4th Generation Front brake swap is it possabile???

i was curious if you can swap front brakes from a v6 camry to a i4 camry i got this idea from my car (the camry is the wifes car) i have a 01 audi a4 and to upgrade the front brakes on an audi you get caliper carries from a tt and rotors from an a8 install them a poof you have 12.3 inch brakes from 11.3 are you able to get calipers, carriers and rotors from a v6 camry and will they bolt up???

i know that a camry really does need this but the one time you need to stop in a big hurry every little bit helps

no, 15s are what you need for the v6 front brakes

if you had the 14" rims, then they wouldn't fit

hell, if you really wanted you could try and snag one of the Ericsol Relocation Brackets and use the V6 Camry calipers with some Supra TT rotors...I mean, if you really want to stop in a hurry.
