The 2.5L KL diesel as far as I can tell was only used in a limited numbers of small S.E. asian countries and only in a RWD configuration for use in small mazda commercial truck (not the B series) As I have more recently found that it is actually an offshoot of the Suzuki version of the K series engines.Nd4SpdSe wrote:I wonder if wise-old Yoda can help us out on this one...
If you are thinking Diesel I would consider the diesel version of the FE 2.0 used the the 323F (Protege 5) I have been talking to a guy in France for a few years now that is running over 310hp but over 500ft/lb torque all under 4500rpm in a 323F
WOW just think what that would do in a mx3!!!Yoda wrote:The 2.5L KL diesel as far as I can tell was only used in a limited numbers of small S.E. asian countries and only in a RWD configuration for use in small mazda commercial truck (not the B series) As I have more recently found that it is actually an offshoot of the Suzuki version of the K series engines.Nd4SpdSe wrote:I wonder if wise-old Yoda can help us out on this one...

What cars would have the FE diesel in them? That is a really interesting swap.Yoda wrote:The 2.5L KL diesel as far as I can tell was only used in a limited numbers of small S.E. asian countries and only in a RWD configuration for use in small mazda commercial truck (not the B series) As I have more recently found that it is actually an offshoot of the Suzuki version of the K series engines.Nd4SpdSe wrote:I wonder if wise-old Yoda can help us out on this one...

You would need a chassis, customs axels and a custom bracket or adapter of some sort to make a AWD tranny mate with a KL engine

Re: Diesel KL info???
I know a guy on imazda.com that has done the AWD conversion. I think his name is projectmx. The conversion is crazy. but i bet its so worth it.

a lot more "beefier" to withstand the increased amount of CR required with diesel's ?
Information on the web is non exsistant for this beast, what is the Suzuki variant called?
Answers or tip's or just anything would be gladly appreiated Yoda.

Re: Diesel KL info???
This is from Wikipedia
"The Mazda K series was co-developed with Suzuki, with Mazda reportedly handling the bulk of the design. The early 2.0 L Suzuki H20A and Mazda KF are similar in design, but the two engine families diverged after this. Suzuki focused on building ever-larger torque-producing engines for their SUV lineup, while Mazda focused on high technology and power output. The later Suzuki and Mazda engines do not share many components at all."
