Very subtle mod, Genuine VW Cluster, Both Clusters included in the VW bo...

The MK4 Cupra used AP 4 pots, but they had Seat Sport on them, not AP.

Most of the VAG range use the same mounting points and they are all pretty much interchangeable, so if they fit go for it, AP stuff is top quality gear!

Those are the ideal ones to buy.

They come with everything you need.

You have to swap the calipers and carriers on the Polo to go to 312mm.

I fitted that kit on mine. Its a straight bolt on job.

Incorrect, the internals of the 210-225 engines are different and stronger. Check the part numbers. . . .

Polo's are pretty boring The GTI's are just basic cars with bigger engine put in, with no real though about the real engineering required. The suspension setup is utterly garbage, front strut/arb design is crap, clonking and no adjustment possible. The brakes are crap, and they use an old ABS system...

Depends which gearbox code your is, mine was an HWY (if i remember rightly) which shares the diff with an early 1998 to 2001 Golf 02J) The GTI had 3 codes, so it may share the diff with the changed 02J diff used in later golfs.
