My gear box is very crunchy,, its V broken. Before i ring my local car dismantlers and get myself ripped off, were VR6 gear boxes made for a higher rating than standard MK3 gear boxes or were they all the same. If i can get away with asking for a standard MK3 box then im likely to not have a couple of pounds added on because its for a VR. Is there some where i can look up this sort of info. All help greatly appreciated, even though its not a GTi but i do own a nice black one as well. Thanks Ben
Hi there, is your car a VR6? The gearbox in the VR6 has a different Bell Housing, so any of the four cylinder gearboxes will not fit.
nothing in a VR box that makes it any stronger either, the internals are used sometimes for the gearing though.
Thanks Guys, all i can do is a homer, never thought about the bell housing, thanks for the info, much appreciated Ben
