    No its just the downpipe that elimanates the first cat. It will bolt to the stock cat or any aftermarket cat/midpipe.

    I got a used corksport downpipe with about 3K miles on it that I could make you a real good deal on. Send me a PM with an offer if you are interested.

    blown motor

    I had this happen recently (at an even lower speed of 8MPH pulling out of my driveway) and I contacted Ken at Protege Garage. He found a motor for me and it sent to me for 3500 with 30K on it. Full motor, turbo, intercooler and all. I used a 6 motor and there were a few small difference on...

    Help with Clutch not disengaging

    I did the swap. I bought a motor out of a wrecked speed 6 so the clutch and flywheel was never disconnected from the crankshaft, I just bolted my transmission up. I did discover that it shifts perfectly when the car is not running, then if I put it in gear then the car will drive fine. The...

    Help with Clutch not disengaging

    Are the Speed 3 and Speed 6 OEM clutch and flywheel the same? I think the clutch I used ended up being from a speed 6. If they are not the same then that might be my problem.

    Help with Clutch not disengaging

    Yeah I am going to try and bleed it again tonight, yesterday was not good we got 6" of rain so it was a soaker. I think I am going to get one of those vacuum pumps that sucks the air out and try that. Seems stupid that they would design a clutch system with no adjustment on it.

    Help with Clutch not disengaging

    I recently replaced my engine and upon completion I went to take the car for a test drive and could not. When I move the shifter into gear with the car running and clutch pedal to the floor it will not go unless you force it. The car begins to creep forward as soon as the shifter moves forward...

    WTB: New or used short block in running condition

    Ken contacted me and I will probably get a motor from him. I am looking for a stock block/engine so I can drop it in, and trade the god forsaken thing in on something else. If the engine blows in 20,000 miles I have no faith for long term reliability and don't want to spend 7,000 dollars...

    WTB: New or used short block in running condition

    As the title says I am looking for a new or used short block as my car recently blew up and after many hours of fighting with Mazda I have been told to bite the big one. I scrapped together some funds and have cash in hand, can pay for shipping, but would pick it up even if it is a few hours...

    Little Help-Car Runs Like crap after winter

    Update- Replaced the solenoid but the damage had been done already. i am pretty sure that the boost spikes bent one the rods which decided to come through the engine on a 12 mph shift to second right after pulling out of my driveway with no boost. Lets hope Mazda doesn't tell me to shove it...

    Thanks, I will probably go this route and see if it fixes the problem.

    Little Help-Car Runs Like crap after winter

    Will do, I also have another boost controller I can try. is there any reason why it would work with my Halman controller for 8 months then just stop working?
