Hey, you must be confused bro. I've never heard of a v6 protege, and i dont really know if the swap can be done. But if there in fact is a v6 protege some things that may happen are:

1. You may not have enough room, the klze in the protege is a REAL TIGHT fit, so you may have a jam packed engine bay like a 300zx.

2. Your crossmembers may be different and may not work without some real fabrication.

3.Your stock tranny may not fit the v6 block so you may have to buy a used tranny, axles, half shaft, mounts, etc.....and let me tell you it is NOT cheap for your car, if you had an older car, it would be different.

Anyway theres alot to consider man, its not a stroll in the park. I'd go for something a bit more reasonable and something thats been done before. I'd personally just make do with what you have. If you had a first gen protege, then you would have ALOT more options. Anyways good luck and if you need a hand, let me know. Peace
