Re: can some help me
WOW first i need to complement you on how clean your engine bay is. its real clean.
as i beleve you can use your tranny, from what i understand all the F series trannys will fit.
if your just looking for a little bit more power without spending money i would just get the N/A 1.8, but if your looking for a drastic increse of power go for the BPT. and as i under stand the SOHC wiring harnes is the same or comapable with the BPT ECU. so it makes this swap alot easer than if you had a DOHC.
and you can find some helpful swap info in the engine swap section on the main home page

Re: can some help me
I would really suggest using the search function on this one too.
Swap wise a protege lx (91-94?) is what ya would be after for budget minded stuff. This has been discussed a ton so a search or two should yeild a lot
