Im building a new project for the shop race car. Its a 2013 Mazdaspeed3. Plans changed on this project. It started out as a X275 LS powered. Now its full tube chassis with a BBC twin turbo. BUT! I will still set it up for my 427LS3 motor too so I can easily change to the LS platform for some LS event and races.

Curious, was this a blown up or salvage car?

Or did you just hack up a nice runner? Not that I care since its a mazda... lol

Perfectly good low mileage runner. lol Just doing some upgrades :-)

what transmission you going to use?

Nothing set in stone yet. But it will probably be a single turbo LS. But it could be a super serious twin turbo big block or possible a roots blown LS. Dont know yet but the car should be ready for the power plant later this season.

Interesting choice, lots of mods to make it rwd though. Very interested to see details on this since I work on Mazdas for a living. Those can be made pretty quick with the stock motor with some intake/exhaust and tune work, but nothing like what you look like you're doing. Love to see what you do to this thing.

updates? I dig non belly button cars!

Man ive had so much going on I haven't done a lot to it lately. But believe it or not Im actually out here working on it right now. Working on the front suspension and steering.
