I have a 94 Awd 1.2L MPFI with 240,000 miles and found a 91 2wd with a bad EVCT that has 94,000. I assume that there is alot of compatibility in parts between the two cars but wanted to consult the experts before I pull the trigger on buying.
Specifically, will the 91 1.2L MPFI from the 2wd bolt up to the bell housing in the 94 AWD? Are the struts the same? Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks, Mike

**noaz**, welcome to this forum I believe that the bell-housing is integrated into the transmission in both cases. The motor will swap without an issue. Keep your starter from the 5-speed, the ECVT uses a different part. The ECVT 2WD vehicle will have compatible: - Front suspension (brakes, axles, hubs, struts, steering, etc...), - Almost all MPEFI components can be swapped (from the fuel tank, to the ECU) just not the wiring harness. How much does a 2WD ECVT (broken trans) vehicle cost in your area? Where are you located? -RRJ

Thanks for the info on swapability_ I'm located in the land of non-rusty-justy. I'm in the process of buying the 2wd bad ECT with 94,000 miles for $800 and got the 4wd 250,000 mile car for $800.
I'll post pics in a week or so after I pick it up.
On another note. I have a 4 door 4wd with high miles and now have this 2 door. Is there pros and cons to having a 2 or 4 door rally Justy. I'm putting a roll cage in the back of the 4 door and kind of like the access to the back through the rear doors. I also bought a turbo and manifold takeoff (BMW 351i). The ports and spacing will work great with a cnc milled aluminum adapter between the head and manifold, only a mm or so of difference in port alignment. So I was thinking of building the 4wd 4 door as a rally and keeping the 2wd to build as a straight nice Justy. There isn't a ding on the thing. Anybody got input?
Also on the turbo build_ I get the benifits of a megasquirt but could a guy get away with a rising rate fuel regulator as long as the boost was <10psi? Would also need new higher rate fuel pump and aditional base fuel regulator. Any ideas?
Thanks, Mike
