    3sgte swapped mk3

    Hi guys, quick question is there a reason nobody swaps 3sgtes into the mk3 mr2? I've seen a couple of pics and videos but there really isn't many build threads and feedback on completed swaps.

    They're pretty hard to do, well out of the remit of the guy at home, although I do know of one home built car.

    We're currently installing a gen4 into a roadster.

    Really? I thought it would be on par with mk1.5 , what are the main difficulties in this swap?

    Mk3s don't have swap friendly engine bays, plus combining Obd1 tech with obd2/canbus is a problem.
