Hi guys, i just hanged the phone with a "high rank" mazda contact of me, the guy in charge of all my region. I got the answer why our MSP are not ready and i know too that THEY DONT KNOW when well get them....
The reason is that there is missing parts in the turbo system : at least one of the parts is the hoses who make connection between the turbo and the intercooler... Callaway delayed the delivery of those for unknown reason.... He said that they tried to another type of hose to replace it to deliver them sooner and they decided to old shipment, because it was not safe enough. Especially in cold northern climate like canada .... He said that the issu was not as big in california and hotter hot place... there was less problems.
No good news at all so..... Parts can be there anyday, they dont know... they were willing to ship august at first....
**********************
On another subject, he asked me what i was willling to do with this car, (drive it winter and bad temperature or not? ) of course because i dont have any winter beater ...
He drove the car for a month and he warned me about the handling of the car on snow/ice/rain....
Told me that the car is very hard to steer on those condition because of the differential "locking" in turns with wheels spining... making you go "straight". Told me to put EXCELLENT winter tire on this one and not to be surprised if its undriveable....
Those impressions were taken after a few drive on water (but he also said that the fact that the tires were beaten 5k km was not helping...)
Damn.... anyway, who cares... its an old guy maybe he dont know the use of the "parking brake" ;-)
Any input on this one guys?
A+
