#1 Buy another V6 MX3
#2 swap the entire engine bay from V6 into I4, including all hardware and harnesses
-All A/C stuff - all P/S stuff - All cruise stuff - all electrical stuff, harnesses, fuse boxes, abso-freakin'loutly everything - All brake stuff, master, distro block, lines, clutch line - All cooling stuff, rad, resevoir, lines - Lower crossmember - May as well swap in GS suspension as well, for safety, so all subframes.
#3 insert KLZE
have fun.

You don't absolutely need to swap the brake booster/master cylinder and proportioning valve though, but everything else Ryan said is true.
Good luck and enjoy cheaper insurance.

For a young driver like me it made a pretty decent difference.

Yeah you coudl just swap it all over, but it must be EVERYTHING and you may as well figure out how the harness changes on ZE. You've got lots more reasearch to do.
