Passat 2.0 16v

Thinking of buying one as a donor for a new project. I want a 9A engine, wide track wishbones, etc. What year should I be looking for? What gearbox did they put in them?

 

1990 onwords they didn't make that many with the 9A...

Has a 02A cable change box

 

Cheers
Has anyone followed a similar route with this? I understand whats involved with the engine & gearbox change. Anyone experience with the wider wishbones/driveshafts etc?

 

see/pm Andy947, im certain his stuff was off passat.

 

Does any one know if the did a 1.8 16v passat circa 1992? A guy near me is selling one and insists its a 1.8.

 

Yeah they did do a 1800 Passat GT

 

passat gt has a good gearbox, 02a with 2y type ratios

 

Would the engine be a kr in an 1800?

 

The early GT passat was an 8V then they moved to KR 1.8 16v then post 1990 9A 2.0 16v, get the boy to check the V5 it will tell you the engine code there....

 

Cheers will give him another call.
