pyro3911 0 Posted October 6, 2008 I have a 93 vr6 which is coming off the road in winter to convert to turbo. :D While it is out I am going to fit a 4wd gearbox to upgrade to 4wd once the turbo has been setup and tested on the road. :D My question is does anybody know if the mkv manual r32 gearbox will fit the vr6 engine. I am assuming that it still uses the 02m box. :confused4: ian Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CorradoVR6-Turbo 0 Posted October 6, 2008 it will bolt on to the engine but will need work on the mounts. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pyro3911 0 Posted October 6, 2008 Thanks James, I have researched the work required to do the conversion. Just wasn't sure if the mkv had the 02m box. I have got my eye on one, just need to get it at the right price. ian Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CorradoVR6-Turbo 0 Posted October 6, 2008 dont know the codes mate,but the VR/R32 4motion ect are the same block design so will fit on. sounds like a right good project mate! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pyro3911 0 Posted October 6, 2008 Yeah I hope so, Doing the research and buying parts I don't want the car off the road for too long. I am going to america in may and want to be well into the rebuild by then, as thats when I am getting a lot of the parts together and hopefully avoid the import and the dreaded. I will get a build thread when i make a start in earnest. Ian Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pyro3911 0 Posted October 6, 2008 At this stage as cheap as possible, I am in no rush to get one as I have until next may to source one. I don't really want to pay more than £300 for working gearbox and transfer box. But I have not seen many non dsg boxs for sale and don't want to get robbed by a breakers. ian Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CorradoVR6-Turbo 0 Posted October 6, 2008 i thought there would be more non dsg boxes around,4 motion golfs,audi's tt etc.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pyro3911 0 Posted October 6, 2008 They seemed to get snapped up, but dsg boxs don't from what I can gather. I will find one that is suitable and cheap, so the audi tt will fit and i assume the s3 will fit as well. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CorradoVR6-Turbo 0 Posted October 6, 2008 yip as long as its the VR type motor mate Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pyro3911 0 Posted October 6, 2008 i have had a look on vagcat and the 02m gearbox is listed on the TT, will the gearbox off the 1.8T fit as well as they seem to be more available. I didn't realise that the audi box were compatable. Can anyone confirm which cars have a 4wd box that will fit the Vr6 ian Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CorradoVR6-Turbo 0 Posted October 6, 2008 No mate,non of the four cyl will fit as the hang back towards the bulkhead and the VR motor hangs forward so the bell housing will not bolt on to your motor. You can use any of the 2.8,3.2 VAG gearboxes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
