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!

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.

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.
