Mk2 16v 02a mountings

Post by GtiTuned »

Hi guys. Been years since iv posted something here.. needed the mk2 gurus thoughts on this

My 16v is an original kr model 1.8 16v
iv upgraded the gearbox to 02a type cable shift

Everything bolts up mounting wise but on careful inspection things look a bit odd. cv seems closer to subframe on the lft side ie. gbox side.
Am using all the kr engine mounting brackets and 02a (cable shift) gearbox mounting brackets from a late model mk2.

After some research it appears that i require a mk2 9a rear engine mounting bracket....?? (to push the motor fwd)

Do i require a 9a front mounting (starter) bracket too?? the kr and 9a look the same to me
Is the abf mk3 rear engine mounting bracket the same as a 9a mk2 mounting?
Is the hydraulic rear engine mounting 9a(on subframe) different to the solid kr (subframe) mounts?

Comments ....

On a side note looks like the g60 mount brackets are the same as the 9a 16v

so i will require the rear engine mount bracket
and the front engine mount bracket

as they differ to the kr 16v type.

Anybody know where i can find this locally?

Thanks. Iv spoken to them and they don't stock it or even fabricate it but awaiting a call back to see if they can still help me.

The mounting brackets I require are:
1. 357 199 273 Front starter mounting bracket

2. 357 199 354 or 535 199 354c Rear Engine mount bracket

If anybody has this for me to purchase or even to copy so I can fabricate it .

It comes oem on a 9a or g60 engine

Thanks
