Agent47:
Looking for whole new rear brakes. Is a 6n setup the same? Struggling to find backing plates

hayesey:
I used 200mm passat ones on mine, needs the full setup to match.  I think from a mid-80s passat, not sure those parts will be available though.

I highly suspect 6n ones will be a direct fit, even on fairly recent polos they look identical! 

Agent47:
I have a Passat setup on there at the moment, but I think they're 230mm and the car likes to swap ends on harsh braking. Bigger is not always better.

hayesey:
yeah I havwe a bias valve inside the car too so I can set & adjust it,  normally have it set to not send much to the back at all

steveo3002:
6n is same bolt holes ...what do you want a whole swap ?

later cars have non taper bearings ...so just grab the whole lot and bolt on  , mk3 golfs have a bigger drum that again swaps over as a whole lump
