What have you done to your Mazda6 today?

[Qwik6]

Got the washer level sensor and pump installed. Get everything back on the front and was going to get it inspected to realize one of my parking lights dont work... Put the stock grill back on the front and painted the mazda emblem black. Waiting on a trunk mat to come in at the dealer and running a wire for my amp. After that my old wheels go on and the 18;s are for sale. Then the car will once again be put up for sale.


(lurk)

^^^

just put some 15mm spacers on stock wheels

is your ride stock height?

no i have rpm street springs. it might still be up a bit from the jack.

aye, i think ur fronts are still slightly up from letting it down off teh jack.
HEYYYY welcome to the stock, fitment project club... (i.e. you & me. lol)

Exact same specs now meng, was i any inspiration or am i just being vain?
either way grats, enjoy being no longer hella sunk, and only slightly sunk, a little easier on the eye! if i repair my current wheels i may up it to 20mm spacer to try & go flush. cant decide, or i may get some hook ups with tenzo TypeM gotta find out how 18x8 +37 will sit tho, not sure that will be quite flush...?

oh yay, so last night's meet was interesting. I roll up, everyone yells at me that my foglight is out, boo.
small meet, DAMN cold, we roll out to the stance meet. 5 minutes after arriving, cops show up!!!!! first time too, this meet is chill/quiet and relaxed, but i guess they dont like our meeting on "private property"... parking lots shouldnt be considered this, so stupid. Helicopter with spotlight circled forever, as cruisers rolled up and shouted through the PA for people to disperse. lol due to this coincidental timing, a couple stance forums have openly blamed us it sounds like... our crew has never been hassled by cops, ever. and we didnt see any cops/chopper on the way there. heh, weird.

/endlongpost.

mine seem to pretty flush, what size tire do you run? i run 225/45. my summer wheels are 18x8 +48 and they are also pretty flush with a 225/45 tire. either way the stockers look a lot better now with the spacers.

 

[batou079]

heh i got same setup, that aint flush . that still slightly sunk. i do like it still tho! i want FLUUUSH. so 20mm should do it.
its still 100x better than stock sunk eh? i run 225/40. i regret it, dealer had that on, when i got new tires i stayed with same.

i want 45 again, 40 are too rough. aye your 18x8 +48 would def be more flush.
eventually ill go the correct wheel fitment, in cali i dont need winter/summer setup hehe. was looking at TypeM 18x8 +37. mebe

 

[kahmikahze]

with the spacers, did you guys have to roll your fenders?

 

[vrspeedemon]

Ok...so D2S...sorry.
Found some pics on mazda3 UK. Damn....I just need a mirror to see down the barrel...screw taking the bumper & assembly off out lol.

Hope you have hands the size of a 3 year old too, you'll need them lol

 

[Tungsten6]

Im with him^

id rather take the 15mins to get the bumper off than get pissed at my big man hands.

 

[batou079]

with the spacers, did you guys have to roll your fenders?

yes, but thats only with aftermarket lowring suspension. stock suspension, obviously wouldnt need it.
rear fender roll only.

it also depends on how your camber is, i know mine is right at about -1 which isnt' as agressive as i would like but its not bad. flush enough for me

with the spacers, did you guys have to roll your fenders?

i had mine rolled anyways cause i needed it done for my summer wheels, only the rears though.

 

[JDM-P5]

From what I've read. I just need a mirror...lol.
I saw pics of where the pin is @...should be ok.

Whuddup fake! =p

hey i'm closer to you now.. better watch it

 

[dave_PEI]

got a surprise call from the dealership saying my car was ready to be picked up! great...

took time off work to go pick it up, they got the rear diff mount covered under my MAP warranty, Great!...

had a $50 bill for diagnosing and fixing the problem causing CEL's (forget exactly what it was, and left the work order in the car) not thrilled but acceptable....

went to the owners office to voice my concerns of finding my car unlocked sitting out on the lot all last weekend... not even a real sincere apology let alone an attempt to satisfy me....

Finally time to get in the car and go back to work, turn ignition on, start car, CEL still on.... returned keys to service counter, got back in my toyota, drove away

/end rant

Well, looky looky... its that fake ms6 owner! (just goin along with the crowd!) haha. How you been man?! glad to hear the move went well as well as all the sales... so far i dont think we have heard from your MS6 owner yet. But i hope we do!! We wanna see that car stay in the family damnit! Oh yay, and we love you too... wait, WHAT?! LOL!!!

So about the ISF, i hate you. we can trade yes? ill drive up there just for the swap... and again grats i hope you are enjoying the HELL out of it! 2nd, check my CD page link in my sig, changed a couple things since you last saw her pics (lol sounds diirrrty).

and thanks on the congrats, i think... Yay taylor still hangs around, like Steve we put up with their fake MS6 status. hehe... so we'll let you stick around too!! anywhoo, glad you can stick around, now get to work on getting the owner of your MS6 to get ON here!

it also depends on how your camber is, i know mine is right at about -1 which isnt' as agressive as i would like but its not bad. flush enough for me

i had mine rolled anyways cause i needed it done for my summer wheels, only the rears though.

aye, well fronts only get natural camber from lowring... which is about -1 camber. Backs have slight adjustments, mine sits at -1.6 in the rears.
I needa get the adjustable ball joints, so i can adjust once i get coils & wider wheels/more offset. i cant wait!
