    Replacements, aftermarket and parts from other vehicles that fit

    I will try and fill this post with as much info as possible, I'm new to vr4's my experience is very minimal but I'll try my best, not quite sure how this should be laid out regards

    Parts that definitely fit with no modifications needed and

    Parts that fit with modifications? This section would seem pointless because almost anything will fit with modifications, so I think sticking with straight swap is the best route and maybe a section with DIY,able mods like coil over plug is relatively easy to do with little mechanical knowledge.

    BUSHES

    energy*suspension do a kit for the AWD*eclipse*1999 which fits the VR4.

    enerysuspensionparts.com in the USA are a distributer, if i remeber correctly it will cost about £120 for the kit, Unathane inserts for the front and rear suspension arms and shock top mounts and manual gear shift bushes.

    Link for kit is below

    BRAKES

    evo 4 -9 calipers fit straight on to facelift models along with the disks and pads,

    Pre face lift. . . . . ?

    Standard calipers with aftermarket good quality pads and disks make a huge improvement and maybe all you need and sometimes can work better as with bigger brake conversions extra rotating weight and the weight of the calipers can affect the characteristics of the car

    AYC PUMP
    Ayc pumps fit from evo 4 - 9, people have fitted SAYC but I'm not up to speed as to what is involved again if anyone can confirm I will edit and keep it straight to the point

    Does anyone have anything to add to this? Any links? Or known mods, replacements or suppliers?

    I came across this following a russian repair video...

    (also has saloon listed)
    Sills have same part no for all cars, saloon and estate, from 2.0 to VR4.

    Maybe those part number listings can lead to finding the panels for sale somewhere?

    Thank you for that I will add it to the list, I'm at a dilemma with mine at the min, I don't know whether to buy the one on Ebay which is very clean and break mine or stick with repairing mine but fear the rust will always come back?
