Do Mk3 golf VR6 and GTi 8v have the same breaks?

Question

As per the title really - I have scored the disks on my VR6 and was wondering if I can take the ones off my old 8v and swap them? Don't worry I'll be buying new pads! ha ha

By the way - don't worry the 8v is going to the scrappy - I'm not planning to sell it like that!

Answer 1

no the wont ha ha

Answer 2

I think so: Double check your dates & models here though;

They both appear to be 288 x 25mm 5 hole vented.

Answer 3

They do not. the VR6 has 11.3 inch rotors and the 8v's have 11 in rotors. I found out the hard way, I ordered 11's for my GTI and the business owner called me to make sure I got the right ones.  

Answer 4
