Mazdaspeed6 introduced

it's the same engine design worldwide, just with different tuning for each region's fuel/emission requirements.
but 2 difrent compression ratios? where is crossbow with his manual cause now this is gonna eat away at me.

*edit*

Cylinder head construction is of aluminum-silicon alloy - thermally treated for strength and durability after the casting process - with an asymmetrical, four-valves-per-cylinder design. Two inlet valves (32.5-mm for the 1.8-liter; 35 mm for the 2.0-liter and 2.3-liter) are positioned at 19 degrees, and the two exhaust valves (28 mm and 30 mm, respectively) are positioned at 20 degrees. The compression ratio for the family of 4-cylinder engines varies from 9.7 to 10.8 depending on displacement and market.

Displacement variations for Mazda's new family of engines are achieved by increasing bore size (87.5 mm for the 2.0-liter versus 83.0 mm for the 1.8-liter) while keeping the common stroke length of 83.1 mm for the 2.0-liter and 1.8-liter. The stroke for the 2.3-liter with S-VT is 94 mm.
still searching...

dude its the same block you dont have to change the block to change the compression the JDM 2.3 has different pistons and heads
 
haha.......sorry but you are wrong my well intentioned friend.

totally different block.

the JDM 2.3 which is what they are using for the mazdaspeed 6 is a FFJ

I'd also sell that accord front end so someone can have a real mazdaspeed front facia on their 6...for another profit as well. with the money you can get ligher better looking rims and my taste would be sport package front end.

Autoexe will release a kit I'm sure. Also has anyone else thought that detuning this engine and putting it in the 3 results in a Mazdaspeed 3? Although I don't think it will happen until 2007.

Now that would be something. This I would buy almost sight unseen. Add some aggressive wheels, better stereo, lower it some, tighter suspension. DONE(rockon)
 
WRONG...they are the same block. Different heads/pistons. What would be the point of creating a "world engine" if you used different blocks in every market? The JDM spec version supports Direct injection, as does the European version, but all the blocks still start out as the same. It is a modular design, that is the whole point. The only block that is different is the diesel version for the euro market.

Again...here is THE INFO:

Oh wait...now im REALLLY gonna piss some of you off. It's also the same block in the Focus, Ranger, and soon to be Escape.

Ignorant in the face of facts eh? You sir are definitely from New England.
Hey careful New England bashing there dude, I can hurt people you haven't meet yet that are from a different country.
 
Looks like it will be a nice car with a 2.3 liter four cylinder engine and 274 hp and 280 lb of torque. and Awd. wonder how it will handle and drive look like killer interor also.
 
I didn't intentionaly mean for this to become a sausage kicking fest...just to clear up any or all rumors of JDM specs ;) Play nice
 
The car is sweet cant wait to buy one in 2006 with 274 hp and 280 lb of torque it should fly. The intror is and extiror look great also i have seen a lot about this car but this is the first time i have found these forums. so i guess hey guys. (hi)
 
ok...forget I ever said the Durtec Block wasn't in the JDM engine. If it keeps up the thread may possibly be locked.
 
I have a friend that has an uncle, that goes to church with the mother of someone who works near a Mazda plant who actually heard from a stranger walking the street near the plant that it will be a JDuraMA block with sodium valves and a new ceramic poly piston. (eek2)


Sorry it's late...TFB
