again ...is this correct , yur gunna make a VR-4 a non VR-4? is the othe rcar have front end damage or the body in worse shape or engine bad? is making teh VR-4 a non VR-4 the onlee option , . Well is yu have time to change the rear crossmember and suspension cradle complete yeah. Does the SL have rear steering or non power assister rear steering?or have it at all? Is there rear drive train damage and suspension on teh VR-4 or body damage as well or just one and not the other?

suspension parts yes, liek i stated he would have to use the complete rear subframe and suspension cradle. Its not easilly retrofitable , but complete use of the suspension cradle and sub frame is a direct frame mount up.

Uhh no.

The non turbo and the turbo cars are two different chassis. I know this because
1: different chassis codes.
2: I was just under a '92 SL
3: I was just under a '95 VR4.

They are different the NA does not have the mounting spots the TT cars do. The springs are different. The entire rear end is different. Body panels will work even the active areo (that will be a pain to wire though)

If you would like me to actually post up photos and or screenshots of the tech manual I would love to. I could also link you to about 100 other threads where this is discussed in full detail.

But I will say it one last time. You can not use SL suspension parts on your VR4.

OP could you actually ask question, because that would be great.
