anything will fit with work and money, but Im guess the mounting points arent the same. prolly a lot of custom work.<p>[ February 10, 2003: Message edited by: Custommx3 ]</p>

Oh, and the BPT is a 1.8L.

customx3:<p>i thank u for the info your given me,
know when u say custom, how much custom?
i'm sure the engine can fit in, but i have
to get custom mounts made? anything else you could think of that would need customing?
would i be wrong if i got an wrecked 90 probe gt turbo and just changed all parts over into my mx3? like ecu,wireing,tranny,axles. would i be killing ya if i asked you to send an list of the parts needed on a motor swap (the basics), also what cars here in the U.S. is a commen swap for the mx3.

94 rs 1.6l dohc w/160k
but for some odd reason my car won't fire up,i was drive'n one day and it just died,and i can't find the problem. so i seen an
2.2l (f2) turbo in the paper for cheap.
$250 w/ 60k miles. it's an US engine, not imported jspec. plmk i could use all the help i can get.

i think your best swap would be the b6t..goto www.corksport.com<p>jason

[westwingsi]

hey guys,
well what's an b6t? what does it come out of?
i already paid half for the 2.2l turbo (f2),
what's a good motor that's TURBO we could easly find in the U.S., that would be an (kinda easy)
swap? plmk

Well homes i guess your going to be a pionner..Do the swap and tell us how it goes.

Its gonna cost more than a b6t swap...

[westwingsi]

come factory b6t or bpt? plmk
