This article is full of information about the 1UZ-FE engine and “tips and tricks” regarding installing this engine in a Volvo 240. LucaCarMods has developed several parts to make performing this engine swap easier, and we are doing our best to add more products to this offering in the future.
Rust at the sills and chassis beams (box girders) is a very common problem with the Mazda MX-5 NA and NB. Fortunately, there are repair panels and very rusty MX-5s are still salvageable! Why does a Mazda MX-5 rust at the sills and side screens? Rust forms when (untreated) steel is exposed to moisture for
