RE: AE86 w/MX-5 swap, maybe??
There is little or nothing to be gained from an N/A MX5 engine (although they can be built to be fast), so why bother swapping one in when there are more powerful or easy (4age into ke70) alternatives I guess.

From a reliability standpoint I would consider it an upgrade. The gearboxes are great and the engines last well if you stay away from the short nose crank ones.

FABRICA MI DIEM, PVNC!
