As the title touches on. Rumor has it the majority of the bulkhead, front and rear suspension are the same. Anyone thrown Matryx plastics on their Axys?

There aren't individual pieces that are compatible between the two, so you'd have to swap everything. And then you'd run into problems at the intake, the foot loops, and the gas tank. There's probably more problem spots, but those would be enough to dissuade me.

I’m building from scratch so those small things would not bother me. By all appearances: the bulkhead halves are the same. The middle connectors are similar but have subtle differences due to engine mount changes. Since I’m building from scratch. I was just hoping to use the newer / narrower plastics for the improved ergonomics. I’ll keep researching the concept. Thanks
