How to 07k swap your mk2 golf

Obviously, this video is riddled with sarcasm, but if you look beyond that, I do want to try and help people who genuinely want to 07k swap their mk2. Now, there will be countless differences between my car and yours. The parts you choose is also completely up to you.
With that being said, I made a brief doc on the parts I used and the general process. It’s honestly very straightforward, if I can do it, you can do it. If you have questions, feel free to dm me on Instagram and I will try my best to help!

Nice so close to 1k subs. I hope you hit that soon.

[@dubCanuck1]

Whaaaaaat? You mean you haven't documented every single step to train others???? Nice job btw... And crocs.

[@brett.mk2]

Lmao I guess I should’ve been training people… 🤦🏻‍♂️ thanks man, and thanks for the crocs compliment that’s huge

[@joelspalmer]

Amazing video, thank you sm man. Excited to continue following your journey with this car. Driving an 07K mk6 Jetta right now, but I have big dreams of dropping it in a mk2 when I can, one day. Will definitely be looking to these videos for reference

[@brett.mk2]

That’ll be sick! Thanks man! The google doc will continued to be updated so hopefully I can put enough info out there to be helpful

[@emsea7279]

I think it’s funny that tons of people hate on the 5cyl mk5 an and there’s not much support for them…(compared to a gti or a vr6, etc) But there’s tons of people that jump on it and rant and rave about 07k swaps or the Daza swaps(basically an Audi turbo 07k)..

[@brett.mk2]

I think with the 07k in the mk5, it’s underpowered for the chassis. But in a mk2 or lighter chassis, it makes for a great alternative to other swap options. It’s still a great engine if you’re not concerned about power

video is pretty much worthless, you are trying to make a funny video like scotty kilmer does for people who don't know much about working on cars. What CV shafts go with that transmission? What radiator did you use, what radiator hoses, you said nothing about power steering system, you said nothing on how to make instrument cluster work with swap, what down pipe to use? then ECU has to be programmed for the swap? there is way more to this. You say you want E30 to do some swap, well I am into E30 swap, what if I told you dude just get S52 with E34 oil pan and Getrag 260, you don't know what I am talking about right?

[@brett.mk2]

I mean this in the most respectful way possible, but did you want me to hold your hand during the swap? Axles come with the swap kit, mk3 vr6 rad, upper and lower hoses from eurowise, rest you can use stock mk2, car is manual rack, instrument cluster doesn’t work right now, make your own downpipe.
