T_vr6 6 Posted February 21, 2014 Report Share Posted February 21, 2014 Hi guys im looking to do a engine swap into my vr due to my engine failing.I will be swapping an engine from a 1996 n reg vr6 into my 1996 highline would it be a straight swap or would I have problems because it is a highline? Did they make obd2's in 1996? Any help would be very much appreciated cheers Link to post Share on other sites
Therusterman 59 Posted February 21, 2014 Report Share Posted February 21, 2014 Yup, iirc obd II was from mid '95 T_vr6 1 Link to post Share on other sites
T_vr6 6 Posted February 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2014 So I wont have any problems if the new engine is from a non highline? cheers Link to post Share on other sites
ASHLEYG 4 Posted February 21, 2014 Report Share Posted February 21, 2014 None at all. Straight swap. No difference in the engine in a highline. Got a 55000 mile engine and lots of other bits including charger if you're interested? See my ad in the cars for sale section Link to post Share on other sites
Lukey. 381 Posted February 21, 2014 Report Share Posted February 21, 2014 High line is just like luxury spec trim, the engine isn't any different. T_vr6 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Therusterman 59 Posted February 21, 2014 Report Share Posted February 21, 2014 (edited) Lukey beat me to it, as long as the replacement is obd 2 it will drop straight in. Have you thought about doing some preventative maintenance whilst the engines out? Edited February 21, 2014 by Therusterman T_vr6 1 Link to post Share on other sites
T_vr6 6 Posted February 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2014 Cheers fellas very much appreciated I was pretty sure that it drops straight in hopefully should be ready by UD Link to post Share on other sites
