basically you need a v6 mx3 parts car. cause you need the crossmember, shifter linkage, engine wiring, mounts, passenger side actual frame bracket, midshaft, and passenger side axle. for the drivers side axle, you will need a mtx BP kia sophia axle. your stock suspension/ or whatever you already have will work fine with this set up.~PaTricK~

don't be selfish men, if you did the v6 swap without help good for you but if you don't want to answer question from rookies when you see that question if you don;t have nothing goo to say don't say anything..
i read a lot about it but im asking to whom really did that

no. maybe the harness. and 1 or 2 of the mounts maybe, but thats about it. the v6 mx3 crossmember, shift linkage, bracket mount, and passenger axle are specific to only that car. the probe/mx6 versions are different, and wont work.
the biggest head ache doing the swap is figuring out a radiator set up in all truth. anyone with a decent grip on mechanics can do this swap. me and pile of rd1 got his done in a week. while working full time job's, and being baked through the entire thing. lol. hell, the BP was pulled, and KL was fully bolted in, in the 1st 24 hours. which was only 24 hour's after deciding to do it in the 1st place! haha!!~PaTricK~

Srsly. GUyz.
If you honestly read this entire thread, as well as my old thread with the red 323 and searched as you say you have and still don't see how it comes together, perhaps this endeavor is not ready for you yet. Start small, like all of us did.
My first mod, and I was proud as **** when I did it, was a home depot 'cold air' intake with HVAC flex ducting and those plumbing rubber boots. I didn't even know what a clutch was back then.
