Hey.

Just wondering what parts from the V6 2nd Gen will fit the 4 Cylinder.

Of most importance is the suspension and exhaust - are they interchangeable ?

suspension is. as long as isnt wagon to sedan or vice versa? also 3rd gen fronts will go in too.
exhaust i think from memory no. someone else will need to confirm.

The wheels will fit, as long as you go V6 -> 4, not the other way round.
Brakes - twin pot front calipers and rotors can be moved from the V6 to the 4 as well.
Steering rack.
Front and rear hubs.
Exhaust - cat back - should fit, as long as the pipe is the same diameter and the mounting points are the same. In other words, you will have to do a trial fit. lol

Only other area of concern is air filter as i have a K+N Panel Filter for a V6 and wanting to know if that will fit a 4 Cylinder ?

The Exhaust is 2.5 inch from the V6 and i am wanting to put that on the 4 Cylinder ?

Thank you.

Now to find a donor car.

Seems the 4 cylinder is easier to find in manual then the V6.

Sure is....although I've hit it lucky with finding manual gearboxes at pick a part in recent months, paid under $50 for a V6 manual gearbox with only 140,000K's on it :D
*will be getting you those pictures ASAP*
