    Just about time for the Japanese to shine on the new wave of diesel engine tech. They've been a laggard compared to the Koreans.

    That would make a better option for a Mazda MX-5/Miata than a V8 swap

    i guess they could make it work on different state of tunes to able to match from the Mazda3, 6, CX-5 and even CX-9.

    we know this stock Motor comes in two output variants...150hp (40kg-m torque); 175hp (44kg-m)....

    ang lupet.....



    Three teams competed these carbon-fiber-bodied, twin-turbo, clean diesel, SKYACTIV-powered Mazda6s in GX-class competition. One of those teams was Coral Springs, FL-based SpeedSource Race Engineering (SpeedSource Fan Page), who built each car and their 400hp / 450lb-ft torque SKYACTIV-D engines.
