    Sway Bar Bushing Noise

    When did you receive your kit? I've tried to contact them and no response... :( Plus, their site says they are out of stock. My bushings were regreased so often (3 times a year for the past 4 years) that one of the bolt got ripped the threads out of the crossmember because it was installed...

    Boost Problems

    I noticed something else today: If you accelerate from 0-60, the car boosts pretty well. Once I leave it in gear at a steady speed, then downshifts to accelerate, then the boost guage quickly jumps to 0psi then slowly boosts up to 9psi. Feels just like the worse turbo lag ever.

    Boost Problems

    Anybody has any ideas? I'm pretty sure that the turbo is U/S; most probable the wastegate itself is tired. Sometimes, the delay at wich the turbo goes to full boosts varies. Weird.

    Boost Problems

    It started about 2 months ago. It was the end of winter so I had my OEM turbo pipes and air box, my custom cat-less downpipe with MIL eliminator + Racing Beat catback. I felt that the car was slow to respond when I was hiting the accelerator. The boost quickly jumps to 0 then progresses slowly...

    CEL with no code?

    I did a little bit of reading today in the workshop manual. I thought that in an odd way, it could of been the ABS computer that does like the new rotors and could of sent a weird code that my reader could not interpret. But I quickly ruled that one out. Then I though, maybe the reader is...

    CEL with no code?

    Hi guys, It's been a very long time since I've been here. I just changed my brakes to EBC 3DG rotors and green stuff pads. 2 days after, I get this weird CEL for no reason. I check the engine bay, no loose wires, connections are good, boost is steady, A/F is normal, no leaks, and the...

    P5 Injen CAI on MSP

    ok..... so that's what taking all the space? I tought it was to filter harmfull gases from the exhaust... :D Kidding. I know that the second piece (the one that connects to the TB) wont fit but I was referring more to the first piece. The one that holds the cone. Bigg Tim, you manage to...

    P5 Injen CAI on MSP

    I recently traded my P5 for a 03.5 MSP. Looking at it all, it seems that my INJEN CAI will fit the MSP next spring. Has anybody tried it yet?

    Well, it's off to court I go......Part II

    Real sorry for your loss. Too many time have I heard stories about guys getting bent by their ex over similar circumstances. Can you serve her on something? Some flaw in the contract? Anything?

    Intake and Exhaust Cams

    I only wish I could do the same twilightprotege. The problem is that there are no shops that I know of here that do this kind of work. People here are so afraid of loosing their waranty and @#$% that their so called mods are sumarized as "shinny pedals, shift knobs and different rims". There...

    Intake and Exhaust Cams

    Well, i'm up to it now. Since I want to remain NA, the cams are next on the list. I wouldn't go too far as re-using the old intake cam for the exhaust cuz i'm no Jesse James. Don't want to start playing with the timming unless i'm sure of what i'm doing. Thx for the suggestion tho. Guess...

    Injen CAI and Snow...

    drumsbeloud, since you're in Ontario, that means that they use a lot of calcium on the roads in winter. This being said, I would recommend you to remove the CAI in the winter. It is made out of wire mesh after all.... If its anywere like here in Mtl, just to be on the safe side. Save you the...

    Intake and Exhaust Cams

    I noticed that a lot of people weren't buying the exhaust cam. Maybe that why it's discontinued. Seems worthwhile to do, since the engine head is removed, change both. Thats only my opinion. Anyway, know about other exhaust cam? MAybe the j-spec is different too?

    Intake and Exhaust Cams

    I'm looking into buying the j-spec intake cam and mazdaspeed exhaust cam. I know a lot of you guys/girls out there already change them and I want to know if you ever had backfires after. That you have only the intake or exhaust or both, all inputs are appreciated. I assume i would be...

    Idle Problems!!!!

    Might sound stupid but maybe you could try higher octane gaz. My friend has a cam'ed and chip'ed volks. When he removed the chip to make copies, he had idleing problems and the car would backfire every now and then. When he put 'Super" instead of "regular", the problem went away. Of course...

    Maybe you didn't properly express yourself to your mom. What happen to you sucks but if she understand how important it is to you, she might reconsider. I pitty the fool who's gonna bang my car and tell me in my face that he wont pay for the scratch he did, so minute it is....

    My Black Injen CAI is on the way :)

    Very nice Bijou. I actually thought about getting the black one but ended up choosing the chrome one instead. I like it.

    J-Spec Intake Manifold

    Hummmm.... I see.... I was under the impression that it would help boost up lower end power. Fair enough, I'll stick with the original plan and change both cams. Since u seem well knowledgealbe on the FS-ZE engine, would u recommend the JSpec Intake cam and the Mazdaspeed Exhaustr cam or...
