As far as I know the 1.8 & 2.0 16v have 254mm brakes & the VR6 & G60's have the 280mm brakes. I did the 256mm conversion on my Scirocco which I believe is the same setup as on the your 16v. Godd place for info is http://the-corrado.net/wiki/index.php/Category:General_Corrado_Info

If they are 5 stud then they are either off a mk3 gti or corrado/golf vr6, the only corrado with 280 discs and four studs was the g60
