Since so many NICOclub staffers and members own a Miata, here's a spot to discuss the car Nissan wishes it had built!

I love the 1UZFE swaps. Matt Farrah reviewed one that is track prepped running the same engine, but that one you posted is quite a sleeper.

It looks right at home in the engine bay too compared to an LSX. I wouldn't mind swapping one of these in myself, but i'm not sure how much trouble it is compared to a standard V8 swap.

for the time and cost you can be much faster with a 1.8 that is a better match for the car.
