i bought another mx3. Have a couple questions..please

Post by April »

I just bought a 93 SOHC 4 cyl. MX3. It has a header on it. Now, I'm just wondering I have a 4cyl DOHC, which is my good car. Would the header on the SOHC work with the DOHC?? I'm not sure, and no one around me knows either.
also, they are both 5spd, how do I tell if the tranny out of the SOHC would work on the DOHC?

I'm trying to get as much parts off it that will work on my car.
So, If anyone near North Bay,Ontario is looking for any parts for a 93 4 cyl SOHC mx3...I will be scrapping the car after I strip it.

anyway, hope someone can help me! Thanks!

The headers are different. I think they just won't physically line up with the heads. I don't believe commercial headers exist for the B6 DOHC. Get a BP engine.

As far as I know, all the RS model years used the F-series tranny, so I think you'd be okay there.
