Yeah, there are some MR2 motors that will go in your car... The 5S-FE and the 3S-GTE. If California won't let you put an older motor in your car, I seriously doubt if they'll allow a custom RWD conversion on a FWD car. By the way, the MR2 may be RWD, but it uses a FWD drivetrain. Your options, as stated above, are virtually limited to a newer V6. Your best bet is to keep your 7A and keep it maintained and running top notch until you can do a V6 swap.
