ok you've prolly seen this question before but i havent found what im looking for.
now i have a 94 mx3 gs 1.8l that im about to swap out for the KLZE 2.5l and i dont want to waste the 1.8l because its still got life in it just need to replace some gaskets and some basic tuning which i can do after the swap.
i found a good body for the 1.8l but it comes with the 4cyl engine,will the 1.8l bolt properly into the engine bay of the base 4cyl modle?
i know ima have to swap the tranny and wiring harness is there anything else that im going to need to change?
any foreseeable problems that might occure?
thanks for the help ^_^
