The engine just doesn't get any hype in the states because it was never imported... though very popular/common in NZ and Japan.
Now I know the 4g is a rare case cause there is so much support for that damn motor it isn't funny. It doesn't help that mitsu been running the 4g in damn near half there 4cyl and the 2.4L Sohc head can be swapped for the DOHC with intake and exhaust and have a 2.4L turbo motor and can be swapped into a 2.0L turbo car for about 500 bucks(doing the work yourself). I agree with Rob that the FE3 seem like one hella motor so unless I get funding for a 4g swap when I blow the b6 up I be looking at the FE swap instead. |
I found a guy on the Vortex who is swapping a turbo Vr6 into his Miata while using an RX7 trans. One things for sure....thats gonna be the best sounding Miata ever.

I've always thought it would be cool to have a euro s52 out of an M3 in a miata. But that vr6 idea is the shit, I love how those roar.

I've got info and drawings on my photobucket site free for the taking.
The vr6 w/turbo seems like a good swap given it's narrow, probably no longer than the fe3 - as long as it's not too tall. |
