    Default Is there much of a demand for 6 speed swap?

    I'm sure someone has touched on this at some point but I did a little browsing and didn't find anything.

    I am wondering if anyone local has done a Gen1 MS3 6speed swap, into a MZ3?

    Yeah, a friend of mine. His buddy bought a mz3 and did the speed swap. It was a bit tricky but he got it done. I believe there were a few bugs he had to sort out. He currently is apart of the Canadian army and I believe he's out in western Canada.

    I think he just wants a 6 speed transmission. I don't think they'll match up

    It may match up to a N/A 2.3L Gen1... but that's a huge maybe

    I have a MS3 that i'm parting out, just wanted to know if its something that would be more of demand sold as a swap package or split up really.

    I had found a write up "how to" off another forum and it seems no more difficult labour wise than a tranny job would be given all the parts were together.
