I'd suggest you either need to go full-wide-track, or keep it all narrow-track.
Don't think the subframe affects this - it's just the control arms and associated bits from one or t'other.

the ball joints will physically fit. youll want the longer mk3 driveshafts too if your using the mk3 wishbones. i think the subframe wont make any difference on what one you use, im sure its just the wishbones that are different

The subframe won't make any difference, especially as when I last checked the G3 TDI outside my house was narrow-track!
Control arms, balljoints, hubs, steering rack and arms required.
