Kéano’s 2002 Mazda Sport20

My Mazda Sport20, 2002 BJII WorkLog

Hey guys,
My name is Ben Kean and I've just bought a Mazda sport20 2002 BJII which I bought off a old lady driver that has had it since new for $4700
but this car does come with a bad side it has 280000km's on it but she should be right as it's only been country's km's, the plan is for a V6 engine swap for it or the FS-ZE anyways once it's goes :) I figured i would do a work log for my car to show you my progress since my last Mazda on this forum was a big hit !!

The car as it was when i bought it (STOCK AS A ROCK)

Nice man :)

Do you want your tow bar??

Also the V6 swap ?? What were you planing to swap into it ??
For the amount of work and messing around the FS-ZE is pretty hard to go past.

Thanks :)

And yeah I'm gonna keep it as I need it for down hill drift trikes too tow them up the hill and also I kind of like the look of it !!

But I was thinking of the one straight of the V6 Astina but if the FS-ZE is good too ill do that ?

There is seriously way to much messing around for that swap for the small improvement it would be, unless you went for the KL-ZE but good luck with that, azz knows all about it, not worth the trouble.

I'd be doing ZE swap and then one day I will find out how to wire in the ZE ECU and that will be your best gain and then you can stick with ll the direct bolt on parts for the BJ car and motor, so no messing around with everything and no need for engineering.

Rupe is your man to get the motor through. But when your ready just hit me up I'll try and help you organise as much stuff as possible :)

Oh also what brand is the tow bar ?? Mainly interested in the goose neck, I have the bar but the old goose neck don't fit around the skirts :(

Nice tail lights mate..I have the same :)

They are my old ones tim... THE original JDM tails with covers ;) rofl

Nice purchase there Ben! hope ya enjoy it... don't bother with V6 unless you are seriously that dedicated and you are never ever going to sell the SP20.

its a big Pain in the ass and comes with a Big Price tag.

I have made a thread in the Engine & Conversion section a while ago about V6 swap into BJ... read over it. outlines whats involved and the costs associated in NSW to get it rego'ed and legit!

There nice tail lights aye ;) haha I love them !!

But ok I'll read over it bit sounds easier to do the FS-FE AND CHEEPER ahha
