hey, i was thinking about putting a mazda 3speed moter in my stock mazda 3 with lowering springs. Has anyone eles do or thinking about it? Any tips would help.

 

Sorry man but as far as I know and have heard from others the motor wont line up with the mounts and it would require more work and money than it would be worth. Best to look into getting work on your motor and a turbo upgrade for the car if you have money to burn.

 

Pretty sure the speed motor is larger and won't line up to the mounts. In reality it's not even worth the cost to do, either is trying to install a turbo. I know its been done and in the end it's cheaper and a better investment to just buy a speed3.
