Default Is your friends car a lease?

Keep in mind, this plan might be considered theft. He doesn't "own" the car in this case.

No one here has done it to my knowledge. It's a LOT of work (twice). You ARE a quattro, right?

Default NO its not a lease. What is the risk???

I just need to know. You would think it would line up well. Isn't it the Same Tranny used in the Turbo S bug.

Don't you think that's going to kill the value of the 225?

Default Same transmission case... it'll fit. It's a lot of work. Legal implications if a lease. But...

seems like a fun idea. If he OWNS it and is trading it in to a dealer, why not? Buyer beware.... unless they ask him "hey is this a 5 or 6 speed," which they won't, who cares. Car dealerships have been screwing people over for years. This is mild in comparison to some of the stuff they pull. Like my TT that I bought with the balance of the factory warranty. Yeah, literally two day's worth. Bastages.

Default O2J,O2M,O2A are 5spd boxes that suck!

the MQ350 is in the:
TT Quattro
24v VR6 cars
1.8t VWs with 6spd(turbo S, 337, etc)

it's stronger, smoother, notchier, etc!!!!

no reason at all to use the old school 5spd
