sr in miata?

[95sr240]

hey guys i just read the ka motor thing in the miata. has anyone ever done a sr motor in the miata i think it would be cool. i know the miata has a great engine but was wondering if anyone has a link or seen a sr in a miata that would be pretty cool. i have a 240 with an sr but i want a miata as well i love those little cars.

sr+miata = weakLS1+Miata= 10 sec car

The SR can be male 300WHP really easy, so it would be a good combo I would think. Fairly cheap as well, SR's can be had for FAR less then LSx's.

Great idea, Miata is a really nice car but need more power.

A guy on my Miata forum has one...

Oh, and here is some pics of the motor

The SR or CA are both good candidates for a Miata swap.

Sorry to dig this thread up from the grave, but that is a dope (Yes I know I am using the word "dope") Miata.

the guys from PXR are local to me. They aren't that far from my house (Travis AFB). Ray had a pretty beasty S14 too. PXR guys do some really crazy fabwork in that tiny garage of theirs....

I was having a 331 Miata built for me a few years back...would have been totally insane, but I got orders to Okinawa and got hooked into Skylines and Nissan from there.

The LSx Miata is basically what grass roots racing is all about. Take a great handling light weight car, install a light weight high power motor and you achieve a car that is pretty damn close to perfection. I had a Miata for 1.5 years...loved it. If it only had 2-3 more inches of leg room. At 6'2" I'm just a touch to tall.

Surely its not lighter than the sr or ca is it?

actually im the same hieght and i dont mind the leg room i have been driving my dads alot lately more then my s14 and i am used to the small space. its like a little noke its comforting, and when i drive bigger cars like my moms altima or my gf's focus i feel like i am standing up and i hate having such a large gap between my legs and the steering wheel. also i would like to point out the pedals are perfect in a miata. thts it im makin dad buy an sr and were dropping it in lol. ps. i still love my kouk its plunty comfo still

Im sure its very very close, I wrote something up about the LS1/LS6 weights, They are very light, lighter then the KA24s.

Wow i would have never guessed... Ive heard the KA is pretty heavy. But i didnt know about the CA or SR, i knew they were close to each other around 180kgs.

BTW that third video is just bad ***.

I never though I would see that car again... I tried to run that miata...(lost)Crazy go-cart.....

I seen the ls1 miata on LS1tech. I forgot his user name tho.
