Yep it mounts up the same, however!

Will probably cost more overall, thanks to needing a new intake manifold, new exhuast manifold, new sump. Also need to make oil drain from head, the rear water outlet needs to be remade, and a few other pain in the arse problems that you dont get with an Altezza motor.

Even if you get a beams motor/box for a good price, it's one hell of a job to fit it into an 86, and questionable whether the amount of power you get is worth it. Definitely not worth the trouble for a gen 3 motor.
