It looks nicer in real life hard to take the photo of plastic finish.

Just a small sample of the 13B "love" out there.

Bigger Brakes for MONDA

Went with an AP Racing Caliper Kit that still almost clears the 15x8 RIM's But offers a bit more pad surface area and AP Racing rotors are quite

nice as well.

New Diff for MONDA

Went with a KAAZ 1.5 way LSD will be the first Aftermarket LSD I have used never broke the Factory Torsen in the old RX7 and the racecar has had a CIG spec spool from day one. Have decided to stay with the 4.1 ratio as it suits the engine well.

These guys thought so much of the Rotary they swapped it for Batteries.

it's actually a good read.

God Bless Mazda, we think the Mazda 3 MPS engine in the RX8 would have been such a better car. We know a Blown K24 or an LS1 would be even better again.

Is this the Worlds Fastest FWD track car ? 58.9 seconds at Wakefield Park

Stroke it Just Right - Little Big Blocks

No Replacement for Displacement ?

We have the following permutations. For marketing purposes when the engine is greater than the halfway point between two decimals they always round up, sometimes they go a little early as well.

2.453 = 53/100 cc so it's a 2.5 litre

2.538 = 38/100 cc so it's really a 2.5 litre or but may get called a 2.6.

K20* - OEM 86.0 mm x 86.0 mm @1998 cc (121.9 cube) displaced. K24 - OEM 87.0 mm x 99.0 mm @ 2354 cc (143.7 cubes) displaced.

K24 - Aftermarket 87.25 mm x 99.0 mm @ 2368 cc (144.5 cubes) displaced. or 87.50 mm x 99.0 mm @ 2381 cc (145.3 cubes) displaced.

K25 - Aftermarket ( + 99 cc) 87.5 mm x 102.0 mm @ 2453 cc (149.7 cubes) displaced. K25 - Aftermarket (+ 184 cc) 89 mm x 102.0 mm @ 2538 cc (154.9 cubes) displaced.

K26 - Aftermarket (+ 259 cc) 89 mm x 105.0 mm @ 2613 cc (159.4 cubes) displaced.

K27 - Aftermarket (+ 318 cc) 90 mm x 105.0 mm @ 2672 cc (163.1 cubes) displaced. *Note in theory you can stroke a K20 engine but it's more common to create a frankenstein motor with the K20 head on the K24 bottom end.

here is a handy calculator

Next Level your Monda with the Catfish

How would you like to remove 250 kg, make your car stiffer with better aero. Yeah me three. With a 750 kg kerb weight and even the Stage 1 175 rwkw engine K24 package this would be a crazy weapon 4.2 Kg/Kw putting it ahead of things like the 458 Italia at 4.43 Kg/Kw

FD3S Forever

The FD3S from Mazda is basically the best chassis they have produced for those not old enough to remember the early to mid 1990's held a Japanese car maker sports car war let's just stick to the two door's. TOYOTA Supra RZ (great Turbo engine for 1990's) NISSAN Skyline GTR (great Turbo engine for 1990's) HONDA NSX (Good N/A engine for 1990's) MITSUBISHI 3000 GTO (crazy complicated no more to say) MAZDA RX7 (high temps, unreliable debut twin scroll turbo Rotary)

The FD3S has  - Good Brakes - Good Suspension Geometry - Good Aero/Drag - Good Steering - Front Mid Ship Packaging - Reasonable Interior and Dashboard - Light Weight Once you free it from it's turbo rotary shackles you will still have many years of stress free motoring in it. We think the K20 Turbo is the best fit for this car. A Supercharged K24 would also perform very well.
