6:30 - You can also use the Passat rear brakeline "8E0611775J" It is a direct replacement part, bolts right up!
wow thanks for sharing. 👊🏼 top info
I bought a Golf mk3 VR6 rear beam today with the stub axle and break carrier, no brake calipers, no disc brakes, no inner & outer bearing, etc... (I'll mount it on my mk2 Golf btw)
Next to it I found a Polo mk3 GTI (6N2) rear suspension with just the brake calipers missing. As I looked closely, it's the version where you can bolt on directly a brake carrier without a need for an adapter like you use. I think the OEM numbers are 6N0 501 117 and 6N0 501 118.
Do you think it will bolt on the mk3 rear beam? if so, which disc brakes & caliper & carrier combination will work on it?
I'll buy it next time if so. Or I'll just bet on it and buy it and will look for disc/caliper/carrier combination later 😂and share here the results (might take some time though)
can i use the hud of a vw mk4 with the vw polo stud axle?
at 0:40 from what car i can get that part is it for drums or brake disks
Where can we buy this adapter plate?
Rear Wheel bearing? OEM number please.. i can find only 5x100 with no ABS ring on it(from polo 9n) please help
What factory number of carrier did you use? Pls I cant find it.
What is the part number for the ABS ring you used? I’m about to order a pair of 9N hubs and the Epytec adapter ring. Do you have to take the current one off before fitting the Epytec one?
Where do these parts i want my mk2 golf to be 5 hole so that it fit 5 hole rim
Hi. Sorry, but google is my friend. Looking at the link, I have a question about the part. At 4:50, I am interested in the size of the part.
Thanks for the reply!

just curious. if you have a front 312mm.. and this on the back. how much is it going to affect brake bias?
With 312's it wouldn't be too different over a std mk4 platform cars running 312 front and 256 rear, it become's more of an issue on lighter cars like at the rear of mk2's with no ABS and people not setting and adjusting the rear bias valve spring tension on the rear beam right. On this mk3.5 with 312 front, 256 rear, ABS and a half decent set of 205 tyres brake so so well.
I'd like to buy those bracketz
do you have the part number of the vw polo stud hud? or what year of vw polo is where I can get those parts?
The Polo is early 9N with twin headlights, from 2001 to 2004
You say TT rear calliper but what age? I have bought a Jetta and read brakes look identical to this and I have been struggling to figure out what calliper is on it to replace (sticking)
I think I say in the video all mk4 platform cars, mk1 TT, Seat Leon cupra R, Audi s3 Golf mk4 R32 and 2.8 V6 as well as maybe the odd Skoda. mk4 platform
I have Passat b4 with discs in the rear the small non vented ones 4x100
What do I need to make it 256 vented ones?
I'm not 100% on the B4 as I know the rear beam is slightly different....But I'll guess you'll need more or less all the parts shown in the video.
Where did you get the extended hub bolts from? Standard is 10x32 so guessing it would be 10x42 for use with this plate?
Got them off eBay m10x45 12:9
@@RestoDesignsnandothanks! And did you buy the hub with the ABS ring fitted already?
Can I use mk4 calipers like the ones you've taken off but use tt carriers as mk3 golf carriers aren't wide enough for vented
As long as they are Vented mk4 calipers then yes, otherwise no as the non vented ones aren't wide enough, like the carriers.
@@RestoDesignsnando hi again I have the same calipers you taken off mk4 aluminium vented type plan is to get some cupra r rear carriers and m12 bolts to widen it to fit vented like in your video great swap
@@michaelvilliers266 ok perfect. Glad you found this video helpful.
If I wanted to add vented to the rear of my mk3 Gti (more for show than anything else) is it as simple as removing the disc/bearing and replacing it with a TT hub? And replacing the callipers discs pads and carriers?
Oh and maybe shaving the dust guard?
Or will I need to do the stubs as well?
You'll need a way to bolt on the calliper carries as on the mk4 platform cars they bolt on to the rear beam/arms if it's 4x4. That is why you need plates like these ones.
