There never was an mx-3 4cyl with the 1.8l engine they are all 1.6l. the 1.8 in an mx-3 is the v6.

ok which crossmember could work for the original tranny that comes with the KLZE ? hmmmm maybe I can find someone to make one for me .........

EDIT: does it need to be very solid? is aluminium correct?

anyway thanks for all your comment guys!! When I start making it I will tell my experiences.... (btw, don't wait to see it this year cause I need to find a good job before

haha, sometimes I understand complicated things and I don't understand simple things... anyway

EDIT: ohhh and very slow minded also lol cause I just figured out that the V6 mx3 2.5L tranny is the same as the KLZE tranny.... well.....
