For Sale. BRAND NEW in the box never installed Manifold, EGR, and gaskets as pictured. Purchased in 2007 for a project that never happened and of course now car is gone. Was for a mazdaspeed protege with FS motor, but also fits, I think, any FS engine. Improved flow over stock IM. Respond here...
The pro is the first car I've had with the thermostat on the lower hose. Does coolant flow UP through the rad? Should the lower rad hose be hotter or colder than the upper?
is there anything out there that takes sender signals and converts them into an output that will show up on an in dash screen? Either a separate unit or *shudder* laptop software? If I'm forced to, it might end up being cheaper to build a carputer. In all my travels I've never seen anything like...
As far as i know, there are 2 schools of thought on where to properly place a BOV or recirculating valve.
1) is within 14" from the throttle body. The reason for this is to allow the reverse pressure wave coming from the TB to be released sooner, and allow air that is still being pushed by the...
For the life of me I can't remember the name of the motor. It was designed way back in time, there is a website explaining how the thing works and why it's so great. Someone here had an animated gif of how the motor functions. I'm looking for the name of the motor.
Does anyone know what I'm...

why changing colours doesn't work
There has been a lot of discussion on the TOProtege forums about changing the cluster colours. I was fortunate enough to pick up a spare cluster for a future project, and figured I might as well dissect it and really find out why changing colours is so tough...
Is anyone else running this?
Last weekend at the track is just stopped working. It turned on fine, but asked which vehicle it was supposed to be reading. When I selected Honda (there is no Mazda setting on it - never has been) like it was running on before, nothing. So I reset it, it went into...
Just found a replacment console panel for mouting a DIN deck in the mazda 6s: http://www.installer-data.com/item/display_item.php?it=99-7503
Hope someone can make use of this. .. I have no association in any with the website and have never ordered from them...
Went to the strip today (Cayuga). Had a great time.... and ran a pretty good time. timeslips + pics can be found here.
Main mods: 3" downpipe back, hardpipes, SRI with heat shield, and EBC set to 8.5 psi...
(mods, please move to whever this should be)
I lack the funds for a wideband. I don't know what duty cycle my injectors are running at. I don't have money to replace my motor.
But I did wire in a cool gauge that tells me % of max airflow through the MAF. Assuming that .9V is about 15% airflow, and knowing that 5V is the max value that the...
So, this is my new upholstery! I chose fabric for the seats and backs for best grip, suede-ish fabric to match the doors on some accent areas, and leather for some of the inserts, headrests, and part of the seat backs. (Those are Sparco Torino's under there, by the way) The work was done by...
Well I did it. I took a hacksaw to my CAI, to make a SRI for winter.
On Sunday, I made a SRI from the injen CAI. I don't have plans to go back to a CAI in the spring so I took out the hacksaw. I cut about 3" off the pipe that connects to the turbo at the MAF side. I took off the flange (about...
Just picked this up used, and need a little help with the actual wiring. As you can see from the pics, I need to know the order of wires coming from the connector - is it red, black, blue, white, or red, black, white, blue?
Thanks in advance.
I'm definitely going to get new motor mounts front and rear. I've been in a car with the AWR (I think) MT front and rear. It drove amazing, but was a bit rough at idle, and since I spend time in rush hour, it may be too rough.
To whoever has the ATs or MTs, do you like them? Do you wish you'd...
Well here's a few pictures of the Greddy Oil Filter Block Adaptor (http://www.greddy.com/products/products.asp?catidx=5&catname=Oil%20Related&prodtype=22&prodtypename=Oil%20Filter%20Block%20Adapter) I got from JRP (www.jrponline.com). Total cost was about $120 CDN after tax. I ran into a few...
I thought I had my problem solved. but I guess not. I am installing 2 oil gauges and thought I'd be slick and put in the Greddy Oil Filter Block Adaptor (http://www.greddy.com/products/products.asp?catidx=5&catname=Oil%20Related&prodtype=22&prodtypename=Oil%20Filter%20Block%20Adapter). My gauge...
Pics aren't too clear, but gauges, from left to right, are Oil Temp, Oil Pressure, Fuel Pressure. Fuel is hooked up, Oils aren't because I don't have the Greddy Oil Filter Block Adaptor yet...
