- From memory you use the Audi 90 disc rotor (DBA445) and need to ream it out slightly larger just to fit over the axle flange. Standard 4x108pcd will fit.
- Bracket bolts on to diff casing, calliper bolts to bracket.
- You will need a cable handbrake setup either from a R31/Pintara etc or make a custom one up.
- And of course hydraulic lines which are pretty standard, but keep in mind it is a floating calliper design so you need flexible lines (for the final connection to the calliper anyway).
Thinks thats basically it if others want to add/correct me..

No not the stud holes.
The single large centre alignment hole (is there a proper name for this?). Measure the axle flange, and then you'll know how much to take it out by.

As far as i know, All you need to do is machine down the outside edge of the axle hub so it fits inside the disc, the stud hole and centre hole already fit,
