No way, that was a coincidence smile

How much power are you running? 312mm set ups on both my daily mk4s are more than up to the job

All the info about pretty much every kit you can fit to the mk4 is already out there in the internet just google it. Including all the part numbers for calipers etc etc

Hi mate some of the stuff online is a bit misleading and the part numbers for the calipers are a mind field 😂

Which adapters did you buy and where from? They will be specifically made for a specific caliper.

That’s the caliper you need then.

OK cool it's just on one website it says there's two calipers with the same number but one set is for the rear and won't fit on a golf
