basically i just needed to know the difference in the shells

i plan to get the rear beam etc off a gti at a later stage also the front subframe etc so i can fit uprated arb's.

Are there any wiring differences between the gti and lesser models that would prevent me from using the q peng harness (do i have to revire the front of the car t gti spec)

I see the point in fuel systems but most pumps on cheap gti's will be shagged so will need replacing any way so can new items just be fitted to a 1.3 for example (new gti versions)

I know this will all cost but i plan for it to be a long term project and just keep using my valver daily.

Shell is 100% identical, only diff is what bits are bolted to it ;)

Ideally you want to get a late spec (post 90, hazard switch on the column) as then MK3/Corrado/Passat engines/dash clocks etc will plug straight in as the fuseboxes are the same.  Doesn't matter too much either way, but it just makes it slightly easier ;)
