Ive checked reputable places that were all carrying these a year ago and now it appears they are all on backorder? Would love to order another engine for a future project and wasn't trying to piece together everything one by one.

Any leads on one of those Mazda crate swaps would be awesome, not trying to buy an ebay engine that ends up needing a whole rotating assembly etc.

94 , hks t51r, haltech 2500, fuel system with hellcat pump ign1as etc, mazdaspeed rear, lots of fun stuff, backyard bridgeport. Aiming for that 400 sweet spot with an aggressive port possibly even going peripheral in the new build just to sound like a pure demon.

 

JP3 appears to have a few new arrivals in stock.

 

We have one available....pick-up or will install

 

Current ETA is 12/26/23 if you ordered one today.

Mazda USA is not stocking these, they are all special order, right now

 

400 can easily be obtained on a stock engine with 14 psi on an ok sized turbo. If you're doing the port just for the sound (which is perfectly fine) then forego a hp goal. You will end up with a car that doesn't make sense if your target is that low and that's what you're willing to do.

To address your concern.... motors for prices that make sense come with the wait time they come with and that's just how things are now. If your desire to have an engine NOW outweighs your concern for its cost then you have options, otherwise we all just have to stand in line and wait our turn

 

okay, wasnt expecting this many replies, @tomsn16 Where are you located? I want it!

 

jp3 = ?
unfamiliar with this shop friend, care to share a link?

 

You have a store link? where are you located? freight to my area should be cheaper we can use business or residential drop off. (estimating around 500ish )

 

Mazdacomp will not even sell one right now, all sales are restricted as they are about to have a massive price increase

 

I have yet to receive mine that was order April this year.

They make quite a few nifty items for the FD as well.

 

I cant seem to find them on the site ^, a member posted and pmed me that they had one, but hasn't responded to my message yet , if its a fresh core from mazda or similar ,would assume the seller here to have some receipts or rep. <3

cash on hand ready to buy, willing to spend around 6k. just bought new sakebomb oil coolers and some other fancy additions for the new build ^.^

 

Mazdatrix and Pineapple racing have new FD engines (kegs) in stock.

 

ty, i will call pineapple tomorrow

 

This thread would not be complete without mentioning Ray Crowe for Mazda engines and all OEM parts.
I think he's in VA or is it DE...

 

They posted up on facebook over the weekend that they got some in. You'd need to reach out to them directly about them as it's probably not something they normally stock.

 

Ray is in Woodbridge, Virginia, but his shipping hub is in New Castle, DE if I remember correctly.

 

Any idea what the new price will be?

 

edit: apparently they don’t list a phone number

.

 

Malloy Mazda Woodbridge, VA has closed! Don't know what has happened to Ray Crowe

 

Malloy Mazda last updated their FB page in 2015, so they may have closed several years ago.

 

Malloy Mazda did close. Ray retained his position as a parts dealer for Mazda though. He is currently working, from Woodbridge, through a different dealership (I believe it's Nucar, or something like that) which is based out of Delaware.

Ray's email and phone number remain the same. I just ordered a non-sunroof roof skin from him in the spring.

 

^This is all correct. Ray deals his Mazda parts thru NuCar in New Castle, DE. It's a big GM/Mazda/Hyundai/others(?) dealership there. BTW, if you live local enough to NuCar to pick up your parts in person, tell Ray when you order that you want to pick them up - you'll skip the shipping charges, and DE is a zero sales tax state, so no tax either. Big savings especially if you're buying a 13B-REW crate motor or large/expensive to ship parts!

 

Man I wish I can buy it without shipping and tax! That would be $4200 for the engine.

 

This talk of mr crowe makes him seem like an anomaly, if he has it this good why is he not marketing like a wild hog here?

Anyone have a contact for mr crowe?

Cheaper is always welcome, provided its the same quality/expectancy (ill be popping this keg open and modding it, but I still want all new oem)

Otherwise, I have talked to a member here, tomsn , ill likely grab his swap.
