[jbass]

I would like to know if there is some cams available for the mazda3 as I am waiting for them for my port and polish...That would be REALLY nice!

2.3 MZR is the same as the Duratec 23

Doin some research...

and found that the Mazda engineered MZR is also known as the Duratec in Fords...

The small I4 MZRs replaced all of Ford'z Zetech engines...

So if you are looking for cams.. look around for Duratec cams... for the focus and fusion...i think

based on the fusion's engine specs, they are using the same 2.3 MZR engine found in mazda 3s and 6i...

its all because of FoMoCo... that these Mazda engines get renamed to something else.

Crower makes cams for the Duratec 23.. which should fit into the 2.3 MZR...

though i don't really know for sure.... you should call up crower to be sure..

also compare engine model numbers.....

: : EDIT : :

Due to the fact that the MZR engine is now going to be found in many Mazdas (3, 5, 6, MX-5, CX-7) a MZR tuning section should be put inplace... instead of an engine performance section for each type of car...

MZR tuning should be broken into NA and FI and thats all...

There are no cams for the Mazda3 yet. You can not use the cams for the Focus 2.3L as they are different.....the intake is for sure.
The Fusion is the same as the Mazda3. Hopefully it will help bring some cams/larger tb and other parts that will swap over.

You could always get some custom made.

VVT takes us out of the running for the focus cams. though a couple tuning companies said they'd look at disabling the system, so we might be able to use em....?? we'll find out soon enough.

Draxas as well as FocusSport seem to be pushing a lot to get stuff moving for the Fusion, so hope they get something going. just have to wait and see.
