I have no idea what we used, we just found one in the shop that was a good size and this cool mexican guy put the inlet and outlet in all the right places to make it fit perfectly with no cutting of the rad support. The fan is from a J30 and sits in front of the rad instead of behind it and that fits as well. The axles are actually a little too long because theyre for the slightly wider mx3 so I hear some knocking and feel some vibration but it is driveable. I have to get all the other stuff still.... complete exhaust, complete suspension, the correct ecu, maybe a supercharger in the long haul....we'll see. Swap was definitely worth it.
Special thanks to Mario and Yoss and everyone else who helped at the shop. Also to Georonimo for giving me a good deal on the stuff. Excellent guy to do business with.
