My Lada Niva 4x4
Mine was a 95 model 2121 with 1.6 litre Fiat engine. The engine burst after 2 years of hard fourwheeling.

A mazda V6 3,000cc fuel injected engine was mated to the Lada transmision and shoved under the bonnet but the bonnet just won't closed so a hole was cutted and a large fibreglass scoop was fabricated. Walla ! the  fastest Lada North of Borneo even a Proton VR4 have problem keeping up.

RM20.00 of fuel a day burn a hole in my pocket so out go the V6 and in go a 2C Toyota turbo diesel. It fit nicely with  minor alterations to the mountings. I keep the Niva divorce mounted transfer case. This engine are both torquey and economical to run you won't believe the fuel meter reading.
The final look of my Lada will be like this.
