craggsy 91 Posted July 1, 2012 Report Share Posted July 1, 2012 Someone is selling one on Club GTI I noticed. Its OBD1 but easy enough swap Link to post Share on other sites
VIW28 29 Posted July 1, 2012 Report Share Posted July 1, 2012 Yup, mine should have one in it by the end of this week. If you can get the loom made up and get a downpipe sorted from UM it's not that hard to do. Gets more complicated when you use the 02M 6 speed box and add some boost lol Link to post Share on other sites

bungy 2 Posted July 3, 2012 Report Share Posted July 3, 2012 Paul Parkies is running a 4mo engine with a turbo connected and it took best performance at the Janspeed Rolling road day. Might be worth speaking to him. Link to post Share on other sites
Vw_owner 1 Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 does the engine from a golf 4 motion fit into the mk3 vr6 ??????yep it fits straight in useing the same mounts and gearbox as the 12v vr6, you have to modify the down pipe or buy the conversion DP , the real task is getting the electrics working as the mk4 loom needs spliceing with the mk3 fusebox side engine loom for it to work , i had my immo and immisions stuff defeated in the ecu so i can use my original clocks and not have to worry about the immobiliser, if you can sort out the wireing yourself then i wouldnt worry, but if you need to have someone do it for you then make sure you get the loom back in your hands before you start tareing your car to bits!
