    I seem to think they are TSR mounts to fit a VR6 into a Mk2 Golf...but they are years old, I've never used them and I'm struggling to remember what they are.

    Anyone confirm?

    Cheers,
    Glen.

    Black one certainly looks like it could be a mount that bolts to the engine block on a VR

    Cheers Andy...so the black one is the back engine mount for a VR6 > Mk2
    What's the plated one?
    Gearbox?
    Front?

    Plated one looks to me like the mount that bolts to the Gearbox, the bolt pattern looks curved like the bell housing bolts - equivalent of the little powdercoated one in my pics

    I guess the purpose of these mounts was to allow the VR engine and 02A box to be hung of a regular MK2 subframe?

    That'll be it...

    Yeah, they were bought many mons ago (late 90s) to fit a VR into a Mk2 on the original subframe.
    I got them with a corrado I bought (as a write off) from a mate who was going to put al the running gear into a Mk2.

    I think they were produced by TSR years ago...but that'll make sense if it's the rear and gearbox mount supplied, as the front should be the same.
