Hi everyone...

Are there any specific differences between for example, the basic shell of different calibra models?  For instance.  Will the panels and bumper etc of say a '92 16v 2.4L fit a '96 YE95 V6 2.5L and /or vice versa    and      would the gearbox of a '96 YE V6 2.5L 5spd fit the '92 16v 2.4l  model without modification etc? 

If the '96 model in this instance is not compatible with the '92 example above, which models is it compatible with?

Thanks... look forward to hearing from you.

The Calibra16v is a 2.0 I think there was a Vectra 2.4, maybe a Holden 2.4 was released in Aus ??  and it is sequential fuel injection

Bodywork wise all Calibra's are identical except the small changes made pre-post facelift, it all fits together though.

Chassis differences are onyl between the 4x4 model and front wheel drive models.

Engines are mostly easily interchangeable as are gearboxes etc. with only slight modification.
Audi S4 2.7 Twin Turbo Avant, RS4 Turbo's + Intake, 2.5'' Turbo's Back Exhaust, Fully Rebuilt Cylinder Heads, RS4 Fuel Pump + Injectors, Coilovers, RS6 Seats, 18'' B6 Alloys, RS4 360mm Fronts, RS4 321mm vented rears, RS4 Spoiler, much more!
