What have you done to your Mazda6 today?

[JDM-P5]

Thanks for all the great comments guys!

Yes, finally an owner of a Speed6...wanted one for ever and of course, the {BWC}* movement continues forward. I remember driving one & the CX7 during ZZL. Amazing!
On its 2nd owner (me) and still zooms like new. No issue w/smoking, no issues w/clutch etc. I'll have to have a MS6 owner really look it over. I mean, 90k...it has been broken in well already lol. Its just a nice daily that w/proper maintenance should be just dandy. The turbo Miata is there if the boosted track experience calls.

@Boosted & tungsten...yep, she came around to the Mazda side.
@Taylor...the sunroof is great. The leather and interior get hot...tilt it and voila...VTA haha.

My dad wanted white soo bad but he thinks the red is just as awesome.

 

[JDM-P5]

The wife likes red. Then she saw the Pearl and that's all she wrote.

 

[Tungsten6]

lol.

I really hate the fact that you already have a rolling shot. i may get one tomorrow though

 

[JDM-P5]

Thank FlyinHawaiian (Jeff) for that...he scooped me & the wifey up to get the MS6.

so ok ive been throwing around the idea of making my MS6 into a hard top 2 door convertible.. what do you guys think?? anyone wanna photoshop this picture into it.. i mean a good photoshop, no joking around.. i think it would look badass and definetly be a 1 off project..its definetly possible. its gonna take some cash and alot of hours of work.

 

[Tungsten6]

wtf lol

 

[JDM-P5]

No. Stop. Don't.

Not just for ****.

 

[Tungsten6]

Boosted. GTFO.

Washed my car this morning. Drained my occ. Put a new o ring on my dipstick since it kept blowing off and putting oil over the engine.

 

[BoostedSpd6]

why so serious (moon)??? lol my mind is always thinking of how i can make my car more unique then anyone else, it was just a thought (toilet)..

taylor how much came out of your OCC when you drained it and how many miles had it been since the last time.

did that o-ring work?.

 

[dave_PEI]

do we have a thread anywhere to discuss fuel milage? ive been tracking it for about a month now and am averaging about 7.5mpg according to my iphone fuel log app

 

[Qwik6]

Yes. The o ring made it nice and tight. I just got an assorted pack from autozone. The one that is gas and oil resistant. I hadnt drained the occ in a few months. It was maybe 4 oz. which ws dark brown. Nowhere near as much during winter months.

yikes!! thats not right,i dont believe the phone is correct.. next time you fill up reset both trip odometers and run the car from a full tank of gas and see if 7.5 is indeed the number.. if so thats extremely alarming

good deal, i had about 1 oz come out of mine after about 1500 miles, which isnt much.

about 50L of gas is getting me usually no more than 350KM

 

[BoostedSpd6]

about 50L of gas is getting me usually no more than 350KM

ok so thats 13.2 gallons and about 217 miles

thats roughly 16.4 MPG, which isnt too bad.

Grille/Gauge

Installed the long awaited SpeedLine grille. Also Aeroforce Scan Gauge . . . which is pretty damn cool.

No fitment issues and paint matches perfect.

 

[Qwik6]

So I was off today. Tomorrow and the whole weekend. I just saw my local drag stip has test and tune up til 5pm tomorrow. Should I give it a shot??

ps. Sweet gauge!
