    What have you done to your MSP today?

    So far I seem good, but I will definitely keep this in mind if I notice it again, or if it really isn't gone and I'm just kidding myself that it has... Thanks for the head's up. Would have never in a million years thought about the seat belt releases or associated parts doing this.

    What have you done to your MSP today?

    Finally had enough of the buzz / rattle coming from my back deck after motor mount inserts and a new sub were installed. I got back there and stuffed every hole and crevice and anything that looked, acted, ever thought about moving, with poly-fill. Buzzy rattle was banished.

    What have you done to your MSP today?

    Just warmed it up and then shut it down... I don't commute, so it might be 3-4 between actually driving the car. However Sunday I did a Meg's Wash and Wax anywhere clean up on the exterior to get rid of the black haze that was growing steadily darker. I hate those black streaks from the door...

    Can anyone recommend a Boost Controller?

    I'm using the Hallman Pro RX on both my MSP and MSM. I've found them to be dead nuts reliable, especially for a <$100 piece.

    Post recent pictures of your Mazda!

    Not really new, just don't post. I'm over on the local Atlanta forum as well. Pretty much the same name. I might have to head down to Turner and check things out.

    Post recent pictures of your Mazda!

    New 6ULs in 15x8, rolling on some slightly stretched Direzza D101... also tinted the fogs at the same time.

    Help! Cracked exhaust manifold.

    Okay, totally not saying this is a good option. Just asking to see if anyone has had any contact with the eBay manifolds that pop up? Specifically the OBX?

    What have you done to your MSP today?

    Just ordered brakes and rotors from ProParts. Can't wait for new unrusty rotors to go on the car.

    What have you done to your MSP today?

    Turbo oil feed line gaskets replaced and an oil change... much needed oil change actually. First time on replacing the gaskets, it wasn't as hard as I imagined.

    What have you done to your MSP today?

    Wrapping my mind around the cigar throttle body thing... while doing the test, the engine is NOT running, correct? If it were, the glove would be sucked into the TB and not puffed out like shown in the pictures...

    VICS Solenoid Replacement

    They also came on 1.8 miatas, and I happen to get my last batch off a Mazda MPV minivan. You can easily test them with some gator clips and a 9v battery. Touch the leads to the battery and you should hear a nice "click". If no click, or very sluggish click, then no bueno. These can be...

    VICS Solenoid Replacement

    This should be your solenoid you are looking for... It is a pretty common part on Mazdas, but gonna be mad expensive if you go through the dealership and doesn't exist in local auto parts stores as far as I can tell. Your local pull-a-part would be cheapest, but you can get them from Parts...

    Meguiar's White Wax????

    I haven't used it, my white car phase died a few years back. However, I did read this on a detailer forum. Meg white is more of a cleaner wax with a bit more cleaners than the normal cleaner wax offered. The black on the other had, is formulated with more polishing agents (abrasives, blah...

    What have you done to your MSP today?

    The PF-01s look good on your MSP. I've got a set in 16" on my Black Mica MSM. Had to put some 20mm spacers on them, but that was my own fault for not really thinking about the offset when I ordered them.

    VICS solenoid broken, what does that mean?

    I recently had one of these go bad on my MSP. Parts Group in Alabama had some good prices on them, but I ended up hitting up the local pull-a-part. Found 3 on an old MPV and walked out for $10. Take some gator clipped wires and a 9 volt to check to make sure the solenoids still give a solid...
