hi there
the only thing that will change over is the battery!
remember you have a 4 pot, the 12 is a V6!
you should forget the engine side of it as i don't think anything else fits (but not sure).

Mick.
The brakes may differ,particularly front,the ECU ,presuming it's a 12 valve engine,is the EEC IV as against EEC V,the autobox is semi electronic only,the drive shafts are bigger and the diff has a higher ratio.A lot of things electrical and electronic,modules etc will be compatible though.

So maybe the 2.9 's not a good idea after all. Will maybe have to lie in wait , ready to pounce on a 2.3
