there is nothing you can do with any JDM engine swap to make it OBD2 compliant since OBD2 is just the american governments way to stick it to us and nothing like it even exists in any other country around the world...the ONLY thing you can do is go buy a 95 or lower miata and change the exterior to appear to be whatever year you want...
