No not really. Many have tried but there are many problems in the way. One TVR often changed the specs. The donor manufacturer's often changed the specs so that the parts fit the original car but not the TVR application. TVR changed/upgraded parts left right and centre and often the advice that is handed down is only applicable for that car and are not correct for the others that were made. In some cases, it is not accurate at all!

To be honest, the best advice is to assume nothing, check TVR anyway as they are often cheaper and easier to use in the first place and make sure that any replacement part is EXACTLY the same as the original.
