   Does the gearbox from a 306 gti6 fit onto a saxo vts? would be great to have 6 speeds, if not do any 6 speed gear box fit?

   there is no MA 6speed gearbox, unless you buy a sadev or equivelent and have the bellhousing purchased to fit.
   
   the 6 speed box from gti-6 uses different bell housing, shafts etc....
   
   Why else do you think people who have spend thousands on engines dont fit 6speed boxes?

    there is.... you buy it from sadev or quaife. it will cost you 40x the amount of said gti-6 box.
    
    
    as stated, there is no point and its too much hassle. just get a 5 speed with a nice final drive.

    having owned a gti-6 6 speed 205 I will hold my hands up and admit it was a bit shit as mods go. Nothing overly wrong, but it was heavy, sucked on right turns and generally seemed pointless when I got the same thrill of acceleration from a modified 5 speed.
    It will be crap in a saxo. It may be different and cool but it will still be crap.
