    People have modified them to fit in the past - I think you need late model control arms too? The offset is slightly different I think - I've done some research on this in the past but have since forgotten everything I learned.

    tl;dr version:

    1) you can not "bolt it in"
    2) you CAN modify things to fit, but you'll need to do some reading.

    Going from VR-VP would be the problem

    I think anything post-VP/VQ is considered "late IRS".

    I have a VP cradle if that is of any interest. It is located in Melbourne SE suburbs.
