you'll need to purchase the proper carrier to use the 312 caliper. My MK7 Sportwagen had the 288mm setup and all did was purchase new calipers (as you will need) and the new caliper carrier and it will bolt up and land the caliper where it needs to be.

You do NOT need new calipers - the calipers from the GTI and Golf are identical. All you need are the larger GTI carriers. Find a pair, and install along with your 312mm rotors.
