Bringing this back from awhile ago.. Im wanting to buy a MAZDA BP motor. It looks like i may have to throw some cash at my B6 soon, So why do that when i am wanting to swap soon, And i can just put the money into the BP. Don't have alot of cash as im still in school, So affordable prices would be nice . I hope to get some sellers this week! Thanks!

don't forget wire harness and ecu

thank you, yes! im am going to need those goodies too!!

i might be buying a bp off of JWMX3, its out of a 93 merc tracer, what all am i going to need for the swap? help would be greatly aperciated thanks!

check the FAQ. a few good writeups in there.

But generally, into a SOHC, you only need to run a VICS wire and swap the gauge thermosensor, oh, and change the fuel rail connector.

into a DOHC you need to lengthen a few wires and its generally easier to just grab the BP (or a SOHC) harness

yeah mines a DOHC, so wont need to get the ECU? just the wiring harness?

sorry to be rude here...

but if you don't know, you should wait until you do. The info is posted every f'n where/

you should do some more research on this for you car. It took me quite a while to figure everything out, but it was worth it. As far as wiring goes, not only do you need a harness and ecu, but you will need to rewire the other 3 plugs connected to your ecu, the 2 small white ones and the black one. There are a couple wires in those plugs that have to be changed so your cluster will work properly. I got my information on that stuff from the 2 shop manuals that I got right from mazda, one for the 90-94 pro and one from the 94+ mx-3.

Like it was said above, not being rude here, but search around a bit and you will be glad you did in the long run. Also check out clubprotege.com, they have a lot of usefull info on there and people are always selling the parts you are looking for. Off the top of my head, there is one guy selling a BP ecu for $20.....smokin' deal.

Good luck and have fun researching.
