Does anyone have any advise to change an AT in a 93
1.6 ? I'm trying to change it out without pulling the motor, friend says its no problem but it sure looks close!
4 cyl AT

Re: 4 cyl AT
Mods please BAN that tool.
Regarding the topic....
You're going to need a 5 speed manual transmission swap.
If you want more power, you're going to need a 1.8L DOHC BP.
For the transmission swap:
Transmission
wiring for pedal assembly
pedal assembly
shift linkage and shifter
new clutch
For the engine swap:
1.8L BP engine
Thats about it. New belts, fluids, and the other regular tune up stuff.
Check the worklogs, A few guys are doing detailed writeups on 5speed swaps.

Re: 4 cyl AT
Note:
When changing the transmission in an Mx3 break the axle nuts on both sides first.
The most annoying thing was having to drop the valve body to disconnect the cable.
I had to make a custom tool for unlacing it.
As for more power.
I love my lil MX3 30 mpg with the AC ON.
The auto is just fine for my rural area.
