There has been celica motors put into echos, so the 1.8L should fit, but very tight.

These are the pictures of our 1999 Elise, available for track use only, we also have a Type R motor freshly built to go into this car if there is any interest.

I dont think that they actually mean Honda Type R motor, theres alot of Type R things ex: Jaguar S-type Type R

the evo motor would present a whole new area or problems....first being its 2 litre size second, the awd, i know bbs can be awd from japan, howver i dont think the systems are anywhere close to being compatable, why dont people explore the options of this motor, build it, sleeeve the block and spend some time really planning internal mods and who knows, could be a lot better than any of us can imagine
