Mk6 Golf R brakes on a Mk5 GTI

Then these may be getting fitted rather much sooner than I first thought the would be! Yay!

Does anyone have the part numbers for the caliper bolts, or a link to where I can buy some? Searching around but I've not found any yet...

And also braided stainless steel brake lines, these seem to be no-where I've looked so far.

Hi
I have a full set of r32/s3 brakes front and rear including discs and pads and dust shields ready to bolt on from a low mileage r32, £550ono delivered 07746888846

Thanks for the offer, but I've just bought a front brake set up from a Golf R. Just need the final bolts as the old carrier ones can not be re-used.

Out of interest, what's the difference in size between the GTI and the R32/R rear disc dimensions?

Lets see some pics when you get the brakes fitted dude 


Don't forget I've got the huge golf R intercooler going very cheap , would be awesome on a mk5 gti  £100!!!!!!

Of course I shall show pictures! Keep an eye on my project thread (link is in my signature). Once I know exactly which bolts I need and where to get them from it shall be scheduled in for a re-fit. I still can't believe the difference in size between my stock GTI calipers and the R calipers!

They are great brakes , worked a treat on my golf R , main reason I changed to VWR kit was the 27 kg weight saving - it all helps on the R as its a heavy beast

In terms of stainless steel brake lines, could I buy Mk5 R32 front lines and fittings or do I need to specifically buy Mk6 Golf R lines?

Yes all the lines for the mk5 R32/ Audi S3 / Leon Cupra / Mk6 R are the same 
I can recommend the HEL kit, think the part number is 'VAG-10' iirc, this kit will also do away with the hard lines on the caliper as the HEL hose has an angled banjo bolt straight onto the caliper, usually around £50 for the front kit
