Title: Will the mk5 312mm front brake setup fit a mk4?
Post by: MoMartin on 16 November 2014, 22:07

I've had a search for it but I can't seem to find anything regarding a mk5 to mk4 brake setup.
Does anyone know if this can be done? As I'm after a 312mm setup, but can only find a mk5 brake setup for sale that isn't brand new. Thanks, Mo

Mo, plenty on ebay. Try other forums, edition38, ukmkivs etc...

I've seen the brand new ones on ebay, but I'd rather not pay 80 to 100 quid for some carriers.

And the problem with people braking them is that a lot of people want you to come and remove the part yourself, but annoyingly I don't have the tools required to remove them in Manchester

Just bought myself a vrs caliper, carrier, discs and almost new pads for 76 quid.
