    Default vr vs similarities

    hello Iwas wondering whether or not I can use bits out of a vs and use them in my vr. My VR's transmission is shagged as well as few other bits and pieces. and as I have access to a cheap vs was wondering if most bits are a strait forward swapover or if i will come across problems.Thankyou

    Transmission should be a straight swap. I've shoved a VT transmission in a VR and it worked fine. It then worked fine when we threw an Ecotec in the VR, so all the transmissions should be interchangable.

    Here's what can NOT be swapped over:

    1) any engine bits (a few can, but generally no. they're different engines)
    2) any wiring loom bits, they're very similar, but completely different

    but if you're after interior parts, panels, suspension, brakes... it's all backwards-compatible from VS > VR.
