Having seen the Automotive Plus 1.5 ND in action at QR, if I had the money I'd do that swap in my NB...but I suspect it'd just be a lot easier to do buy an ND.

I can just imagine this driveline in an NA6 with NA6 brakes, NA6 diff, 13x5" Corolla wheels, 165/75 Supercats, lowered, maybe the ND seats, and with a Lightyear fastback! Best Ecomodder ever! Slowish, but not slow.


I suspect with a 4.3 diff it would fly down low but be a bit busy on the highway.Remember it is a 6speed with 1:1 in 6th so would be doing more revs than a standard NA6A.
Sorry to harp but the ND with something like a 3.7 instead of the 2.8 it comes with would be a great sportscar!!

Would be really interesing to see how much work would be involved in the transplant.

probably written off due to parts not being available for repairs. being as new as it is. the wait for certain parts could be a long time. most of us have experienced the mazda service and parts departments before. haha
