i would have thought you would need to use the subframe from the mk3 tbh... just going on what happens with many other engine conversions... trial and error i guess though...


noble tuned - and still not fast enough!

Use the mk3 subframe - bolts straight in.

Keep the mk2 ones - unless you are planning to use all the mk3 stuff and have a widetrack
