323 v6 swap

[low and slow]

need some help again hehe.
do i have to change the pasanger side engine mount braket to, i dident get my v6 engine mount to fit and do the mx-3 bracket fit the 323

[jitb37]

yes, u have to change the whole thing, the whole bracket has to be unbolted from the mx3, and put into the 323. not just the mount. The whole sectiont thats mounted to the body. its only 4 bolts i think.

[low and slow]

hello have a problem again i fitted my mx-3 axel now, but it to long so i cant mount it up then i mean the 2 bolts that goes tru the shock absorder leg and spindle
it just 1 or 2 cm
hope you understand that

[low and slow]

just read your v6 guid again, and is it so i only ned the drivers side axle.
i only mounted the pasanger side and that dosent fit.
if i switched the outer axel to 323 will it fit then (this is pasanger side)
and the mx-3 axle on the drivers side is a direct bolt on

[jitb37]

You need both side axles. What year and model did you axles come from? make sure they are form a 90-93 GS. And is the halfshaft the corrct one also?

[low and slow]

its from a 92 i dont now if it is a gs, is it any other models ?

[MD323]

its from a 92 i dont now if it is a gs, is it any other models ?

the GS was the V6 model, the rest are I4's, and use different axles

[jitb37]

yea, it has to be a GS (v6), the Rs is a 4cyl and it uses basically the same axles as your 323...lol They also have a SE model which is also v6. But they are hard to come by.

[low and slow]

only i now at it is a v6 i dont now wich modell it is if it are a gs or the se but i gonna call mazda and hear becaus i have the chassi nr

i dont now if have any thing to say but the car i take the axles from has abs

[escortkid]

just an idea on the radiator thing why not go to your local radiator shop most places that repair/ make radiators can make up a custom one for you. for instance i have a custom one in my first gen escort thickness of a f-150 rad but same length width of a stock scort rad and the endcaps are aluminum.

alredy done that have contactet radiatorservice her in norway but i dont bother to order one befor i get the car run

[low and slow]

hmmm now i mounted up the drivers side axle and its fits perfectly.

im verly confused why the pasenger side dosent bolts up jitb37 why did you change the right side spindle

and i dont now if this has anything to whit the problem my car is a 1.8 soch 90 does this have anything to do whit the problem maby different spindles from the doch

[jitb37]

i had to get a new spindle because my wheel bearing were screwed up. My wheel would wobble like crazy. Myabe check the part number on that spindle.

My origianl p[an was to get a cutsom radiator.. still might go with that tho.. my plans change by the hour...lol

[low and slow]

i have a last plan now i think i can make a 323 mx-3 hybrid outer axle i gonna us the 323 axle and use a mx-3 cv joints and mx3 bearings that goes innside the inner cv joints.
i think this will go but i not sure yet i was trying to put the outer joints to the 323 axle and it fit on the axle and i taked some measurement and i think it will work

i gonna try this tomorw then i will se if the works

[low and slow]

okey nothing of that worked but i find out that the inner half shaft from the 323f 2.0 v6 automatic transmission is a little bit shorter i dont now why but that is little extra i need to get it on i hope and anybody her now if the Shifter & Linkage is the same from a 323f (also now as astina) and mx-3
