What about these killer vtech builds? Putting the exhaust rocker on the intake to remove the vtech and using a2 cams. They seam to get 200hp out of a a3 pretty easy. Though there are a few that have grenaded by the sounds of it.Quote:

There are lots of final drive options available too for the MX5 which are shared with the s2000. Go for it!

Yeah the 6 speeds are pretty similar between the mx5, silvia and rx8. The OP would have a 5 speed in the na though I think.
You have to get a rhd sub frame from v8 roadster and fab up engine mounts yourself as the subframes magic will be selling are lhd specfic.
The difference is the steering rack mounts are located different laterally between lhd and rhd.
Using an s2k manifold will be much cheaper than itbs.
You'll need a custom exhaust made to clear the steering rack.
I did a lot of research into this when the k20a thread first popped up. It was looking close to 15k for the conversion with myself doing the labour but paying for the required fabrication.
good luck with it man!
There is an nb mx5 being done by byp at the moment as far as I know.
F20c not even considered?
V8 isn't an option, wants to stick to under 2l class guys
here ya go Madjak, K24 allready on the go in Sydney, custom Subframe and motor already in ! B-)
