    I would like to introduce myself and say hello!
    I stopped going on the mazda forums quite a while ago,people were very narrow minded and i couldnt take it.funny story a kid was looking for headbolts for his STOCK b6,i recomended headbolts.com,this person told him to get arp bolts then proceded to argue with me y they are better for him!!!! i didnt think you needed the extra clamping force for 88whp and a k&n filter...whatever!
    so anyway i have many factory manuals(and read them from time to time),parts and wiring diagrams(and actually use them) for festivas and many mazdas we use for parts. i have built many cars and feel i have decent knowledge on these things,i just happen to live in an area where nobody really likes the cars i do,if you have any questions or need info let me know and i will try to contribute where i can. thank you and i look foward to meeting some people with the same intrestes!!

      Welcome to the site! There are some really cool people on this site and lots of people who've done all kinds of engine swaps to these cars so any questions just feel free to ask

      1988 323 Station Wagon - KLG4 swapped
      1988 323 GT - B6T Powered
      2008 Ford Escape - Rollover Survivor

      1990 Festiva - First Ever Completed KLZE swap (SOLD)

      If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?

        Welcome.

        What makes this site so much better than other car forums, is the lack of "attitude". If you're tired of the 'tude found on the other forums, you're going to love it here.

          I know we have members in those places.

                actually its the k8 out of mx3 gs,in my protege,not a fun thing to do! i like the v6,i hear many people think they r junk,a matter of opinion..... the bottom end has 85k i redone the top end,i think the egr is the most problem in them nut a 4 cent vaccum cap fixes it.
                the sound of it is awesome!

                  I guess i should have read a bit closer and i would have realized it says protege instead of probe ops:

                  But ya i keep hearing mixed things about the engines but i'll find out soon enough
