I can get a 2007 engine from a wreck and want to know if i can swap it into my 2003 touring. What will this entail (will i have to change tranny anything other parts? I liek my car the way it is but I know the 07 engine is alot better than the 03 and i can get this motor cheap. and it has very low miles on it. Help me make this work lol.

Check out this guy. He is attemping the same idea.

 

wow good to know my idea was original haha thanks guys

 

f*** it im just going st lol

 

Yes! I beat you to it

 

lol, i figured i'd ask bc i can get it pretty cheap but thats too much of a pain in the ***

 

That you did! The servers here in Afghanistan aren't the fastest.

 

apparently the recommended thread is talking about a Rev-up rather than an HR. So Questions stand at:

What will be needed for this swap?
Will we need to get an 07+ tranny as well?
I'm sure we'll need an 07+ ECU, but can we keep our original BCU, and only swap engine harness?

How do you identify an HR engine over a Rev-up, if you don't know the original car it came in. (read Ebay bought)

thanks

HR engine are obvious Only VQ in the Z with 2 TB. And ull need a 07+ hood to fit the engine.

 

okay, That's what I thought, but I was wondering because I'd heard conflicting information. Now only if I had a 06 tranny to try out on the HR. I'm had some people say no way it would fit, that the higher block means a different tranny, others say yeah it'll fit, n that the only difference is the gear ratios. Anyone got picts?
