Depends on the parts obviously.

Engine and transmission though are compatible only on the Vigor in the US.

Japan had a few 5 cylinder cars but again, same engine and transmissions.

lol... luckly... 1st Generation TL Forum doesn't really get a lot of traffic... or else you would of already gotten for saying a blower motor... i was actually, Dreaming of course, of putting in a blower into a geo metro... Wonder how that would turn out...
Friends of Civic/racer guy: "So what kind of car beat you???"
Civic/Racer guy: "Dude drop the subject man, i don't wanna think abou it..."
Friends...: "c-mon, tell us? Was he faster then us??? Was it one of those foreign Ferrari's or Lambo's... The McLaren???"
Civic Racer guy: "no... it was a Geo Metro..."

Anyways... That kind of engine in a TL would probably make it loose its Luxuriouse stance on the road... given that you'd have to customize the hood... and then some of the interior and the ... firewall (spelling and part correction)??? also, a different tranny etc... man... if you do this to the TL you're going to have a hell of a time... lots of work... About aftermarket parts for the TL... nope... there are none... no wide body kit (TLxRaCeR comes to mind...lol...) very few aftermarket parts... such as gauges and such...

Have fun trying to find parts for our 2.5's...lol... I know the 3.2 are very lucky... mostly everything fits their engine...

blower motor blows air into the vents. It cost about 1100 to change it in my 3.2 since I needed a defroster at night i had to give in and buy a new one.

Blower motor can be one of two things.

An actual motor that blows air.

Or... a its a slang term for a supercharged car.

In that case, a Vigor component WOULD be compatible with the 2.5 TL.

Neither will fit.

The 2.5 TL is unique, so is the 3.2
