NICE RING, DRIZ HUR... THE ORANGE IS MY b****

oops 1HP = 746W well there is the notion of a metric HP and a boiler HP and others but they are not widely used or accepted. When someone publishes a horse power they mean 745.700 Watts

Nicely put.

No foot-pounds and pound-feet are not different. Yes the words are ordered differently but that is it. They are the same thing. It is what we call a moment. A force (lb) multiplied by a distance (feet) in this case is a moment. An increase in moment represents a larger rotational force...

Is there a factory guide/manual out for the Mazda 3? Or do these things take a while to get made and published? I would like something with good detail including wiring diagroms if possible. Just to learn a little bit more about my car. cheers

Dude have some patience and wait for your car this is a serious investment. Like holy cow pick the one you want and the dealer will get it for you. Talk to 10 dealers if you have to. Send out a mass email or call them. No need to go to the dealership. Like pick your car and call for a...

Goodyear definitely cut them a better price. trust me some young project engineer spent a long time trying to get the best tire within the price budget set by some Mazda director of engineering. Obviously the Pilots weren't it. Maybe we should be bitching at Michilin for not having the...

The profession needs to be changed so that more education is a prerequisite. Higher standards all around are needed.

Is it worth it? First of all is the clear bra worth it? Probably aorund $1000 CDN I am assuming or close to installed. I won't be doing the installation myself because well I suck at detail work. Is the 3M version better than other versions available? Anyone have a particular type they like...

mmmmm orange so so so nice straight up The ORANGE is pimp.

Will I have warranty problems if I install a CAI on my Mazda 3? I live in Ontario Canada and I don't know how the dealer react to engine mods. Please help. cheers

Acura is a luxury brand but leaves the luxury out of the RSX. I like the car... a lot. But luxury would imply an expensive well thought out interior. And Acura failed at this with the RSX. All other models have georgous interiors from what I have seen.

Now if we were to compare the RSX non-Type S and the Mazda 3 GT then we would have something to talk about. And yes I would take the Mazda 3 (I did). But when we add 40HP and talk about the 200HP RSX Type S I gotta take the speed. The handling felt great and it was an amazing ride. Saying...

Okay so I live in southern Ontario where rust is quite inevitable on a vehicle. But I would like to know what is the best way to prevent or slow the process. I have heard as far as spray coatings go Krown has the best at approx $90 CDN per year. But what I am really interested in is how the...

Thanks man that is what I thought but I wasn't certain. Well actually I just found it so hard to believe and I had to ask the question. The lack of side air bags pisses me off and I would like the xenons but can live without them. I don't understand who at mazda canada makes these...
