Turbo Rotary Mazda Minitruck Build

[mymmeryloss]

Carfield enterprises...talk to Kafei...anything I have ever needed he has been able to get for me...may take him some time, but he has found some pretty rare pieces for the Protege for me...he is a Mazda guy...

carfieldenterprise.com

Let me know if he can't find it...I have another guy also, but that is who I would recommend first...

cool man, i appreciate it.

i emailed them. hopefully theyre quick with responding.
where are they located? it shouldnt be a hard thing to find if ur in the right place. its like finding a part for a ford ranger if ur in japan or australia, but of course only not in the states. lol.

ill let u know if it falls through or if i dont hear back..

this is the only thing holding me up on my rhd conversion right now

They are out of Japan, but have imported things for me here and are a big sponser of club323f which is the Protege5 site in Europe...I know he does quite a bit of business shipping things to those guys...

sweet! that truck is sick. im def subscribed!

 

[mymmeryloss]

ill keep updating as things progress.

appreciate it a lot scratchie...

ok, if anyone has any family or knows anyone in australia or japan that would be willing to find and ship a rhd steering box out of a ford courier, hit me up.

i am in dire need of one of these...

This guy is very good at finding rare JDM parts are reasonable prices, I'd give him a shout

I don't know much about the going prices for mazda engines, but this site has pretty good prices for hondas. One guy on here bought a H22 from them and said he had no problems with them.

yeah, i have been looking at this site.

thank u for the site, and if anyone else knows any good sites for good engines that actually run when u get them and dont have to rebuuild or replace turbos and s**t, that would be nice..

Figured I would give you the other two guys also...not sure why I didn't just list all three of them...

First is a company here in the US...Corksport...
Second is an admin on astinaGT...which is based out of Australia...

cool man, i appreciate it guys.

i will be sending some emails and making some calls...

does tis mean i have to mention u guys in the magazine article when i get featured? lol

 

[pmac193]

yessir show some CC love


haha

 

[mymmeryloss]

when and if i ever get this thing in a magazine, ill definately throw in come CC love!

 

[ScratchNSniff]

Yep...I want mention...lol...I would suggest Corksport before the other one I posted...I know for a fact they can get the parts over for the 4-Wheel Drive Protege5 wagons, but the conversion is about $6,000 in parts alone...with that being a super rare car over in Japan I don't think they would have a problem finding something simple like the steering setup...

 

[mymmeryloss]

ya it should be an easy find, but i really dont want to pay out the ass for a steering box ya dig?

thats my only drawback. how much do i pay for the last piece to my steering puzzle?

 

[hardcore97]

sick build man cant wait to see it complete!

 

[mymmeryloss]

its going in stages. just got to decide on which engine now..

ugh, decisions decisions..

ugh, decisions decisions..

i still say go with the 2nd gen turbo motor... like i said, its easier to use and can make just as much power as the 3rd gen motor... plus, its way cheaper, and with the money you save on the 2g motor, you can buy upgrades

 

[1FastEX1994]

13B ftw

 

[mymmeryloss]

its either the s4 s5 or fd twin turbo.

i know the turbo II engine will be an easy swap, but im not all about easy, so i still want the twin turbo 13b out of the fd but i will have to relocate the turbos and do a few other things that im really not sure is worth it so ill prolly just end up going with the single turbo rotary out of the fc and call it a day.

200hp stock aitn bad when ur dragging sparks down the interstate, and like u said, i can upgrade this motor for big numbers, and its a 2 rotor so its tiny as hell..

thanks for the input guys.
any other suggestions are welcome!

i feel like this is a good weekend for updates...
