hi,

 

good thread,

 

i have a engine less 1990 Kr 16v and have just got my hands on a cheap mk3 golf VR6.

 

Am i right in thinking that i could unbolt the whole subfame, engine and running gear from the golf and it would fit into the corrado...... ?

or would that be too easy...........?

 

i've done the conversion. yes you can do as you mention. only difference being the front subframe if corrado specific, the rear needs slight modification by means of shortening and two new holes creating.

i see,

 

so would getting hold of a corrado vr front and rear subfame make it easier..?

Yes definitely. The rear subframe is obsolete now though IIRC, so it'll be a s/h part only.
