    It's prolly an f-series. Better than what's in there though. And you need to put stiff suspension under it and it'll help. Also bigger wheels will help too. Take that car to the track and let's see what it really does.

          I would like to see the LSD trans.

          Anyways why would you want more traction? So you could do this?

              id like to get it to the track this spring.

              how strong are these trannies? is the f-series any good or should i just look for g-series?

              im thinking about picking up slicks and with a good clutch, its gonna be putting a lot of stress on the drivetrain.

                wow good find! i saw that same festiva multiple times on the forum come up (just people posting about it, i dont think anyone here actually owned it). its one of the cars that helped me make the decision on a bpt build (in progress). good find brother, and yes listen to these guys you are going to get a better tranny. the g series is the most desirable found on the escort gt, the 323 gt, and capri xr2, not 100% on the others i know there are a few more. but that stock b series wont hold up for ever. good thing is the trannys are pretty cheap (their normal to everyone else but perfoemance to us haha). anyway welcome to the site again and that that is on e bad ass mazda 121

                  Every car I have owned has had a turbo in it, until I bought this latest festiva.. I plan to fix that though.

                    ian build another festiva,

                    if theres a punny f series in that car i feel bad for you. i would look into finding a kia G series, its a hydraulic trans but its the stongest of them all

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

                        Does it have a halfshaft? If it does its a g-series.
