Can vn parts go into a vr?(motor, trans, suspension)

[DAVIDC]

Hey, I've got a VN commodore as a First car as i am only 16, it has a 3inch exhaust with Extractors, Lowered 2inches with King Springs, limited slip diff and the motor is a Reco and goes very fast together with the HSV ECU put in the car. This is all good and well but i just bought a VR with either a shot Trans or Engine. Its completely stock. So my question is can i put all the exhaust, springs, diff on the car and change the motor and trans from the VN to the VR??

My dad says No because the VN's are slightly different and the motor and **** wouldnt fit, but i thought i would get a second opinion coz i see alot of parts on the internet labeled "VN VP VR VS"

Anyhelp would be greatly appreciated because i have to get rid of one of the cars asap..

Ok, been here before but the opposite way round. I put a vr motor in a vn using the original vn gearbox and vn computer. To go from vn to vr the wiring harness will vary slightly and the plug for the auto box is different from vn-vr. So provided you swap all wiring from the vn to the vr you shouldn't have a problem. as for diff etc depends on the setup under the vr is it irs?
