so your mk2 front cross member is un-modified? mine has the mk3 centre section (including front engine mount) welded into the original mk2 cross member  :huh:

LOL... yeah... Who did that?  They need welding up!

Completley un modified using a solid mount.

hmm OK i got the impression the mk2 subframe couldnt take the VR6 block, hence the mk3 centre welded in...

im no expert though  :laugh:

It can mate. The position s exactly the same, although the mount on the vr sits at a lot more flat angle unlike the 8/16v.
What you need is a solid mount from a guy called duff on eBay, or a vibratechnics mk2 vr mount (lots of monieeeeesss)

cheers buddy. worth knowing as the cross member doesnt look brilliant, the welding is a bit agricultural!

so i'll be on the lookout for a complete mk2 front cross member and mk2vr6 solid front engine mount  :smiley:
