I have a serious soft spot for RX-7's. There are some beautiful cars in this thread.

When I was shopping for cars in 04, when I ended up buying the first MINI, I actually stopped by the Mazda dealership in Indy to test drive an RX-8. The only had automatics. The guy looked at me like an alien when I told him I don't drive autos. Of course he was all "Well most women...." yeah okay Mr.

I did test the 6 and it was pretty darn nice. If I had any use for back doors, I wouldn't mind one.

I'd love to do a 13B-T in the Miata.... but that'll cost more then building the BP that's in it

That car is sweet!

**kfzemx3** · 06-25-2006, 11:38 PM

your's is looking good from your Cardomain site, i wouldnt mine having a chance to run against that mx6, knowing i'm gonna loose

Have any idea's of what your hp should be? i know a few probe guys that are putting close to 400 to the wheels turboed

**Twinturbo6** · 06-26-2006, 10:08 AM

NO clue, I was running 310 to the wheels, but now I am rebuilding it, just waiting on parts, etc. I am aiming for about 4 daily, 5 with alcohol injection, and maybe 6 with alky and nos.... we'll see if I can afford the tuning.
Still always wanted an mx3. Used to want one just like yours, now I'm thinking maybe the 4 cylinder, with the new 2.3 turbo mazdaspeed engine swapped in?

**kfzemx3** · 06-26-2006, 01:47 PM

actually there are guys swapping the FE motors in them now and on stock internalls at 18psi he's making 393 whp and says there is more left when he tunes it some more so... if i were to go 4cyl that would be my choice

**kfzemx3** · 06-26-2006, 01:48 PM

also people are swapping the ford focus engines into proteges' so that means you can swap them in the mx3 as well

**Siverprobegt** · 06-27-2006, 01:40 PM

Y would u swap a focus engine into a proteges'???

**kfzemx3** · 06-28-2006, 12:21 AM

more aftermarket support

**Twinturbo6** · 06-28-2006, 02:01 PM

I would love to see the write up on the fe swap.. where would you ever find the Mazdaspeed 2.3 engine at for sale already?

MazMart probably could get you one.

**kfzemx3** · 06-28-2006, 06:36 PM

The motors were actually used in fords in asia prior i cant remeber what the name of the car was

**Twinturbo6** · 06-29-2006, 05:21 PM

**montegoFD** · 06-29-2006, 05:53 PM

**kfzemx3** · 06-29-2006, 09:03 PM

I LIKE THAT PUERTORICAN REAGETON IN THE BACKGROUND HAHAHAHAHA THOSE PUERTORICANS KNOWS THEIR SHIT AHH?

**Twinturbo6** · 06-29-2006, 09:22 PM

Damn, thats massively impressive. And on stock internals? Just boost... imagine boost and alky injection. I definately need to get me one of those. BTW whats the nominclature for the new 2.3 liter direct injection turbo motor? I mean how would I ask someone who has no clue what I was talking about for one?

**JITB** · 06-29-2006, 11:19 PM

its a completly new motor but its called the MzR.. its made off the Duratec 2.3, but its different.

**kfzemx3** · 07-01-2006, 02:13 AM

Well you can technically find this motor in a kia sephia if you wanted to (note this is a much down-graded version).

The motor he is a
FE3N engine 2.0 dohc from a Ford Telstar (626) in NZ

It's apprently pretty simple swap, just need to do some custom fab for the motor mounts (which typically means welding a plate on somewhere so that you can bolt everything up without making NEW motor mounts

)

would probably be best to just try and locate a front clip, I'd give nadauto and BJE a call see if they have it instock, if not you can always have a front clip imported

**scabtastic** · 07-01-2006, 11:16 PM

here's my piece...well its not really a piece...I just don't like it anymore...sucks up way too much gas...

speaking of this....im thinking about selling it... car has about 99xxx origional miles...5 speed...perfect leather interior..few cracks at the bottom of the seats...over all ALMOST perfect condition....had a little fender bender...door and fender was replaced...everthing is perfect....any of yall think i can get 3500-4000 for it?...Sorry thought this would be the best place to ask first.

**kfzemx3** · 07-02-2006, 03:58 AM

your more likely to get 2500 to be honest, unless you have some major modifications done to it. Sucks our resale value isnt that great.

**scabtastic** · 07-02-2006, 10:51 AM

i know....makes me want to cry....all thats done to it is a Borla exhaust...and that's it.

**Twinturbo6** · 07-15-2006, 05:43 PM

is it a 6 cylinder, or 4? looks good thou....

**kfzemx3** · 07-15-2006, 07:56 PM

yea its clean i wouldnt mind having an mx6 or probe but i dont think i would want another v6 as i already have one and dont feel like doing another klze swap any time soon. Though its soooooo tempting

I'll cry if i ever see Twinturbo6's setup

i'm debating now to go with the Mrspeed's supercharger kit that puts out the 6psi since i have a ze that will be a decent boost of power and will still run will run safe. BUT i hear bad things about that guy keeping up with his orders so dunno.

Deffinetly a nice car though, you should keep it and turbo it

Nothing like a turbo V6 to scare people

**Twinturbo6** · 07-16-2006, 11:36 AM

Hey I have a probe, needs a new bumper, and side skirts, but has a klze in it. its in the boonies, I need to get rid of... too bad you don't live closer....I started the swap and never finished... like i said boonies!!!

**Siverprobegt** · 07-16-2006, 03:18 PM

2 bad i ain' looking for a next probe!!

**kfzemx3** · 07-16-2006, 06:54 PM

your EVIL!!!! dont tell me this!!! sigh.... damn gas prices

thats easy fix as if i were to get a probe gt i would be putting the millinium kit on it.
