Title: Mk2 GTI, needs gearbox - what are my options?
Post by: 007.james.blonde on 12 March 2012, 18:03

Hi guys,

I have been advised by the wise at Autohaus Dolby to get a gearbox for Oak green. She is a 1992 8-valver with some choice (and some not-so-choice) mods, but I guess the most important one in this context is the Quaife ATB diff. I am new to the mk2-ownership scene, and have a few questions for the wise of golfgtiforum:

1. What 'boxes are available to me? i.e. what codes can will fit?
2. Is there one that will best accommodate the diff?
3. I plan to get a 'box and refurbish it before it goes in, is there any point in buying a minter if this is my intention?

Your help is greatly appreciated, thanks in advance,

James.
