Curiosity got me to pondering the above questions....
Suppose non-Subaru motor for the Subaru transmission and non-Boxster/Audi engine for the Boxster transmission. What about axles and hooking up to the drive hubs? One easier or vastly less expensive than the other? EDIT 2/21/2016: Now with pictures comparing Boxster transmission to 901 transmission |

Boxster is virtually the same as the Passat and the Passat tranny can be had for $400.

Boxster is virtually the same as the Passat and the Passat tranny can be had for $400. Man,you are not kidding....a bunch on eBay for $400 and less...one for $375 shipped! Plus Boxster flanges are available in 100mm and 108mm depending on 5 or 6 speed respectively. That's bolt on for CV joints. |

Combine that with 100mm 944 turbo stub axles and VW bus 100mm CV's, with some machined axles its basically bolt in.. |
