Lol Gav, do u need to ask?
Of course!
After a long search trying to find some 312 brakes, I tracked some down locally on a wrecking Audi TT. I'll have to order some new discs and pads early this week so I can install them next weekend but gave them a fresh coat of paint today.
Unfortunate that I found these so soon after putting the DBA T2 discs and Remsa pads on, but figured if anyone wants to replace their front brakes I can pass them on. They've only done 1 x HL session, and only probably 2000kms, so practically new. Any takers?![]()

Quick post for those interested.
Turns out the last set of callipers I got off the Audi TT were 288mm brackets (we can only assume at some point someone had swapped the 312mm's out for whatever reason). Dan (pazuzzu) Is going to put those calipers to use though on the standard sized rotor setup.
Luckily I tracked down a wrecked 4 motion V6 bora so I grabbed the callipers off those which had the correct 312mm brackets. They arrived yesterday and got a chance to test fit them tonight to make sure they sit nicely behind my wheels with clearances, which they do, but its very snug indeed.
Got a couple pics of the before and after fitment. The calipers are off at the moment to be cleaned up and painted, then they will be properly fitted.
