Vs 5 spd

[madsav]

Hi guys will a vs v6 5spd fit into my series 2 vn v6?if anything needs to be change could u list it please thank you

[some_guy]

If its a borg warner t5 yes
If its a getrag? then no.

[madsav]

The diffrence between the t5 and getrag is where the Reverse gear is located isnt it?
T5 off memory is right and down and getrag left and up ?

[some_guy]

No thats not the difference. Your thinking T56.

T5 5 speed = cable clutch
Getrag 5 speed = hydraulic clutch
T56 6 speed = hydraulic clutch with reverse to the left and up.

Now im with ya, i would also have to find a vn manual computer too since the vn is an auto atm

[some_guy]

You can get your memcal retuned to use as a manual, talk to doctor bob and delcowizard about it.
You can buy a kit for vr's on ebay, trx100 ebay shop lnk check with him if there is one available for a vn.

VN manual/auto run the same computer and will both run the on the same tune. You also can fit a getrag box but it requires a little more, you would need a hydrolic pedal box, possible different bellhousing? Im not sure but it can be done if you really want to but in IMO T5 is a better box anyway.

The complete Vn-Vr Manual Conversion Guide.

Lots of info in that thread. What parts have you got? Or is the box all you have?

[GTP 85]

Yea around these parts people opt for the T5 over the getrag. Some wreckers i know wont even do a getrag conversion cause of the issues they have.

Why not do an ecotec conversion at the same time?

as for the auto and manual computers all thats is manly difrent is the idel speeds are dif an othe good option u can do is use a v8 computer with v6 memcal it makes the rev a lot better try it and u will see

Can pick up a whole vs commodore with around 230,000k`s wont have any need for anything but the whole manual conversion the guy wants $500 ,only because it has front end damage
