GTI/G60 Caliper Test Fit + Massive Lorinser Calipers! ( MK3 VR6 )

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Im very please that my gti caliper test fit went well and once we have the g60 calipers and the rebuilt kit they will be a very nice upgrade! Also what started out as a joke its actually looking like the Lorinser calipers might just work!

    Brakes: early gti & VR are 280mm, they have a square hole on the top These are exact the same as g60 calipers Later gti & VR are 288, they have a trianglular hole on top As for rears there mainly the same but mk4 ones are aluminium

    I agree, the big ones would be cool, but using the g60 you would have all the wheels and plenty of room. Id also worry with those big brakes that they are dual piston and who knows if a mk3 master cylinder would even work with it

    @Christian smith I love how the brakes look and again great content but can i stress a point that i think may be a issue... It may be that i couldn't see the wheels alongside the car but was your tyres past your arch? If so how will you get around it ? New wheels with different offsets? Or will it just be a no go? Curious as to how this will look as i may encounter the same issue with my own project!

The Calipers from an Audi S3 8L, an Audi A3 or Mk3/MK4 GTI with the 288mm Brakediscs in kombination with caliper holder from the s3 and 312mm 5x100 Brakediscs from the S3.

    @@robertpineda577 The Brave Discs from the Audi S3 8L or the Golf MK4 V6 are 312mm and 5x100 they will fit to the axles of the MK3 GTI/VR6 with 5x100. The Brake calipers from ATE from the 288mm, 312mm brake on the MK3, MK4, S3 8l are all the same and could be used. Brake caliper holders are needed from an Audi S3 8L or Golf MK4 V6. The MK3 GTI/VR6 Brake Discs and Mk4 312mm Brake Discs have a little height Difference. To correct that difference you have to use a spacer or washers between the mounting holes on the axles an the caliper holder.

    You may want to also look at what braking psi the callaper needs. Running those big boys may take more then the stock booster can do, it depends on bore size of the master. If it dosent the pedal will just go the floor. There ways to work around it, and as with all things it will come down to cost to make it work. That being said, I hope it works!!

But I have done upgrades where I have had to change the master and the proportion valve had to be changed to keep the front from locking up under hard track use. Slapping it on and hoping that it will be fine, or engineering it to work right. I may sound old, but a married man has to put his safety first.
