Yes, you have the later pedal box so the cylinder will just clip on.

I'm going to up rate my brakes using a combination of mk2 gti hubs and mk3 gti carriers and calipers.....do I need to install ABS?

Are the drive shafts on my1.4  different to drive shafts on a 16v gti? And are the hub carriers different to a 16v gti.....basically I want to know why I can't just bolt 280mm g60 discs on to my existing hubs and just upgrade my calipers if needed?
