    Sell your VR, and use the money to buy a mk 2 VR. Best of both worlds.

    Haha I did think if I got a good mk2, I could use mine as the donor but I don't think I could rip mine apart although if it ever gets damaged beyond repair that's definitely an option. I don't think it'd be easy to sell mine and pick up an already converted mk2 vr? Surely there aren't that many around.

    I know of about 5 in the country.

    Mine will be for sale again soon, just getting to the tail end of fixing a number of small things up

    Just thought I'd update this in case anyone was wondering what was going on. I intended on checking out the mk2 but before I could it sold hopefully it shows up on here. Looked like a nice car so decided I'm just going to finish off my mk3 for now.

    Final update on this. Spoke to the guy who was selling that mk2 GTI today (girlfriends friends fiance). Turns out he sold it for $750 the problem with it was something in the cat. New cat and away it goes as good as new. wish I had pulled the trigger on it. What a bargain of a mk2

    the problem with the auto was that they were using dexron 3, sure way to ruin the tranny, and yes the cat converter was blocked. both cheap fixes
