semi auto vr's

[ashmk3 0]

i have been searching for a vr6 either for its running gear or to use as a complete car. then i came across a good rado vr6 but it said semi-auto 1-3 drive.

if anyone can shed some light on what they are and how good they are as i cant seem to find any info on them all i know is there rare as rocking horse poop. does it work like dsg or what :S

I'm only guessing but can see it being the American style, the stalk by the steering wheel, forward, neutral and reverse??... That's my guess anyway

i didnt know if it would be like dsg a normal automatic but then you can move the knob across and have a manual sequential,

ps stig do you have the gearbox and loom to the 2.9 engine you have advertised in the sig?

Yes its a 4 speed automatic you can change gear 1-3 4th is where you put it in drive alternatively you can drive it fully auto and just leave it in drive . 3rd gear is good for 120mph so expect economy to be worse than driving it as it was intended. lol

I thought roger would know

With regards to the 2.9, I have a box but no loom..

I'll forget that then. A less economical vr, there not the best on fuel with a normal gearbox. Agh I need all of the stuff as it's for a mk2 build.
