reggiebaby 10 Posted June 5, 2016 Hi all, looking at getting ready for mot and know I need to sort brakes is it worth upgrading I think I've read on here about upgrading to 280mm g60 setup. Any advise greatfully received thanks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seanl82 23 Posted June 5, 2016 Don't look specifically for G60, the vr6 280mm setup is the same. The mention G60 just hikes prices up for those unaware though mate. Again, mk3 Golf GTI from previous 95 use 280mm front setup too, so you can widen your search which should make availability plentiful. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VEEDUBBED 0 Posted June 5, 2016 Vr brake discs are 5 bolt compared to the g60's 4 bolt pattern.. Same thing applies to the mk3 golfs. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
reggiebaby 10 Posted June 5, 2016 Thanks for the info guys, I was wondering about the bolt pattern is the upgrade worth doing at the moment the brakes are poor. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dragon green 4 Posted June 5, 2016 Worth doing,just get G60 discs,and/or Vr calipers,calipers are the same on Vr and G60 Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seanl82 23 Posted June 5, 2016 Sorry yeah, thats what I was getting at in my original post. The calipers are the same across all I've mentioned, just stud pattern on the disks are different. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
