What information are you looking for? I'm sure you will find plenty of interest here, to include myself!! Any aftermarket and performance parts we can get made for these automobiles would be great as we have such a limited variety at the moment. Thanks and keep us informed!

Well, i'm very interested wether the Vibe and the Matrix differs from one eachother on the frame, engine bay, transmission location, etc... Do these 2 cars have the exact same bone structure?We're prototyping turbo kit on a Vibe right now. We've had experience on the 1ZZFE engine and 2ZZGE engine before, since we already turbo'd them both on the Celica. So, can anyone verify me on the match between the matrix and the Vibe? Will we be forced to do another prototyping to fit the Matrix?Thanks in advance.Bing

What kind of Vibe are you working on, base or GT? As far as structure, the Vibe and Matrix are identical. The only differences that I know of are cosmetic. Things like the headlamps are different, so if you are running any piping by the headlamp, there may be clearance issues. The base Vibe's A/C condensor has the dryer mounted to the front of it. The Matrix does not, which will cause problems mounting an I/C if it is too thick. But since you are working on a Vibe, fitting for the Matrix in this area shouldn't be a problem. My guess is that the kit will bolt right up to a Matrix with only minor adjustments. Hope this info helps.
Great info Devlop!!! Thanks alot.We're working on the base Vibe(1ZZFE). We're very lucky to get our hands on an U.S. car only. We can't get these cars in Europe.Anyways, keep an eye out on the forced induction forum where I will give updates on the kit if you're interested We already completed the test piping.Bing
