your subframe retaining bolts were present then....
mine werent
if i'd have removed the front bumper on its own, the subframe would have dropped out!
Chris I would love to drop a VR into a MK2 mate, just couldn't find funds to do it. I'm jealous of yours fella!
My Goal was to get back behind a nice OEM 16ver, nothing fancy just rock solid and back to basics.
best way, it's less hassle, although it seems the fusebox fairys have attacked yours too...

Haa yeah just abit I had various electrical items removed the most annoying one was the screen heated washers due to the chalk bonnet they ripped out the pipes and electrics luckily I managed to get a whole new loom to the fuse box. also rewire the central locking the wires were shocking..... I don't mind the CE2 its pretty mapped out.
Well the subframe on mine was ok, but some bolts were not right the history of the car was the PAS rack had been changed out in 2006 got the paper work and I think the nuts holding the sub frame were pretty rounded.
They have been changed, but I've got polybushes to go into the new wishbones.
I'm not doing that untill I've dropped all brake and suspension out for complete overhalin.
Back seat belts are a pain. If mine slightly twist it stops. Its coming along well though. Love to see 16valves.
Yeah if I leave it long enough it will piss me off enough to fix it!