@@RestoDesignsnando mine a mk3,
@@LouisCleaver Yes I know, You'll need plates to be able to bolt the carries to mate.
@@RestoDesignsnando ahh ok,
the existing stub axle has the plate built in doesn’t it
@@LouisCleaver yes the old stub axle has mounting points, the mk4 platform stub axles do on, watch the video man lol
Is there any change to the rear track width with this kit? Do the 10mm adaptors increase the rear width over the stock setup? Cheers
Yes the rear track will be wider by the thickness of the adapters, in this case the adopters add 10mm to each side, adding 20mm total across the axle.
@@RestoDesignsnando you can use polo 6n2 6n3 gti stub axel this ones have mounting holes for the stock rear calipers you only need some adapters foor the s3 calipers then but you can buy these by epytec in germany.
you keep the stock track wide this way.
@@rkstuntz5278 Very turn, unfortunately those are almost imposable to find second hand and VW discontinued them years ago. They also came on the Seat Ibiza 6k2 cupra 1.8T 20V
@@rkstuntz5278 can you elaborate on which adapters are needed because I already have Ibiza stub axels.
Edit: I believe I found adapters on epytec but that set up requires W8 Passat caliper carriers.
Hello mate I am currently in the process of doing this conversion on my mk3 golf vr6...I have got all the parts...the only thing that I'm struggling with is....how do u put the abs adapter ring onto the hub??
I have the exact same question cause the hubs i bought have a different magnetic sensor
@catana bogdan hello mate I actually completed this conversion on my vr6 a few weeks ago....so basically what u have to do is order mk3 abs ring adapter from epytec...the ones that you have on the polo rear hubs..Will bang off with a chisel and hammer....and then u lightly bang the eptec adapter ring onto the hub and then put the abs ring on...I hope that helps
Thank you for the info! Just ordered them.
@@rcboyztoyz6804hi, do you have a link or part number for the ABS ring and hub you got? And when you took the old ring off the hub was it a pain in the ass?
@joeboycott147 hello mate....it was little while ago.....as far as I can remember the abs rings weren't that hard to take of...they just hammered off with a chisel....
I can use that stuff in my mk2 without ABS? I'm still a beginner in these things
Yes totally, ABS isn't a must have, 👍🏼
Hey! Thank you a lot!
When you use a polo 6n2 GTI with 8n bearing and passat W8 caliper carrier you don't go 10mm wider😉
Yep totally, but unfortunately VW stopped them in 2018. 🥲
Hello Resto Designs,
I am trying to locate the parts but all I find for the Polos and Ibizas as you mention are different in appearance. I have a 1997 MK3-VR6 and I have an issue with the stub axle. Got one form an Ibiza 6L with the only issue that the ABS sensor does not fit ....
Can you please share the part-numbers for the stub axle on the video?
Many thanks
Also, can you share your facebook link? The one I get on here sends me to a place in Portugal. Is that you?
@@janne3639 many thanks !!!
@@janne3639 I have a 1997 3dr VR6 and I have installed the brembo 323mm fronts and now am about to do the rears. After my plan is to do headwork and cams and have a street/track car. Send me some pics of your car korsou@hotmail.com please.
What are your plans for it?
Hello, I can't see the part number for the 5x100 and older ABS ring. Can you share it with me?
Show 💝🤙
Boas, e obrigado amigo.
Hey great work! can I use 256 mm 4/100??
I don't know, you would need to check the disc offset mate. I'm guessing all you would need to do is use a thicker or thinner spacer.
@@RestoDesignsnando thanks
4x100 front disk from VW UP! Has same specs as rear r32 disks in 4x100 bolt pattern, therefore can be used in this conversion.
VW P/N for disks is 1S0615301
Howya great vid any link on the adapter plate kit with the bolts thanks
Hi there, at the moment they have sold out.
