hi....i have a mx3 and i dont know what type of box it is using.... on the bell housing is a paper stamp with F505 on it.......on the housing lower down on the box has F5D2??????
if its the 4 cylinder then its most likely the f25m-r, the g series trans are much stronger than the f series trans if you are looking to swap then I would opt for the g series.
I believe the F25M-R was first manufactured in 94'. F5M-5 was it's predecessor.
94' RS/GS/MS/CF Monster Turbo...coming soon.
93' GS SE, the Black Beast, the former love of my life...soon to be gutted and crushed.
94' GS, black on black, now in several small pieces...and one large crushed piece.
2007 Mazda3 GT Sport --- super fun
2004 Honda RC51 --- Lost forever to some theavin' bastard My Worklog My feedback thread Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.
If you can shift into reverse while still rolling without grinding it, you have a F25M-R.
If you can't, F5M-R.
