Can you find OEM 20mm longer pug ones that have the floating washers? I found some random ones but as i tightened them they were pulling through the holes.

What size discs you go for? 283mm?
I tried this project, with 283 (gti 180) discs everything fits/lines up perfect, the only problem was spacers with my 17" vortex wheels.
I didn't want to change the wheels so quit the project  |
Yeah 283mm discs mate.
Im buying spacers with the longer bolts, so all should be well.
I'll post up more pictures once they get fitted on Saturday

Brakes have been on for a week, but due to me breaking the bleed nipple on the rear caliper, I cannot bleed the system 100%, so i STILL haven't felt the power of these bad boys 
Going to my local scrap yard tomorrow, to purchase a nice old caliper for 25 english pounds. So should give you an update on the weekend with regards to how powerful the brakes are
