Won't work. You'd have to literally rewire the whole car. The NG900 has a different T5 engine than the 9-3's T7. The electronics just wouldn't work. I suppose you might be able to use the block and tranny, but you're talking an enormous amount of work for a car that's not THAT valuable. You would not like it even if it worked. Unless your 9-3 was a 99, you'd be giving up a lot of power and MPG doing that. Even the non-HO 9-3's were quite a bit better power wise than the OG was.
It can't be so broken you'd want to swap the engine out is it?
