Sounds like a Miata forum already, that is just no good.

however i've spent over 5grand on my mx-3 over the 4 years i've owned wasn't to satisfied i think i just don't like the value part Judging by this signature (95 B6DE 5spd H @ R lowering springs, custom exhaust, 5 spoke noname rims, gtr wing, short shift, alpine mrd 1000 amp, 2 15" ma audio sub...

thanks

I hope u know that ur half shaft axle isn't going to bolt up to your BP if u are going to keep ur f-series trans.. There is a simple solution to that.

BP is a common engine code name for Mazda's 1.8L DOHC

I had to adjust the vaf, fuel pressure and timing accordingly.

OK

whoops i need to change my sig. That was my old mx3 i recently got a new one. The new one is a bp with gtx intake manifold, with an intake and exhaust. Ive got it running nice now i just had to do some tuning. :D turns out it was also running 0* ignition advance :shock: , so i bumped that up to 12*...

u can't do that

Ok that answers the clutch and pressure plate, but a flywheel is bolted on, so no spline counted involved there. Is it any lighter? Stronger? Would i get any advantages over the F series one? Or just f--- it? thx The f-series is a weaker trans than that of the g-series and a kia g-series is a bit b...

kk. Well we did some progress today but we have a small question, can we put the BPT flywheel, clutch and pressure plate on the F series tranny? The clutch disc from the bpt is a 22 spline and the f-series trans shaft is a 20 spline as is the clutch disc with that said u get the picture.. you shoul...

The miata bp oil pan,windage try and oil tube filter has to be swap out for a fwd BP oil pan, windage try and oil tube filter. The miata thermostat housing has to be swap out for the fwd bp thermostat housing. Also on the miata they have a water neck between the cam gears that needs to be block off....

i looked and i found some o2 tuners but idk how to use them .. that is what im talking about but it could be a piggy back idk i looked up o2 and only got one small pease of a thread so this should stay on so you wont be bothered with this again. and what you told me .. you did not answer my questio...

Like i have mention time and time again u can't do a dyno or street tune or any kind of tuning without any kind of EMS (engine management system)/(standalone) or some basic kind of a piggy back system (e-manage) "A wideband O2 sensor is the most accurate way to measure air fuel ratios, allowing...

550cc would be better just make sure u don't go over 90% duty cycle on ur 460cc..

-Custom made intake manifold with a Ford TB 68mm sounds like a good investment. send a pm on some of the stuff u pick out. U are going to run with a N/A BP block..

they have so many names for it ms calls it that tec calls it this etc etc..

460cc seem small but if ur for under 300whp than ur ok..
