Doesn't the whole MK3 subframe bolt right onto the MK2 body?

I'm working on the same project.
 Starting withe the 020  trany
until I have the engine running good,
 then focus on installing the 02J trany and shift box from a MK3 TDI..

I'm not sure whether it bolts in.

I had forgot that im running on temporary summer wheels...for 6 years.

Here's a test fiting of some Borbet R's i got a good deal on.

Hope you saved enough coin to be able to afford some tires on those rims.  Could be a bit of stiff ride otherwise.
