Post by: golfyste on 14 January 2012, 16:16

Hey, does anyone know if these brakes off a late mk3 will fit a mk4?

There not standard mk3 brakes but I'm sure anything you can fit to a mk3 will somehow bolt to a mk4 maybe with little changes possibly  :undecided: They look like a nice set though probably 312-334 mm 4 pots nice  :cool:

I don't think so you need to make a bracket for the mk3 and i'm sure it's the same for mk4 but there is a company on piston heads who make the brackets for 4 pots you will have to have a search around for some, sorry i can't help anymore  :sad: might be worth asking were to get caliper adaptors from in the mk4 section  :smiley:

As long as the mk3 is 5 stud they should fit.

Yes the 312mm mk4 set up is a common conversion on a mk3.
