Will the radiator from a '86 to '88 Rx7 fit in the 1st gen miatas('89 to '93)?



Also, what about the injectors? I know about the impedances and such, just wondering if they will physically fit?

I would think the radiator would be way too big.

Yea, I was thinkin the radiator was too big, but I think I might be able to make it work...I mean, we fit larger radiators into our Rx7s, why not larger radiators in miatas, lol...bring on the JB weld





BTW, the reason for these ?s is that I'm installing a turbo kit for a friends miata and I'm tryin to save him some money on some fuel and reliability mods...

You should buy my big radiator. I have a feeling that 160 HP isn't going to require it.

Yeah, but it will be ok for a while. I'm hoping to put the TII transmission and rear in it tomorrow if I feel energetic.
