Want this question answered?
Yes, I have it done on mine. The MK3 2.0 gearbox fails when it gets to high mileage. The Mk2 1.8 gearbox is bulletproof.
Need more detail... Which mk1 and which mk2? (Year/Engine/Spec/Box type, ie '83 1.8 GTI, Manual) Depends on gearbox fitted to either.
Yes, a starter motor from a 1.6 will fit a 1.8 and vice versa.
9a gearbox
yes i just put my 8v box on my 16v bolts straight on
No they fit different, although mk2 and mk3 and some mk4 polo gearboxes will fit. You want an 8P gearbox.

Most if not all 4 cylinder VAG engines will fit in a mk2 Golf. However it will be much cheaper to buy a GTI rather than convert a non-GTI model once you factor in ancillary items such as GTI-spec front brakes, rear discs, a change of wiring loom, etc.
yes...but you have to change and modify a few engine mounts and so on. And modify or change the whole el-wiring in the car
There isnt one.
One can purchase a used VW Golf GTI MK2 at local car dealerships or websites such as GumTree, Pistonheads, Car and Classic, mobile.de, finn.no and the auction website eBay.
