you can NOT fit a VL 5 speed onto a red 308. the VL 5 speed is a RB30 nissan gearbox. I doubt it would be possible. Also the VL 5 speed boxes are CRAP!!!! unless you find a turbo box. they are OK. but not perfect.
get a supra or celica box and get |

I think that he wants to convert the vehicle to an RB30 and five speed. I could be completely wrong though and he does want to do the unfeasable.

Injected 5litre is much better and would probably get roughly the same economy. Plus much more reliable.
