Rear Disc backing plate tester

[annavr6 10]

Hi All

 

We at Heritage decided to re manufacture a reproduction version. They are currently available genuine but as we all know eventually the supply will dry up and i wanted to get these done before that happened.

 

These are for the rear with 226mm discs which i believe is all corrado models

 

We have done mk1 and also corrado front VR6 ones recently that have been really good and we are now awaiting the stock

 

Does anyone want to test fit these for me. In exchange for the usual photos and feedback you can also keep them

This probably aint the place so please delete if need be, but is there a 280 rear shield compatible for the vr? Ta

Hi

 

There was only ever one size available which fits all models including VR6

 

We are currently re making front shields for VR6 280mm discs.

Thanks for the reply. Yup, I'm aware that they only made the one. Being the awkward git I've gone and got the 280 rear conversion from the states which is now lacking a shield. Thought maybe someone would know if a shield from a golf/polo whatever could possiblky work... even with some minor modding. Meh, twas a fanciful punt.

I did wander if you had the conversion as funnily enough myself and Julian were talking about this conversion yesterday. No nothing we will be doing will work for you im afraid as we are only doing OEM original parts currently.

Was just wandering what you might use for 280mm rears, a bit of a hunt through ETKA tells me Phaetons had 280mm and bigger rear discs, I wander if you could adapt one from here to work for you. The really early ones show available still at 15.60 per side, the later ones are a little more money, probably too much considering you may need to modify to make them work

I'm glad I asked :D Not too bothered about cost really. I'll look into the Phaetons. Cheers, m'dear.

It may be completely wrong (un modifiable) but you dont get a good image on ETKA of what it really looks like.

 

T4 also has rear disc of 280mm, they rear back plates list for 300 and 350mm

 

T5s also have a rear disc of 294mm so that might be useable

 

New Golf R looks like 310mm on the rear, another to look at
