Hi there, has anyone thought about a 6A12 MIVEC swap for our cars? I think that engine has the potential to run very well and it's compact enough to fit in a mirage, what about fitting it in our cars? Here in Puerto Rico someone put one of these in a Mitsu Mirage and seems to fit great with space to spare (well, a little of it) and I think our cars have a little more space than a Mirage. And, that engine stock has almost 200 HP@ 7500 RPM and 147 ft·lb of torque to the flywheel and those are great numbers to start. Think about it and tell me what you think about it and tell me if that has already been done by someone. I hope this will be of your interest.

Here's a link of the video of the Mirage with that engine on it:

you know what
it shouldn't be a too hard to do swap to fit the drivetrain
the fto was another variation of the basic 2gnt chassis

electronic, if you have a whole harness and computer , will be the hardest part I think

get a complete front clip and have fun
