5th gen vi

Just wondering if the early 5th gen vi can fit on our 4th gen. I'm thinking its a pretty good fit since both cars have the same engine.

The engines in the 2000-2001 is a 3.2 and the 2K2 and 2K3 have the 3.5. The intake manifold from those cars will not work in the 4th gen. Your only choice is to get the MEVI.

The 5th gen VI won't work easily for a number of reasons... one being that it won't fit under your hood. So unless you want to have a car with no hood, forget it. BTW the 4th gen VI will cost about 1/2 as much as fitting a 5th gen VI on your car.
