Re: HELP bought parts car

the t tops wont fit i know that for sure. you could do a dash conversion and a center console conversion, but i dont know if they are different between the v6 and v8 cars. if it has nice wheels you can use those with spacers. I dont know what gears the v6's came with, but a 4th gen rearend swap is a nice upgrade.

Re: HELP bought parts car

Brakes are a good upgrade but they are not a bolt in

The only bolt in swaps are the seats and the rear suspension

Dash door panels and console will fit but require modification

Headliner is wrong, hatch is wrong, t-tops are wrong

Re: HELP bought parts car

The gas tank and driveshaft will fit... only upgrade if it has a plastic tank and an aluminum driveshaft. which i doubt it does since it is a V6 but still wortha shot
