What have you done to your Mazda6 today?

[BoostedSpd6]

Why does everyone get shorty antennas?? Do they look that much better lol ?

i had a shorty antenna, way better then the stock one as far as looks go.. reception didnt fall much at all i was still able to pick up the boston stations in much of my area.. now i have the shark fin and love it better then the shorty, reception is just the same and its a much cleaner look IMHO.

Got a new Nextmod grille to replace the busted one. Just does not fit.

Good thing they are such good guys!
I am going to warehouse on Monday and they are going to fix me up.

Great customer service.

Rallyarmor mud flaps came in the mail today lol so i washed my car and did the most important task of all. PUT ON THE STICKERS! i cant still for the life of me figure out how i am going to mount these bitches.

if i can get away with not drilling holes i would love to, but i dont know how i would do that.

 

[Qwik6]

You have to drill holes to mount these. There is no getting around that. Especially on the rear. The fonts you can use 2 of the existing holes to mount them but you still need to add about 3 more. I believe I used 5 screws on each one on the front and about 4 on the rear. Sold them a few weeks ago with templates.

Cleaned my car up today. Shined up the tires and clean the interior and windows. No one is gonna catch me riding dirty.

Changed my oil and investigated why my fog light was out. Turns out that the igniter and ballast somehow fell out and are nowhere to be found on my drivers side fog light. The plugs are ripped out from the ballast side and gone. Looks like I gotta order a new set of bulbs and ballasts now.

Yeah no s***. I'm gonna have to find a new location for the ballasts, and definitely secure them better the next time around.

 

[supracelica32]

finally finished my car this weekend!

I screwed the ballasts to a flex metal strip with holes and screwed the metal strips to the bumper support. No issues in allmost a yr with the HID fogs.

I think that's what I'm going to end up doing this time. I'm not letting anything get away like last time. Still can't believe it fell through the small hole in the splash guard...

 

[04gixx6]

Changed oil (with my sons help), rotated tires, adjusted e-brake, and played with the new dashhawk.

You end up making it to the meet today?

Put the airbox silencer back in on Friday, I decided to check the filter while it was raining and saw that it was wet.. Didn't like that at all, car ran good on my 4 hour trip south. Got to enjoy 60 degree weather and some nice scenery! First time driving it in warm temps and it didn't cut out once, so I do think the cold weather wreaks havoc with the computer.

 

[dave_PEI]

put on the shorty antena... deffinatly gonna have to order a sharkfin

 

[coyfish]

You guys think a different color sharkfin would look cool? Or just ricer .

Rice. Stick with the body color man.

 

[BoostedSpd6]

yeah... stay with your stock color.

 

[coyfish]

Want to buy one but 80 bucks !!

 

[supracelica32]

Want to buy one but 80 bucks !!

it's worth buying new! believe me. i bought one used and trying to peel off the tape already on it absolutely sucks!

 

[tunersteve]

Wait until they do a GB, it's not a huge thing. They'll be $65 instead. I picked up a used one for $45 and it was cleaned and ready to go, $7 for a new adhesive gasket from VG, and it works great.

After sliding into traffic, I ordered my LM-22s today. Should be here and installed by the end of the week. Snow will now be my b****.

 

[Qwik6]

I have mine I am wanted to sell.

On a side note. After changing my map yesterday and changined the throttle tables to 1:1 and even all the way up to 100. I like it and I hate it. If your foot just breathes on the pedal the rpm jumps to over 2 grand so you have to be very careful. Also when driving in any gear when you slow down a little the car bucks back becuase the throttle cuts out so easily. its hard to explain.

i did that to one of my maps.. and then i played around with it alittle bit because it was so touchy, in traffic it sucks ass.. i got it too work really well, took me about a week or so of changing the numbers, testing, changing again and so on to get it right, or get it how i like it.

my setup: 1st gear no changes, 2nd gear its 1:1 after 40% and then its 1:1 through gears 3-6 after 22% but before that 22% i changed the numbers on each by 0.5 + on each gear
