for awd you'd have to convert so many things, it'd cost a fortune.

you do realize that mazda 6 is a tad bigger than mazda 3.

Also 5 cylinders run much smoother than 4

what would be so hard, i have seen the undercarage, with a little mods, it should fit, the rear axle would have to be modified, and the driveshaft would be modified too

i do have to admit. i am used to working on american muscle and jeep skyjeckers, so maybe the conversion would be a biatch

ita bitch... dont fuck with it man. The cars are too new if you want awd you should have bought awd. These cars are no where near american muscle trannies. Ive dropped in serveral trannies. Its not easy.

hypothetically speaking 5 cylinders should be smoother than 4...
