Hi,
You need the S2 6 speed transmission mounts.  On the driver's side, you need 
a shim between the transmission subframe and the transmission mount.  Or you 
pick up a B4 trasmission mount, this is the same subframe used on the European 
S2.

I would show you a picture, but alas the car is on the deck and I don't have 
a lift.  Next week I could take pictures as I am doing the brakes.

What are they going to do to the front axles to make them work?  The six 
speed shafts are a different length than the normal coupe shafts.
