Ok so as you can tell by the title, I am going to be swapping a bp into my prodx and I have already started but i haven't really gotten a chance to take many pictures because I didn't have a camera but now that i have one im going to have to start taking pictures from the current position of my swap.
I have some plans in the future of going turbo, hopefully by the summer. Here are some pics
The bp that was posted here on the internet sightings page. This was an ebay auction the winning bidder ended up not paying so i was given 2nd chance offer, I took it ended up paying $130 cash for this motor supposedly with 60k on it.
Just couple of parts i have lying around, the red grille is the stock one at the top rest of grilles have been bought of members on this forum, including the slant headlights. I am going to be going with the familia grille and slanted setup but i need the hood, ill probably end up buying the hood at a later time
u code vaf, mazda bp fuel rail, mx-3 center console all from members on cp
my bp09 ecu hidden in there, also bought from member here.
mx-3 rear center console, dash board also from here
Shots of car exterior in gutted mode right now while being worked on
it came with those rims and tires so i just kept them, people said the passenger fender and door look like they have bullet holes in them but i cant figure out caused the damage, I think ill just end up fixing it at my shop my self.
Here is the b8 that i have started to pull. As you can see many sensors and hoses are disconnected but not all, this is my first swap so im taking this as a learning experience and trying to build on it.
Guttd interior wit just 2 seats in there for the hell of it, along with RSX exhaust that someone just gave me for no reason.
here is the rear of the car, i started sanding the rear bumper in preparation of painting the whole car over.
another shot of the interior wit my mx-3 center cover also from member, The cover won't fit because i need the back peice, the protege one doesn't fit it correctly.
Installed lx cluster jsut for hell of it to see if it worked before i pulled the motor. It runs good i also bought this from someone here, I tried driving around with it and the fuel cut off for the b8 is like 6500 so i couldnt even get to reach the redline on my new tach
Couple shots of the rear gutted, along with a pair of jeans, idk why they are there.
here is my bp after i painted it with some highheat paint real quick because there was some surface rust on it before. I also painted the valve cover and clear coated it to give it that nice shiny look.
I am still waiting for the clutch for my f-series (yes thats what im planning on matting this bp to, and even boosting it in the future) and the bp harness which is for an EGT so i going to have to do slight modifications to get it to fit. I have more pictures but they are on phone and are just mostly of the car when i first bought it, but from now on ill be updating wit progress on the build. Feel free to leave criticism comments or whatever . Thanks
