To make the engine work you'll need 9A (2.0L 16V) pistons and to re-bush the rods to fit. Also an 020 transmission would be fine with that combo, save some time and money.
If you make something idiot proof, a better idiot will come along.

I've kept it all MK1 and MK2 on my truck and have been pretty pleased... MK4 stuff would look out of place in my opinion.
I personally feel that rear discs are a solution without a problem on caddys.
wanted: early MK2 Golf or Jetta GTD rear badge -- any reasonable condition

you have no idea what you are talking about, do you?![]()

same here. op can substitute a lot of the mk4 parts for mk3 and achieve the same look but cheaper.
ie drivers edition knob, single din radio with aux in etc.
also, nothing wrong with a wish list... nothing worse than redoing whole car and finishing with a mess of parts that look/work horribly together.![]()

that list is very do-able!
ABA swap are a dime a dozen and with the info on vortex can be done for cheap and in one day! all the rest is basic. Save your oney and dont loose focus!

Go mk4 seats, nicer seats and easy swap.
If it ain't diesel, get outta my way.
