From where? and how can I find info on the car?

You're thinking of the 10.5 sec NA ZE powered PGT that I posted pics and info about last fall???

Ya, Josh hit it on the head. Dave's Car has a new owner that got it into 10's, then Some other guy I think with a KL-ZE Turbo setup ran like 10s with full interior...

nice times lol. 12 seconds would be good enough for me though. I am more about playing with the kids on the streets.

amazing job on that mx-3 guys.... wish i lived closer to racing mazda next year i'm hoping to do a turbo set up... This year i have to finish the awd and bp swap... my bottom end is really strong but the top end i've only done a p&p and valve job... how much do your bp kits run?

got the 98 kis trans looks beffier than the LX trans hopefully it can hold up to RIC 700whp goal. trans will be installed soon.

Use a Kaaz Diff in it with Lucas 80w90 Heavy Duty Gear Oil w/ 1 bottl of Lucas Trans Fix and you might hold it...for a little while. Also check out the post on the Pro LX box upgrade options we did not to long ago. Yoda and I delved pretty deep into the topic.

Recommend:

-Billet Dog Gears & Shafts
-Ceramic coat the bellhousings on the inside to keep heat out of the metal
-Kaaz Mazdaspeed Protege LSD w/ full lock up option
-Integrate a front mount oil cooler and electric pump to cool trans fluid

With those mods it should take 700HP as long as your block doesn't twist the tranny case.

Also...I'd love some pics of the tranny you just broke...or the pieces them selves so I can see what failed....I'm guessing the spider gears crumbled if you still had the stock diff in it. Thank you!
