What about the throttle cable? FC turbo, FC na, or FD?


fc na i think. double check and make sure the throttle opens 100%

im pretty sure the fc waterpump is just 3 studs and 1 long bolt. and the long bolt is only there because thats where the alternator adjustment bracket mounts.



the other bolts hold the waterpump to the housing and thats just so you can change just the waterpump without swapping out the whole housing.



oh and theyre all just regular easy to find threads, you could convert whatever to all 4 bolts or all 4 studs with a little bit of shopping...i have a feling mazda oem will be expensive, but maybe theyre stronger or something. figur eit couldnt be more then grade 8.

Mike, did you have to do alot of modifications.



I found out the hard way, I will post pics later.



I had to make some holes bigger then make a notch for the pump to fit on the side.



I even cut the pump, the found out the hard way that a no no. lol



The hard part is having the throttle body compression tube fit. Will an FD elbow work?
