If going with a larger turbo prior to building the motor, I'm assuming it would be safe to just run straight off the wastegate? That should show around 10 psi and make close to the power of the stocker at more or is my logic flawed. Pretty much running bolt ons with high flow pump so would...

I was driving my beloved speed and after arriving at the house and being to compulsive person that I am I decided to check my oil. It was hardly showing on the dipstick right at the min. line. I let it sit overnight and checked it again and the same result with it barely showing on the stick...

I'm assuiming it was boost cut, no cel or anything. Runs and drives fine just kinda startled me at first. Anybody have any different ideas?

Saw a couple over the past week or so, just wondering if any of them are on here. In college station, tx. Assuming that they are probly just in town for a driving event in the speedway.

07 speed 3 w/ 22k miles. cold air, top mount, tbe, 1step colder plugs. Driving home I missed a shift going to 3rd, didn't grind or anything just didn't want to go in, happened once before. I get to the house and set my e-brake to let the car idle for a moment and heard a very strange...

They are supposedly a new kind of plug. There is an article about them in this months issue of moddified mag, claiming to have gained 10.4whp out of a 350z with only an intake for other mods. I usually disclaim adds for fancy spark plugs but it's not an add for them, moddified tested them and...

Anyone from here going? Just hoping to see some other mazdas and mazdaspeeders.

It's the motor out of the cougar xr-2 and not sure what mazda it came in. Doing a festiva motor swap project and that's like the easiest motor to use.

Just wondering if anyone had a tried and tested method for cleaning the top mount. I have the ets and live on a very dusty road, need to clean both that and my cai filter probly every 6 months or so. Thanks for any helpfull replies in advance.

To start this has nothing to do with cars really, just looking for opinions. I have a recently offered opportunity to work at a car dealership as a salesman. I would love to do it but the delima is I've worked at McDonalds for going on 7 years, sadly making only a whopping 8.30 and hour as a...

I was on the way home from a delightful dinner with my fiance's dad<sarcasm. doing about 60 on the highway and noticed a 350z and wanted to catch up to see if he would play. Instead of downshifting, I just put my foot down in 5th, it kinda sounded like it wanted to go but didn't for a second...

I get to my house tonight and in the headlights I see steam/smoke and smell something that just really stinks. I pop my hood and notice my coolant thing is completely empty and there is coolant splashed all over the engine bay, I haven't even really gotten on the car since the day my motor...

I have the ets top mount on my car and also the awr 88 dr rear mount but when I took the car for a test drive after completing the work I heard a noise and noticed when I popped the hood that the intercooler is ever so barely rubbing the back of the intercooler "shroud" when I get on it and...

I was going maybe 15mph in first in traffic and heard a pop and it seemed like I was running over feflectors in the road, then I popped my hood to see my whole motor fell forward. Mazda then refuses me a rental car and is talking about making me pay for it! They said maybe I was abusing the...

I know that there isn't one in production or even the R&D stage right now, but I think anyone trying to drag this car should have one. Does anyone know if one will even fit? If any companies were to give it a go I would drive anywhere reasonably close for test fitment in a heartbeat.

I was at the track and got in 3 passes. My best pass included insane wheel hop, nasty 2.3x 60 ft., and a 9.43 at 80.43 mph. And a broken motor mount sadly ending my night early.

I remember reading somewhere(not on here) that someone makes a brake pad that produces less brake dust than normal pads. Just wondering if anyone knows where to get these cause brake dust really owns my MS3.

http://www.mazdas247.com/forum/showthread.php?p=2875539&posted=1#post2875539 People really like to argue thier opinions on how a race turns out on pure numbers on paper like info, and it drives me nuts.

So I'm at work last night and some guy in a auto stock C5 vette wants to know who's MS3 is sitting in front of the store, the employee comes and gets me and the guy says he wants to run. We take off from a 20 roll with me in second gear to keep from spinning unnecessarily and as soon as the...

Has anyone heard anything about a lighter alternative to our stock hood even being worked on, the only thing I've even found that has to do with the apperance of the car being offered is the front bumper and grill that corksport has on their site.
