What about sensors and the ECU. Is there any compatibility issues depending on what year the donor motor is from?

I didn't even think about the AWD being different. Thanks for bringing that up.

Good day I am replacing the engine in my '09 Vibe GT due to a spun rod bearing. I know the Toyota Matrix, Toyota Corolla, Toyota RAV4, and the Scion tC all came with the same engine but do all the cars have the same mounting points, electrical hookups, sensors, ect. Is there any other difference bet...

Greetings, I really like the spacing of trb's mustang wheels on the Gen 2 Vibe. I'm looking at getting a new set of rims for my 09 GT. How do I figure out what offset I would need if I wanted to run a different width wheel but have them stick out the exact same amount as the mustang rims?

I sometimes have an issue with snow/ice accumulation in the wheels off my 09 GT, I have a window ice scraper that's on a long stick that I use to knock the ice out.

How significant of an effect do you think the Megan Racing headers would have. Especially if I intend to have the ECU tunned?

I swapped out the broken-knobbed stereo with a bluetooth one. Right after that, we took the car from Albu...

Cool, I want to work in the automotive industry when I finish my degree.

Thanks for the advice, I'm trying to exercise my work connections to find a cheap set of rims for winter. I also considered getting these rims for summer and using the stock in the winter since they have some road rash and minor corrosion, but they still like so nice even with their minor flaws. P.S...

I have a facebook but I rarely check it. Thanks for the warm welcome everyone.
