    2018 Mazda6 non-turbo aftermarket air intake questions

    How does it drive regarding heat soak? I have a 2018 6 with CorkSports SRI, but was waiting to install it until CorkSport releases the cold air box for the 2018.

    Seeking Mazda6 Advice and Info. Seriously considering buying a low miles recent year

    If you can, look at the brand new Sport with a manual. I just picked one up last night and I absolutely love it. Comes standard with LED headlights, LED turn signals and LED reverse lights. The interior (even without leather seats) is phenomenal. I have zero complaints.

    I am seeing BIG discounts on the Mazda6, but without next years in the showroom?

    Nice! I just bought an 18 Mazda 6 today in a manual. The car is absolutely stunning and I couldnt be any happier with my purchase!

    Introducing The All-New 2014 Mazda3!

    I finally saw one on the road two days ago, equipped with front and rear LEDs, in which I had no idea what it was! With that, after getting a closer look, I realized it was the new 3. So yeah, I was definitely impressed!!

    "squeaking" or weird noise apparent while depressing gas pedal

    I wish I could record the noise, but it would definitely be pretty difficult to do so. Its kind of annoying, but its not that loud. I just noticed earlier tonight, that is is apparent when going over small bumps or whatnot. It seriously sounds like a squeaky spring, or a joint that needs to be...

    "squeaking" or weird noise apparent while depressing gas pedal

    So on my 2012 speed 3 with 2700k miles on it, a strange squeaking noise is apparent only when the clutch is engaged and the gas pedal is being depressed or let go. This only occurs when you give it gas or take your foot off of the pedal. So if I ease on the gas while the clutch is engaged, it...

    2010 MS3 shifting sounds

    I do experience the same sound......but its kind of a "doink" sound (if that makes any sense). I also just experienced a squeaking or creaking noise when the gas is depressed a little or let go. My speed 3 has only 2500 on it as well. I'm thinking rear motor mount since its such a piece. There...

    The Fujita is the loudest filter I've experienced so far.

    I just swaped out my Sure motorsports filter for the Fujita (45 dollars on Ebay, 3 inch) and its much much more louder then the Sure and mostly any other standard filter I've utilized. I did my research prior to and I was pretty sure that it would be an increase in sound, and it is. Just an FYI...

    Smoking Turbo at 1K. Possible break in period? Brand new Speed 3 with Tech

    I literally just hit 1K on my odometer in which I bought my speed 3 the middle of Oct and I just noticed some smoke occuring when I down shifted it and gave it a little gas. I am very aware about the smoking turbo thread and anything related, but at 1K? Seriously? I just put a short ram on and...

    Back to being a Speed 3 owner!

    So I just picked up a 2012 Speed 3 in Velocity Red with Touring package about 6 hours ago. I owned a Speed 6 for 3 years, ventured into an 08 Infiniti G37 Sport Coupe (which was sold to me as a lemon...and of course I didnt know it. Had to get rid of it ASAP), then finally got out of my frame...

    Might look into buying a Speed 6 with 68k for 16,400. Worth it?

    Eyedea, where in Vegas are you? I'm in Aliante and thinking about heading to Pahrump tomorrow to check out this Speed 6....in which I'm seriously thinking about buying, considering that I've only had my g37 for not even 7 months.

    Might look into buying a Speed 6 with 68k for 16,400. Worth it?

    I traded my Speed 6 in for an 08 g37 coupe last December in which its fully loaded, but I'm not 100 percent into the car. The transmission and clutch engagement is ridiculously clunky, loud and sloppy. The car also suffers from throttle lag. When the car gets to normal operating temp, almost...
