance)
The rear package uses the TTSPORT EP4 4-Piston Caliper with EPB on a 380mm carbon-ceramic rotor to add rear-axle thermal capacity without deleting the C6 electronic parking brake. The EP4 uses four hydraulic service pistons plus a dedicated EPB actuator piston, so service braking and parking-brake operation remain separate functions.
Front & rear, engineered together: The 400mm front and 380mm rear packages are engineered together so the car does not receive a front-only brake torque increase without matching rear thermal capacity and EPB integration. StopFlex confirms the exact A6, S6, or RS6 trim before machining brackets and hats because C6 variants can differ in knuckles, hub position, and wheel offset clearance.
Make It Yours — Color & Logo Customization
Every StopFlex kit-upgrade order can be finished with custom caliper colors, a custom caliper logo, and custom rotor hat colors, so the brake package matches your exact build instead of a fixed off-the-shelf look.

Why StopFlex CCB
Lower Unsprung Mass
StopFlex carbon-ceramic rotors are engineered to reduce rotor mass versus comparable iron discs, helping the suspension react cleaner and the steering feel more precise.
High-Temperature Stability
The carbon-silicon-carbide matrix is built for stable braking behavior at temperatures that can push iron rotors into heavy fade.
Rust-Free Rotor Surface
Carbon ceramic does not form orange flash rust after rain, washing, or storage, keeping the visible rotor face cleaner behind open wheels.
Long Street-Service Potential
In normal road use with matched pads and proper bedding, StopFlex CCB rotors are designed for far longer service life than typical iron replacement rotors.
Low Visible Dust
When paired with matched StopFlex pads, the system produces very low visible brake dust compared with conventional iron rotor and pad combinations.
Premium Ceramic-Glaze Appearance
StopFlex's proprietary coating creates a bright, high-end ceramic-glaze finish with subtle glaze texture and a more premium visual character behind open wheels.
Street-Usable Cold Bite
Street Spec and Track-Day Spec rotors are designed for normal first-stop road use, including cold-weather operation. Motorsport Spec is the competition-focused exception.
Continuous Fiber Reinforcement
Long-fiber carbon ceramic construction improves structural strength and thermal durability versus chopped-fiber approaches.
Heat Management Note
Carbon ceramic rotors tolerate extreme surface temperature, but they do not remove every heat-management requirement. During repeated hard stops, heat can still soak into pads, fluid, seals, calipers, wheels, and nearby components. For long track sessions, mountain descents, or sustained aggressive driving, brake cooling and high-temperature fluid are still recommended.
Street / Track-Day / Motorsport Rotor Options
Street Spec
Ceramic coating, cross-drilled face, and large cooling channels.
Best for daily driving and premium street builds that need clean cold bite, low dust, corrosion-free appearance, and long service life.
Track-Day Spec
Ceramic coating, blank face, and honeycomb cooling channels.
Best for fast-road and track-day use where repeated braking stability matters more than maximum visual drilling style.
Motorsport Spec
Uncoated blank face with honeycomb cooling channels.
Best for race-focused builds that run competition pads, high-temperature fluid, cooling strategy, and a proper warm-up window. Not the default street choice.

EPB & Rear Caliper Options
This vehicle leaves the factory with an electronic parking brake (EPB) built into the rear brake, so the rear of the kit is built to keep that EPB working. There are two rear paths. The first is a dual-caliper rear: a main performance caliper handles braking while a dedicated EPB actuator caliper is retained alongside it, so the electronic parking brake, auto-hold, and hill-start assist all keep working; on this path the rear performance caliper can be the TTSPORT EP4 / EP4S 4-piston caliper. The second is an EPB-integrated caliper, a single rear caliper with the electromechanical parking-brake motor built in for a cleaner install with fewer parts behind the wheel; on this path the rear is the TTSPORT EP4 / EP4S 4-piston caliper with integrated EPB. Which path fits best depends on your exact trim and EPB configuration, your budget, your appearance preference, and your wheel size and spoke clearance. Confirm your car's rear-brake configuration with StopFlex before ordering so the correct EPB-compatible rear option is built for your kit.
| Rear option | What it is | Rear caliper | Best when |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dual caliper (EPB retained) | Performance caliper plus a dedicated EPB actuator caliper, both fitted on the rear, so the factory electronic parking brake keeps working. | TTSPORT EP4 / EP4S 4-Piston Caliper | You want guaranteed factory EPB, auto-hold, and hill-start behavior preserved. |
| EPB-integrated caliper | A single rear caliper with the electromechanical parking-brake motor built in, for a cleaner install with fewer parts behind the wheel. | TTSPORT EP4 / EP4S 4-Piston Caliper with integrated EPB | You want a cleaner single-caliper rear with full EPB function. |

FAQ
Will this 400mm kit fit my exact C6 A6, S6, or RS6?
Fitment is confirmed per vehicle, not assumed from the C6 chassis code. StopFlex checks the exact model, trim, hub/upright package, wheel size, wheel offset, and spoke clearance before building the brackets and rotor hats.
What wheels do I need for the 400mm front rotor?
The 400mm front carbon-ceramic rotor requires 20-inch or larger wheels. Wheel diameter alone is not enough; the Genuine Akebono OEM Audi RS 6-Piston (9N) Caliper also needs spoke clearance verified.
Will the electronic parking brake still work?
Yes. The rear kit uses the TTSPORT EP4 4-Piston Caliper with EPB, which keeps a dedicated EPB actuator piston separate from the hydraulic service pistons so the C6’s factory electronic parking brake function remains available.
Why choose carbon-ceramic over iron rotors on this car?
On a heavy Audi C6 used for fast street driving or repeated high-speed stops, carbon-ceramic rotors reduce brake dust and rotating mass while increasing heat capacity compared with a same-size iron setup. The payoff is most noticeable on open wheels, repeated braking, and front-end response.
