    I found this to be a valuable resource! That swap was done with a Capri setup so keep in mind that there are a couple of minor differences with the Mazda 323 parts. There are a couple of people on the forum that have been extremely helpful, shadetree and advancedynamix to name just two, during my build.

    You could check out my build thread too. It's taken a few twists and turns along the way but I'm getting really close!!!

        My suggestion is use a later protege,egt,tracer trans. There more commonly available and have stronger casings. The festival store will soon have a conversion plate for the hydro trans.

          I already have a trans for the job from the capri.
