    nope.
    vr is eletronically controlled by the ecu. and a vn gearbox is controlled by a kickdown cable attached to the throttle body.


    you could make it work but that means you need alot more parts from the vn. eg wiring computer. and kickdown cable/bracket.

    but it will fit onto the engine without a hassle

    I've already got the vn gearbox, got given to me but don't have the rest!! Sounds like a bit of stuffing around, might just get a new box! Thanks.
