i have just fitted a gti subframe and cannot sellect 2 4 or reverse as the gear selector rod fouls the exhaust it it going to be better to cut the flange off the exhaust and sleeve /clamp/ weldOr relocate the geat selector to the other sidef the exhaust, my mate did this and it wokred with a smaller linkage? any ideas

hae you relocated the L shaped quadrant's bracket to the tu+ma position ?

As WP says, you need to cut the linkage mount off and weld it in the same place as it would be on the Tu subframe to clear the exhaust.

Or you can buy an GTi subframe with TU mount already welded on from me. PM me if your interested.

ok so the L shaped thing needs to go on the other side of the exhaust so it can clear when selecting gears? also how much?

thanks scotr

That's correct yes, I think there are some pictures of it on swordfish's xt build.
