Rear mk5 gti brake calipers same as touran?

[AIR_CHILLED]

Hi,
I'm interested to know if the vw rear calipers on a Touran are the same fitment including handbrake lever mechanism?
The reason I'm asking is that a few sellers on eBay are listing them as one and the same but significantly cheaper!
Visually they look the same (I'm aware the carrier size may be different) but do they have bigger pistons to accommodate passengers etc, like the caddy 2k calipers?

If they are it would be a cheaper mod for anyone looking to replace or upgrade.

Thanks,
Mike.

caliper is the same, carrier is different, i have 286mm calipers and carriers on ebay for £80

i have gti 286mm rear discs and carriers on my touran with touran calipers as the gti ones i had were goosed

Great thanks for your reply, I'm guessing piston size and lever / bracket assemble are the same Touran vs gti?

Didn't need to swap anything over apart from carrier correct?

yes bud, just disc, splash shield and carrier
