    My New Ride

    Not to bombard you with questions, but what size is it? How old? All wood or fiberglass hull?

    My New Ride

    (omg) My dad's a sailor, and my dad's dad was a sailor. In fact, my dad's dad's dad was a sailor as well. So, it's pretty safe to assume I've spent my life around and on sailboats. That boat is absolutely beautiful. Slips are costly, but you got an insane deal. Is the hull and keel in good shape?

    Shaking Steering Wheel at High Speeds

    Take it down a few notches Andrew. You can't re-align a car that won't hold one without replacing a bad tie-rod end can you? Hence, why I said go get it re-aligned.

    Shaking Steering Wheel at High Speeds

    Since when do tie-rods and tie-rod ends have nothing to do with the alignment? They have everything to do with it.

    Shaking Steering Wheel at High Speeds

    Misalignments can be the result of a bad tie-rod end. A tie-rod will be instable in a bad tie-rod end. This instability can cause the spindle to move freely to an extent, creating wheel whobble. You will feel this through the steering wheel because the tie-rod is connected through the tie-rod...

    My Mazdaspeed Conversion Build

    I'm so sick of dumping money into this car, I really don't want to spend the cash on engine management even though I know I have to.

    need help (brake problem)

    Technical term is lateral runout. Happens to all rotors eventually. Use this opportunity to get some quality ones, and some SS brake lines while you've got the calipers off.

    My Mazdaspeed Conversion Build

    Funny that I just glanced at this post randomly. I've been hitting bad fuel-cut at WOT for quite some time now. I haven't even touched the boost, but with my modifications I'm probably overboosting by about 3 psi at least. Enough to blow the hotpipe off of the turbo-outlet, which has happened on...

    My Mazdaspeed Conversion Build

    Yes I've got more wiring diagrams than I know what to do with. I've got the 3rd gen shop manual, a book of snap-on database wiring schematics for virtually all proteges, and the wiring appendex from the shop manual for the MSP. It's just a matter of finding them. I cannot post them here, for...
