CorradoVR6-n.o.s 0 Posted February 17, 2009 Report Share Posted February 17, 2009 02a mate but an 02j would fit too but hard to find one and its six speed.!Any box from a VR6 model will fit mate bar the later 24v's but they can be fitted but its not a straight in and out job.

I know you can use O2j shift tower and cables / mec in 02a for a butter like gear change... all depends on how easy the parts are to get to if its worth doing i guess Link to post Share on other sites
CorradoVR6-n.o.s 0 Posted February 17, 2009 Report Share Posted February 17, 2009 yea the o2j bolts straight it but has no speedo drive as it takes it off the abs,so you would need to swap your original housing over. Link to post Share on other sites
