Timothy_Ellis 23 Posted March 23, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2017 Had azg 2.0 with bad main bearings. Chick drove it from Florida to North Carolina with a bad oil pump. So I swapped it with a 24v 2.8l vr with 6speed transmission and vr bigger brakes. Link to post Share on other sites

StylinVR6T 1 Posted March 24, 2017 Report Share Posted March 24, 2017 Nice swap man. Looks clean. Been wanting a 24v vr6 daily so i can keep the miles off my 12v (under 75k on the odometer currently) hows the gas mileage? I imagine its a bit better then i get with my 5 speed.
