Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled
After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.
Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

Because my gearbox gives me the $h!ts with it's noisy first gear and the extra cog up top would be great, I love 6 speeds.

Unfortunately the MK4 golfs box is not a direct bolt on job. I believe the housing fouls in a few spots. The same with the O2M I think although it can be done with some machining.Last edited by VWindahouse; 07-11-2012, 10:27 AM.Comment

There is some info on the BT build thread on Polo UK forum, don't think he goes on much any more...Comment

He had to machine away a couple of little spots IIRC and apart from that it was relatively straightforward.Originally posted by noone View PostComment

You're kidding right? You need to replace the flywheel and clutch and swap over the bell housing but what else changes with the gearbox?Originally posted by nightphotographer View PostI was thinking about 6 speed too - but a lot of work to do the conversion - might as well just go AWD
It's fitted to the GTD 9N3's in Sth Africa.
It's does weigh a fair bit more but it's supposed to be a lot stronger than the 02J/ROriginally posted by Bflat View PostLast edited by kaanage; 07-11-2012, 02:36 PM.Resident grumpy old fart

Starter, Linkages, Shifter, there's another part too I can't remember what it's called - I'm still new to all this, so I'm probably wrong, but it's not just a straight swap. I've just replaced my clutch and flywheel it's completely out of the question for me personallyOriginally posted by kaanage View Post

Only down side is you have to send them your original gear set to be upgraded which means down time as there in Czech Republic.
But the upside is you keep the same housing, clutch, flywheel etc.Comment

We need to have a group trip to Europe sometime - Worthersee 2013 and we can drop your gearbox internals off in CZ man!