@@RestoDesignsnando any idea when will they be back in stock? Also do you know will the break lines (both flexi and steel the one pices ones ) off a 3.5 will be a direct fit onto a mk3 axle and the rear axle flexis thanks
Hi sorry about the late reply, hopefully in the new year. The mk3.5 rear axle is the same as the mk3 one, so the hard lines & flex ones are plug n play.
@@RestoDesignsnando perfect I found your fb page I'll drop ya a mail on there so when the adapter kit is in stock you can give me a shout straight away thanks if that's cool with you
You can buy adaptor plate from Lupo GTI directly from VW dealer
Does the 15” wheels fit 256mm rear brake?
yes it will. 👍🏼
Hi did you also replaced the proportioning valve to a mk3
Hi there, do you mean the bias valve that it near the rear beam? If you have ABS then no need to, but otherwise yes you make a good point, due to the better braking you may need to adjust the valve if the rear brakes start locking up.
@@RestoDesignsnando Hi , yes near the beam . How do you adjust the bias valve/ proportioning valve?
@@mechanicalmanny494 There will be a spring type thing that connects the rear beam to the valve, It will be held in place with a 13mm nut & bolt, you loosen that and you'll be able to adjust the amount it moves which adjusts the brake pressure going to the rear brakes.
@@RestoDesignsnando I have done that after I replaced it a year ago but will look into it again Thank You👍
Is there a 4 lug rotor that will work for this swap?
Maybe the mk2 256mm front dices could be made to work.
Ibiza 6k2 cupra should work i guess
Do you need to upgrade the brake master cylinder too?
If it's a mk3 GTI 16V VR6 then no the standard 23.5mm is ok, if it's a lower spec mk2 with a 7" servo and 18mm master then yes upgrade to a 9" servo and 22mm or 23.5mm master cylinder.
Reason I ask is, I’m building a corrado with 312mm brakes at the front snd standard 239mm in the rear and I’m wondering what servo and master cylinder to use
@@stevenharpervw OK this mk3.5 cab also has 312's up front, servo and master (23.5mm) are standard with ABS and works really really well, I think most Rado's are 22mm unless it's a late VR6 with ABS then it'll most likely have a 23.5 one as std.
Ah, ok so I need to get a 23.5 master and a 9 in servo
@@stevenharpervw All Rado's came with 9' servo's as standard. So just 23.5mm mk3 master.
Where did u get the adapter plate?
I have them water cut for me, will have the next 10 sets out soon.
@@RestoDesignsnando u sell them?
Hi, can you email me a drawing of this adapter?
Thank you in advance!!!
You have a 4 lug kit?
Just use the Polo 6N2 4 lug bearing, but you'll have to de drill the discs, or try your luck with a set of 256mm front discs, but I think the disc offset is different.
@@RestoDesignsnando I found a Seat Ibiza sealed hub, that is a direct swap for a mk3/2 4 lug.
Invest in a jack stand. I know with brakes your not under it, but doesnt mean it injure your arms.
Yes you are 100% right safety first always!
do you know where to buy the mounting kit or do you have the cad filelazer cut them myself
Hi there, yes we have these in stock if you're after a set.
@@RestoDesignsnando where can i find them do you have a website or ebay store or something thanks
@@RestoDesignsnando do you have a link to the adapter plates i want to do the conversion
Hud mk4 ???
Polo 9N from 2001-2004.
my question is if the vw mk4 5x100 hubs fit in the stud axle of a vw polo?
where is link for KIT ? "And then the kit to mount them up.................... Link coming soon."
I ended up getting my kit from creation motor sport, you if you have abs you will also need adaptors not shown in the video to mount your abs rings onto the hubs. I got Mine from epytec. (I think they do the disc kit too)
Where’s the link for plates??
They are out of stock at the moment, hoping to have another 10 sets in very soon.
What’s the website mate please
@@the_br4es_brothers766 ebay store, once in I'll message you mate.
@@RestoDesignsnando can you message me to?
@@viktorvucov9749 yes totally
Parts list? Parts numbers?
Parts are listed and shown at the start of the video mate, also added in the description.
Link to the kit??
