02A boxes are all hydro clutch. You can convert the box to cable clutch or convert the car to hydro clutch.

yeh all the mk4 golf gearbox's are hydraulic, i jsut converted the my mk1 pedal to hydraulic by cutting a hole int he bulkhead bolting the mastercylinder in and then making brakes and so on for it to work correctly and then used the mk4 slave cylinder and clutch line

VR6 box no good as its different bell housing, same goes for V5, R32/36 etc. basically, you need a 4 pot one
