contorted fungus 0 Posted January 10, 2009 Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 hi there everyone need some help (read lots) my brother is wanting a vr6 engine dropping into his f reg mk2 gti 8valve. he misses the noise from his mk3 but loves the light weight of the mk2. just wondered if anyone has done a step by step guide with a list of parts required. if not then once i know what i am doing i will use this thread to do one with pics also the bay will be getting smoothed ( be rude not to).

mashed 0 Posted January 14, 2009 Report Share Posted January 14, 2009 Hello, I'm 90% Done, Easiest way for an F as is mine, Is to get all the 90 Spec Electrics from a MK2 (Either G or H Reg) (I went to an Auto Electrician and it cost £1800 for a car that still barely works)Fuel Pump, Loom, and so on,Then you need a Hydraulic Clutch Pedal box from a Corrado Mk3 Subframe (Mk2 Wishbones are fine if you want to keep standard track)Bigger front brakes (16v Hubs 280 Carriers and Calipers G60 Discs and Pads) You will need to dent the Chassis leg Like the VR Corrado The engine is a bit wider!And Bigger Master Cylinder to move the larger amounts of fluid, And a solid front mount off ebay!If Retaining MK2 Clocks the rev counter doesn't work and a mk2 1.3 Speedo and Accelerator CableAnd i think that's about it!I didn't go the 90 Spec route and it's taken a lot longer, I had a friend that did a 90 Spec in a weekend!CheersBrad Link to post Share on other sites
