Mk5 gti standard brakes
« on: June 02, 2017, 09:41:42 am »
Just curious if the mk5 standard brakes differ from those on the normal golf I would say they're most likely a larger brake disk?

312, yes.

I'll hazard a guess and say:

R32 345mm
GTI 312mm
2.0 FSI/Diesel 288mm
1.4/1.6 FSI 280mm


2007 ED30 | 2009 TDI 140 | 2016 BMW 330D

It wouldn't be fun if it was easy, I just wish it wasn't this much fun.
