Hi there I was wanting to put a T5 out of a vn v6 into a vr series 2 auto v6 sedan and was asking for advice to see if it can be done , The local fellas tell me that the crank sharfts are diffrent is this true? any help would all taken on board. I do have all wiring computer and stuff to do the convertion but would like to know if anybody has done it before I pull the car apart and find it can not be done.

It can be done the box is the same its the flywheel that is different as what he says is correct im pretty sure the vr has 8 bolt crank the vn has a 6 bolt crank so ya need the 8 bolt flywheel and thats ya conversion all good to go.

Series 1 had the 6 bolt Series 2 8 I believe. So if it's out of a Series 2 VN it will bolt up. I think.
