    Default vn manual gearbox to fit vr auto motor?

    Can someone please tell me if you can put a vn manual gearbox into a vr that is currently an auto? I have been told an auto motor will only take an auto box.

    You're better off chasing a VR box. Do you know what series the VN box is? S1 or S2?

    Morton.
    the vn gearbox is the same as a vr.

    only difference will be the flywheel.

    series one has 6 bolts and series two has 8 bolts.


    if it were a vn series one. you would have to change either the crank/engine or get a crank adaptor.
