Tap a vehicle to see every unit we have for it. Trim, transmission and emissions equipment vary within a model year — text us your VIN and we will confirm before you order.
Contents vary unit to unit — the photos and description on this page show what this listing type ships with. Anything missing you need, ask before you order.
Units are strapped to a pallet and crated. Have a forklift or a way to unload at the receiving end, or choose liftgate service. Questions on a quote before checkout? Text (469) 570-4113 with your zip.
Parts most people replace while the engine is out — brand new, in original manufacturer packaging. Want fitment confirmed against your build first? Call or text (469) 570-4113

What's included
Anything else visible in the photos is included unless noted otherwise.
What you'll receive
We stock multiple examples of most engines, and the unit photographed is one of them. If this particular engine has sold we'll match you to another in the same condition and mileage range. Before anything ships we send you photographs and the serial number of the actual engine you're getting — you approve it first.
Fitment
Interchanges across MazdaSpeed 3, CX-7 and CX-9 applications; confirm fitment with your mechanic before ordering. In some applications it installs as a long block with your original external accessories transferred over. Our team is glad to help you check compatibility.
Warranty & returns
This is a performance engine and it carries our 30-day performance-engine warranty and a 30-day return window, not the 90-day start-up warranty that applies to like-for-like replacement engines. Full terms at jdm-online.com/pages/warranty.
