BPT engine swap other than a mx-3
I just recently crashed my beloved bpt swaped modified mx-3.  I'm trying to replace it with another mx-3 but I can't find any good mx-3 that are in a good condition for me to swap the engine out.  The engine survived the crash at least 90 percent of it.  So since i cant find any good condition mx-3 I would like to swap it to another mazda.  I know mazda 3 and the protege are in the same family but my question is can I swap a bpt engine into one of them or another car with ease?  I would appreciate for any feed back anyone has be it good or bad.  Thanks

Mazda protege (pre 1998)

Those are the only decent options.

Re: BPT engine swap other than a mx-3
Ford Festiva
Merkur XR4Ti (already turbo)
Mazda BF 323 (pre 1990)
Mercury Tracer
Mazda Miata
Kia Sephia
Ford Aspire
Just a few odd balls that Ive seen with BP's swapped in. The Tracer LTS came with a BP. Escort GT also had a BP. The Miata is obviously RWD. The BF I think came with a 1.6t in the GTX (along with 4x4).

Took the bp+t out of the mx and swapped it into a 95 escort wagon.

Re: BPT engine swap other than a mx-3
Thanks alot and I'll check out the buy section in this forum.  Also all the cars will have to OBD1 for me to swap out the engine right, cause I heard if I try to swap in the engine into a OBD2 car it wont pass emmission.  Does anyone know idf thats true?
