My friend is considering buying a 91 miata its a great deal the only problem is that its a automatic. What all is involved in the swap, I did a search and came up with no full list who can do it?

 

Not what you are looking for in an answer but my 2 cents:

The vehicle would have to be really cheap (sub $1000 and in decent shape) or I would just look for a stick car...there are plenty of them.

Unless you had a donor vehicle at hand, it might turn into a long term project digging out small parts from different people.

Not worth the trouble.

Andy,
I'd suggest searching on miata.net. I have read a few threads over there about this topic and I'd guess that there is more info over there than here. I'd agree with MrTonyG that it may turn into a huge hassle, but if you want to do it, then go for it.

A standalone megasquirt would make it a ton easier since you wouldn't have to swap a bunch of electrical stuff.

 

thanks alot of people feel that way but I have a trans, slave cyl, drive shaft, and a bunch of other stuff sitting around so I was going for like a list of what I need.

 

In addition to what you have you need clutch, pressure plate, flywheel, clutch pedal assy. miata.net garage has a writeup on it.

 

have fun mounting the pedal box. You should just buy a tilton floor mount box...lol.

i found it thankx

 

I may have some parts for you as well, I just parted a 96...make a list of everything you need and PM me, I'll box it all up and you can have it for cheap, I was gonna throw most of it away.

 

hi I'm hans the friend of andy's that got the auto miata. I have everthing but the pedal ***. And the master cylinder. I was wounding what all you had and if you had the pedal of if anybody knows any other cars that use the same parts. Where we live anything miata is really hard to find. Any info would be great thank you
