No, I did have to remove the green discs for the indicators though as the green filters out the red. But it works fine on the dials themselves as I don't think the ones built in japan had the same sort of green paint applied to them, the bulbs had green gel caps. I also removed the green filter...

It looks like a nice car, hope it goes to a good home. I'm sticking with NA for mine, but then I do have a Jspec with KLZE to start from.

Was that a typo? KLZE has a 10:1 compression ratio KLDE has a 9.2:1 compression ratio The pics posted show a KLDE engine, so if you are running stock internals a boost of about 6-7psi should be fine to ensure longevity of the engine. If you want to go much higher you'll need to replace the...

Latest pics of mine, a few little tweaks here and there to improve performance. She's running around the 215-220 mark now and lot's more to do. Will be doing the suspension and brakes as soon as I can afford it. Swapped the blue lighting for all red, as I'm going for ared/silver theme...

Could you get me the brake dimensions for the following, and I don't just mean the discs and pads. I also need the spacing between the mounting holes on the hubs that the callipers fit to. I have heard that certain later model cars have the exact same fitment as the MX6, but with larger...

Am I seeing things, or is than an RX7 with RX8 style lights and bumper... or an RX8 that's been RX7'd :) EDIT... actually, looks more like an entire RX8 front end on an RX7

Old thread I know, but if the fan issue is still a problem, try adjusting the TPS as that's often the cause.

I have heard that 2007 Mazda 6 front brakes and callipers are a direct fit to the 91-97 MX6. With the advantage of being larger and more powerful. Is anyone able to offer some dimensions of the mounting brackets for the callipers so I can confirm this. If the info I have heard is correct, then...

Still got this one, sadly languishing in the garage needing a little work. Respray never happened as my brother passed away and I kinda lost interest in cars for about 6 months. She has had some work done underneath, the wheels have been sold and some cheap ones bought until I can decide what...

Very easy to mistake them... unless you are as anal as me when it comes to MX6 mazdaspeed parts. :)

This one on the otherhand.. is a real MX6 one. (translated for you)...

Using foxlingo for firefox, that spoiler is actually for an RX7.. not sure what model though. I didn't think it was an MX6 one, it leans back too much and the feet splay outwards at the tips... Very similar though, easy to confuse them.

Fingers crossed no internal damage has been done... as there is a lot of conflicting information over whether these engines are non-interference or not. Some think it may be down to a difference between KLZE and KLDE engines due to the different pistons.

I know this is an old thread... But as a pretty damn good expert on the MX6 and especially on OEM jspec parts... having actually owned 3 jspec MX6's and 2 UK MX6's.. along with owning and running the UK MX6 owners club... I just want to say the following. The Mazdaspeed rear spoiler was part of...

I'd also get a sniff test done on the coolant to see if any gasses have gotten into the coolant... Although I think you may need it running to get an accurate result. So if it was turbo'd.. has that now been removed and reverted to stock? If so, what about the ecu... as it would need to be...
