G10 powered Miata in Jackson Michigan
Hi ‘ya folks!
Last year I put a Suzuki G10 engine in a Mazda Miata. MX5. I documented most of the major issues involved on another forum.
The project required a modest amount of fabrication and took about six months of evenings and weekends to complete.
The swap was a success and I’m getting 45+ MPG in real world driving. I can get over 50 MPG if I modify my driving.
The project was a low cost prototype to evaluate the concept. I made a lot of compromises to keep the weight as low as possible. The finished weight is 1960 pounds with a full tank of fuel.
I drive the car on a regular basis and it is very reliable.
I look forward to being a contributing member.
Jim
