I haven't seen it done yet, although I've seen an LS1 swap, Ford 302, Nissan motors, Rotary's, etc. Wondering if anyone has done this with a 4G63 yet. Saw a Miata on Pinks the other night that had a swap done that was just totally badass to me.
Figure the only obstacles is finding a manual tranny that'll work, flywheel and clutch setup, driveshaft, and then getting things like the gauges to work if a wiring harness from a dsm is used. I have a 91 Eclipse fwd that I'm tired of cause of traction issues so all I'd really need is a Miata shell, and then whatever it takes to convert everything. Any ideas or good leads into the right direction? Thanks.
