Yes 07's with the HR motor have 80% new internals. Most are saying they are internals with forced induction in mind (*ahem GT-R*)

Yes the HR has a better engine. And beefier rods, which were the weakpoint on the previous engines. I think it was sharif that posted pics comparing the two. The rods are beefier, but not that beefier, not GT-R standards i would think. Unless they plan on running that engine on the edge a bit.
