TDI Into 2006 Mazda 5
Well i'm finally starting my Mazda 5 tdi conversion. So far it's been a slow process. Last year I purchasd a 97 Passat for the donor. I picked up this poor abused Mazda 5 for $800 and spent days cleaning the interior. I don't think the owners ever cleaned it once and they lived down a long dusty road. words cannot even describe how nasty this thing was but i could see the potential. Right now i'm in the process of building custom shift linkage as I want to keep it in the factory location. I need to start building engine mount brackets and install fuel and clutch paddles. I'll try to update this as I make progress. Feel free to share you thoughts and ideas.
Thanks
