Hi all,
New to the forum and am hoping to get some info.
I've got a 2013 DE Mazda 2 (Australian delivered) 1.5L petrol.
I've got a stupid idea to make it into a full blown sleeper build and wanted to know if anyone has a demio AWD or experience with the AWD.
Ultimately I'm looking at converting my 1.5L petrol FWD to AWD (or just importing an AWD model) and doing the following:
Fully built motor with capacity increase to between 1.7L and 2.0L
BIG injectors
Custom intake and exhaust
Turbo and/or supercharger
Brake upgrades
Coilovers all round with upgraded suspension components to match
Clutch and transmission upgrades
Motec ECU with completely custom programming.
Aiming for 180-200hp at all 4 wheels with complete custom gearing in the awd system to run a 50/50 driveline split
I need to know: AWD options
Do I get the demio parts and bolt them all in or do I retrofit a cx3 system which might need less modification to strengthen?
How available are the AWD models of the demio in Australia if anyone knows?
I'm a technician and auto electrician so am all across doing all the work but need to make some pretty big decisions before I start the project.
I want to do this as it has never been done (at least not in australia) and my previous performance builds caught too much attention from the police so want a stealth AF sleeper that will blow the doors off most vehicles at the track.
I'm not about to skimp out on components and I manage a custom shop so have all the facilities I would likely need to do the project I just need this information to get the plan started.
