4age 323

[themaleman]

has any 1 ever put a 4age in a mazda 323 wagon? im wondering how easy it bould be?

[Ae92typeX]

you talking the fwd or rwd?
fwd I think the old doc turbo would be a more popular option.
rwd, I recall years ago a guy who had done one, although the rota is more popular a conversion (if you can find a decent rwd anymore)

ita a fwd mazda and gona keep it that way, i have a redtop 4age, i think io have everything i need, just wondering how much hasstle it would be 2 mount the engine in the 323

[Mr Revhead]

if you use the 4age gearbox etc itll be easier

note i said easier, not easy.

you will need to make mounts
so basiclly pull all the mazda crap out, lift he toyota box and engine in, then see where everything fits and make a list of all the stuff you have to make. also the axles.... i doubt the mazda ones will fit the toyota box, and i doubt the toyota axles fit the mazda hubs....

as much as i love the 4age, i think for the work and $$$ needed to to do this there are better engine options.

you would be shocked to see what cv's are avalible

i woudlnt be shocked if you couldnt find a match up set......just a matter of spending a few hours lookng though teh books for them

[Caveman]

for the effort of a custom transplant you might as well do something worth while like a 3sgte or pulsar rb20det.

else bp + vf10 go hard

b5 makes as much power as a redtop
