| Nicwe build.. How do you plan on reinforcing the frame? Doesn't the mid engine design give some stability to begin with?

I still have the engine, but I don't plan on doing the swap any time soon, if at all. I picked up a 93 MR2 with a bad motor that I've been building for a street/strip car, and the spyder is now being built just for autocross. | |

Probably not. The 93 will have a 2.2 stroker. I'll make a build thread on that once it's finished if anyone is interested. | |
