WOW!! OMG!! A Russian FTO owner... Privet!
It's defenetly a Non-Mivec Engine, cos you can tell by the location of the oil cap, With the Mivec engines, the oil cap will be on the drivers side of the engine, your is on the other side.
You have to tell us what owning an FTO in Russia is like... and if there are many over there... Are there any clubs there? I can't belive it, it must be really bad on some of the roads out there! What city are you from?
I can't help you with engine swaps though...

the 6a12TT has the same HP as the Mivec however heaps more torque and you can boost it quite safely to make more power... it also more or less drops straight in.
the 6a13 takes a lot more effort to get into the car but will result in more power...

I thought that this was a bigger job than the 6A13TT cause the gear box is mounted on the wrong side
