B6T Swap help
Posted: February 26th, 2010, 11:30 am
Hi,
I was wondering if anyone knew how to swap a b6t into a 95 rs mx-3? I had a 91 capri xr2 until a few days ago that got rear ended and pushed into another car. The capri only had 74,000 miles on it with all the paperwork from day one. I installed a front mount intercooler and a apexi avcr and 3 inch exhaust and fuel pump and greddy type s bov and a vj14/11 hybrid turbo the car dynoed at 180 hp at 15 psi. Insurance company is allowing me to keep the car.
I searched the forums and came up with the head from the bede which I have is interchangable and the that's about it. The motor is out of my mx3 at the moment because it it dropped a valve and ate a hole through a piston. I had just bought another one and bought a spec lightweight flywheel and pressure plate from a miata, a 323 manual steering rack, a unorthodox crank pulley with the power steering and ac delete option and alternator pulley, some 93 miata cams and fidonza adjustable pulleys, and a jacob ignition system and a walbro 255 fuel pump. Was wondering if I could use all the stuff I just bought on the b6t motor? Would I need to switch the wirinig harness and ecu and maf? Is the 95 transmission a bolt on to the b6t motor? Any help will be appreciated.
