August 17, 201115 yr comment_547287 W58 :unsure: That Bellhousing has no webbing for extra strength What type of bell housing is that, who makes them? (I know that it’s a 4AGE to W5*) Does that bellhousing slightly tilt the box over to one side? (I have read some of the 4AGE to W5* do) All the best Report
August 17, 201115 yr Author comment_547352 As far as I know it doesnt tilt the box. the bellhousing is from a guy who makes them in the phillipines. I was at a mates garage last night, he has a dellows hiousing for Mazda3>W58…that didn't have any ribbing either... Report

August 17, 201115 yr Author comment_547362 Thanks dude! my engine & Gearbox mounts were made by Shanon @ Simply Maz, but the fabrication after that is all taken care of by my best mate Adam, who's a fabricator by trade. Just sorting out new bolts for the engine mounts & should have the motor back in this weekend. Report

September 24, 201115 yr Author comment_555690 The bandsaw was around $572 from Hare & Forbes…The blade it comes with was rooted within an hour, so buy some extra blades…haha Report
September 25, 201115 yr Author comment_555893 haha Stasi, hurry up and take your motor back...just chuck it in!! Progress is confined to weekends, and considering I'll be away for 2 weeks from this friday, there probably won't be any more progress for a month or so. Next is getting stuck into the brake hard lines, then my hoppers kit for the front end. Report
