1zz ----> 2zz

Post by SkateForLife86 »

Alrite, is a 2zz motor compatible with the 5-speed transmission that comes standard with base model vibes/xr matrix? If so, how much would a 2zz engine be running for? Where would they be available besides a junkyard? thanks

I'd keep your eyes out for a recked Vibe GT. Because they tempt the driver to rev it up for pleasure, I'm suspecting they will be more likely to get into accidents than the base Vibe.KSNeptune

Problem is, though, it might be hard to find one without major engine damage...
YES!I still visit GenVibe periodically. I have not forgotten about my "original" family over here!
