    Sold #28. I'm out.

    Thanks guys. I'm loving the Z. It's broken in now so I'm able to have some fun. NA torque is damn cool. ;) Actually, I was considering an RX-8, but in every review I saw, it always ended with, "The RX8 is a nice car, blah blah... but honestly the 350Z has our vote." And, considering I had so...

    Sold #28. I'm out.

    So I was driving my stock exhaust-leaking, whistling-wastegate, half-assed-A/C, broken-sub, broken-headunit, clunking-swaybar, crazy-fuel-curve, CEL-throwin, block-number-two MSP on Saturday night when my friend asked me to come to a dealership with him (large automall). While he was over at...

    Dealer Time

    Seems my car doesn't like being stock. Had less problems when it was modded. Can't wait to drop off my car with a nice list for them... - Fix A/C: Blows warm during the day; Re-charged it myself but still inconsistent temps - Fix wastegate: Loud whislting at idle, diagnosed as hole in...

    Dragger's Guide: Mazdaspeed Protege 1/4 Mile List

    Slicks or not, 99mph is way too high of a trap for just 7psi.

    13.55@102

    Won't be interesting on stock tires. :)

    104 MPH @ 13.16 seconds

    He trapped 106 with "400 horsepower"? Something is wrong there... you don't need more than 260whp to pull off that trap. Spinning doesn't have much effect on that speed either. Though it indicates he is capable of 12s.

    I need intructions for joep's FCD

    1) Use a vacume line and tee to tap into a boost source (another vacume line coming off the intake manifold) 2) Tap one wire to the black/green wire on the MAF sensor plug (there should be three wires on the plug, it's the middle one) 3) Ground the other wire 4) Be careful :)

    104 MPH @ 13.16 seconds

    Great job, added you to the list. I knew these 100+mph trap speeds would turn into a low 13 second run once someone got good tires! :) Get a Haltech and tune for 14psi on race gas and you'll be in the 12s on stock turbo @ 106+mph.

    HELP-Whistle sound from engine bay

    Wow, I never would've thought someone else had this problem. I have the exact same sound. It also goes away if I pinch the wastegate line. Thinking there was a tiny hole or crack, I replaced that line with a new one but the sound was still there. So, my tech friend believes it's a pinhole in the...

    My quarter mile time

    Good times for stock, but the reaction times actually indicate that you red-lighted every run. :)
