i'm thinking of getting a bseries pickup, but would like to find out more about their modability and such.

is there a good truck enthusiast forum dedicated to b-series?
a google search didn't really yeild anything but a bunch of mixed forums.

 

What's Modability?..(how the Vehicle can be Modified?)..You just made That word up!...it's Ok though..I just REXtified the Whole situmatation!

 

lol..damnit...the word makes sense but i guess i will be more specific...before aaron bans me for not doing so :hides:

Modification Ability:
- Exterior accessories
- Lift kits (already found a decent one)
- Motor work (always lookin for more powars! muahaha!)


Its a tossup between a B-series or just saying f-it and getting a nice ford fullsize pickup. Styling and mods being the main factors...i know about how horrible my fuel situation is and i've made peace with it.

 

Theres a bunch of Ontario guys on MazdaB Scene. http://mazdabscene.com/forums/index.php

Probably the best modification you can do is the F2T engine swap from the MX-6 GT's. My buddy put down 280 ft/lbs for torque and 203 whp with his MX-6 GT.
Or make the truck realiable and swap a rotary in it.

That would go like hell in a B!

 

nah joe..still not enuff.
i think you should build me a modern REPU 20BT

thanks for the link tho, aprreciate it.

i LOVE the b-series pickup. my only lament is that it never came in a crew cab or supercab so i can fit 4 people comfortably..or at least have the rear bangbench in it...for...well....u kno.

 

Ok..here is something a little off Topic..(Sorry,Do not mean to thread jack!0..If you can throw an MX6 Turbo engine in a B series Mazda Truck..Can you Put An MX-6 Turbo engine into an RX7?/..JOE?RPM?.you got this one?(please man!)

 

Yeah actually in Austrailia the B series trucks did have a crew cab 4 door. It was the B2600 4x4.
I want to import a RHD B2600i 4x4 from Japan for a winter beater

I'm also on the lookout still for an extended cab B2200 in good shape....haha probably not going to happen.

 

Yeah actually you could, just put the B2200 tranny in the RX-7 and bolt the F2T motor to it.

Then wire it up

 

Any engine will fit in any car with enough money.

I seen a 500 Cui Cadillac Front Wheel Drive motor in the back of a Volkswagen station-wagon looking car. THAT was crazy fast.

I have a b2200, word of advice, if you can find one with an fuel injection get it, the OEM carb's are crap on all B series Trucks.

 

you guys should see my awesome b1800.

I should have some pictures of it up in the coming few weeks. I'll make sure I post them here.

 

^ please do.

As i've been looking at it more and more..i think i will end up going and getting a ford. I really need the larger cab.

 

rangers and bseries are identical after 1992 or something.

Unless you mean an F-150?

I think the "best" fullsize in general is the GM/chevy pickups. They seem to last forever and are nice to drive.

 

would you Like to do it for me?..JOE?..LMK!Dave.(estimated Price would be nice too)PM me,Ok?..TNX.

 

Sure man, give me a few days to figure out what it would cost.

Right now I'm helping a guy twin turbo his built 5.0 V8 that he swapped into his B2200.....the guy is crazy! haha
