I can't weld nor have one lol. A grinder?

Haha I don't have the tools to do it, or know what I'm doing

Well it looks like the engine swap is going to cost me more than I thought and a lot of changes to be made so recently I've been thinking of buying a MX5 and selling the Mirca...

Sadly to far for me to travel really. Cheers though

Where did you find this?

Haha I think I will leave out the AWD and stick to the FWD

I would love to do this myself but sadly I dont know how to weld so I'd need someone else to fab everything up for me, which will cost. 4WD would be awesome but I don't know how much of a difference in price that would be to do.

Ok well I'm defo more into getting this engine now, would the roll cage be something you can help me out with? or I can ask a couple of places near me and see what the cost is like.

Yeah I think they are pretty good. Will have to see what I end up doing... at this moment its anyones guess :confused:

Yeah I've thought about a couple before, its just a matter of what I can find for the right price.

Ok so the coilovers aren't a waste then, just will need the springs re-rated with a heavier engine? I will have to see what kind of labor is involved and may do the MR2 engine provided no one buys it by the time I'm ready. If the MR2 comes with the gearbox and I keep the car FWD would it require...

I know the MR2 was just a thought for yourself, just when I saw the price of one it made me think this is cheap compared to the others I've researched. (haven't looked everywhere) I just liked the idea of doing something different but I guess with my lack of knowledge maybe I should just stick...

This may sound stupid but because I don't really know what I'm doing I've created a list of things to consider for an engine swap, unsure if I have everything. After Andy suggested his next project with the MR2 engine, I did a quick search and found one that I cannot beat in price compared to...

Cheers guys, will look into them

What insurance company do you go with for an engine swap. I've been told by my current insurer, I wont be insured with an engine swap.
