Nah he doesn't but its not going to be a simple conversion any way as there aren't any rwd gearboxs that bolt straight up to a vr6 are there?

That gearbox pattern is used on a hell of a lot of VAG group cars. Surely there is at least one rwd gear box!?!?

Theres an adapter to mate it to a toyota. Personally I love the VR engine but dont think its best suited to what I use the anus for. Would love to see someone else do it though!

Got it wrong. :oops: Covers every engine but the VR http://acmeadapters.com/store_engine.php

Came up after searching vr6 adapter plate so I got excited

There obviously is a way though. Imagine that VR running on carbs!
