Does anybody know if the 2.5 4 banger in the CX-5 uses the same bolt pattern as the 2.0 in other cars like the CX-5 with a 2.0 or a Miata? I'm not changing my engine, I was just asked a question and figure I'll get a bunch of answers here. Some might even be right.

 

Bolt pattern for what?

 

Engine to transmission. I had a Miata owner tell me that I ever total my car out, if I buy it back, he'll give me $500 more than I pay for it. Evidently he wants to drop the 2.5 in place of the 2.0 in his car. I've done similar conversions and if you have the whole car with all the harnesses and such, it makes it a lot easier.

I'm not planning on wrecking my car. It still looks new.


Not bad for 6 years old.
