hey all i was woudering if the mazdaspeed 3 6spd mtx would bolt up to a v6? or do i have to swap internals. would like to have 6 gears in the car.

thanks for the help and info.

no.

I would love a 6 speed, but atlantamx3 said it best.

The MazdaSpeed3 have nothing in common with the Mx-3, at all

Not true, they both go zoom-zoom.

Doh, forgot about the zoom-zoom factor

Maybe someone with access to CNC machine can make an adapter plate.....

sure, cause other things like axles, mounts, clutches, lflywheel, inkages, etc don't matter to make it all work.

wow, the negativity...

Ofcourse all i can do is just talk - unless atlanta comes up with his amazing photoshop overlays to show why it wont work ...

or maybe yoda can step in and settle this once and for all.....

Anything can be done if you have the money!!!!


There you go case settled.

Even if I had the money, I wouldn't waste it on a Mazda 3 trans. I'd go with something even more expensive!

I agree...., like that totally delicious setup they had on the BTCC Mondeos, an Xtrac six-speed sequential gearbox with the driveshaft passing through the 'V' of the engine...., it's only money lol!

Ha,ha, yup, that's more along the lines of what I was talking about. I saw a sweet setup in one of the Speed world challenge Mazda 6's here in the states. Tripoint engineerings best upgrade for the Mazda 6.
