Hey /o/, in my search for lightweight car with decent power I've come across two great options. Both options are dead reliable, and with all said and done I plan to drop $15,000 into the car and will daily drive it once done so no forced induction.

>$2000 nc miata with no engine
>$6000 to goodwinracing for 2.5L mzr swap (200whp) (this includes labor)
>$7000 left over for mods

>$2000 mr2 spyder with no engine
>$5000 1.8L 2zz monkeywrenchracing swap (190whp)(includes labor)
>$8000 left over for mods

Which do you guys think is better? I'm leaning towards the miata of the torque, the MR-S doesn't really make power till 6k rpm.

the listed engine swaps drop right in and bolts to the stock transmission, it's basically like swapping in an oem engine

Why not just buy an FD RX-7? For 15k you're really going to buy a tarted up version of a cheap little car rather than getting something in the league above?

this

the 2.5 mzr is literally bored and stroked 2.0 mzr

>>16576500
dynotronics did 2 of my friends NCs and the power is great

it wont rev as high but the difference in torque is ridiculous

driving a swapped NC made me want the 2.5 over a FI setup fer dat reliability

What about the S2000 if you have 15k? I guarantee that it would be a better daily then those 2.
>>
>>16576546
It wouldn't because all the power is up top. The miata beats it out in daily drivability
>>
>>16574359
Where do you even find those
>>
>>16576562
Thats what's fun about it, you keep your revs high. If you wanted low rpm power get a V8 or something.

a 2.5 swapped NC would be noticeably faster than the s2000

and then you dont have to drive a honda
and then you dont have to mod a honda
and then you dont have to insure a 15 year old "sports car"
and then you dont have to talk to people in the honda scene
and then you dont have to get sad when you realize there isnt a clean, unmolested s2000 left, anywhere

>>16576576
you dont
theyre all riced
or have a ls swap
or too expensive AND riced

Do not buy a miata.

Get the MR2

https://youtu.be/HKlGe1W2E8s?t=207
>>
>>16576752
not relevant because the thread is about engine swapped nc and mr2
>>
>>16576774
The video is about a light weight mr2 absolutely blasting through the corners?

Are you retard >Miata owner?
>>
>>16576782
lol no but i can read
the mrz is a 2zz but doesnt race a swapped mx5

so we just posting videos for fun?

>>16576792
I was posting a video about the driving dynamics of the mr2, something OP would be interested you mong

>>
>>16576858
You do realize the civic could probably do the same to either the Miata or the mr2?
>>
>>16574320
I wonder how much weight one can strip form a NC. But with $7000 on tap it can loose a lot.
>>
>>16576874
post a civic walking a swapped mx5 or mr2 then

a 2.5L swapped NC would feel and be much quicker than an s2000

Keep in mind an s2000 is about 400lbs heavier and down 500cc (comparing ap1, because that's the only one you're gonna get at decent condition for $15k)
