it would be pretty awesome....lol crazy idea though, unless you of course have a gigantic wallet and a ton of spare time

 

[Cleverfrog]

wouldnt that mean using an actual frame under the unibody of the msp?

hmmmm, forgot about that one.....

OP, ok, follow this How-To
everywhere it says HONDA or CIVIC, replace with MAZDA or MSP

eveyrhting is pretty much bolt on.

start by gutting the s*** out of your car, oh BTW, you need a corvette donor..
then, after gutting, hack the whole floor like so:

your corvette donor should be looking like this:

by now.

about 5 minutes after you rmeove absolutely everyhting from your engine bay, drop in the LS1 like so

your interior, at this point, should look like this:

custom fab a cage like this:

also, custom axles, suspension like so

at this point you car should look like this:

install headers like this

then you should end up with somethinglike this

and you are done!

LS1-powered, rear-wheel drive, Mazda Protege Mazdaspeed in 10 easy steps!

An easier option would be to fit a 2.5 KL v6 from Mazda. You can turbo that and make 400HP.
