A Velocity 1.6 gearbox can potentially fit on a Golf 2 GTI 8V, but modifications may be necessary. It's important to consider compatibility with mounts, driveshafts, and the overall gearing ratios. It's recommended to consult with a mechanic or a specialist familiar with Volkswagen modifications to ensure a proper fit and function.
Does velocity dash fit in Golf MK1
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.
No, a Mk3 Golf GTI gearbox will not fit a Mk2 GTI directly. The two models have different gearbox mounting points and designs, which means modifications would be necessary for it to fit. Additionally, the Mk3 features a hydraulic clutch system, while the Mk2 uses a cable-operated system, further complicating compatibility.
no
No they fit different, although mk2 and mk3 and some mk4 polo gearboxes will fit. You want an 8P gearbox.
yes i just put my 8v box on my 16v bolts straight on
Yes, albeit new engine and gearbox mounting need to be fabricated.
Only if it has a completely different gearbox (with overdrive) fitted. You would then have to find an engine to fit the gearbox. You may have problems fitting this into the bodyshell, so I suggest you source a secondhand body from a car that will fit the engine and gearbox. Maybe you could fit the body from the car you took the engine and gearbox out of? Then all you need is an interior, driveshafts, brakes, wheels etc. and the job is done!
To fit a Golf Mk3 gearbox, first, ensure the vehicle is on a level surface and securely supported on jack stands. Remove the battery, driveshafts, and any components obstructing access to the gearbox, such as the exhaust and starter motor. Unbolt the old gearbox from the engine and the mounting points, then carefully lift it out. Position the new gearbox in place, secure it to the engine and mounts, and reassemble the removed components in the reverse order.
No the mountings are different and the gearbox ratios won't be able to pull the heavier golf. Also you will need a custom ECU for the new engine timings. I would just find another 1.4 golf engine if u need one.
Yes, a Mk2 Golf GTI gearbox can fit a Mk2 Golf Driver, as both models share a similar platform and drivetrain components. However, it's important to ensure compatibility with the engine and other related components, as variations in gear ratios and mounting points may exist. Always consult a professional or refer to specific vehicle manuals for detailed guidance before proceeding with such modifications.
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.
