Prides are a lovely base for Mazda frankensteins... lots of old ones running around with 1.8 turbos here.

There's this guy, KIADOHC (now goes by the name KDWZspeed, or something)... he's done some crazy swaps, mostly B6Ts, but his last one (on record) is a Lantis V6 stuffed under that tiny bonnet (which, to be honest, isn't that hard... it's a small V6. )

https://kiadohcworks.wordpress.com/

Sorry, hard to find good pics of his work... he has some vids of the V6 car running, but the video quality isn't that clear.

Been meaning to see him about resurrecting my own Mazda, but I'm always tight on money...
