Hi Forum Members.

I've recently 'upgraded' from a Mercedes Benz W210 E55 AMG to a 2006 Mazda Verisa...long story...

It's a great wee wagon and I've had a lot of fun doing a bit of maintenance and repair work on it, including apparently usual issues like the EGR valve clogging and a few small electrical issues, but it's a strong wee vehicle, which I'm enjoying.

I've recently installed a throttle controller, GAN performance chip and a more performance focussed exhaust system, which have all combined to add a little more 'zoom zoom' to the Roller Skate (RLRSKT), but I have a question...

Is there a compatible gearbox from another Mazda model that will easily fit to the Verisa engine (ZY-VE)? Would consider a manual swap, but would be okay with another automatic unit too. I'm finding the gearing ratio is a bit too short at the top end with current cogs, which makes for a high-revving, long trip over distance.

Any advice and thoughts appreciated. Thanks.

Versia Life Welcome to the forum.

 

Thanks Callisto.

I've enjoyed reading through some of the threads...a few classics in the mix.

 

I would think a manual swap from a Mazda2 would be possible.

 

I was thinking the same.

Makes sense. I understand the power plants are the same, but the box has and extra cog...
