So I had my AWR go fast parts and some ground controls and one killer alignment going for me. In an effort to be able to drive the damn car again I gave all that up and went back to OEM... except without a rear sway bar, left my brakes in autocross mode (because thats always good) and I'm...

Its my last AWR part that I haven't been able to install... I just can't do it, can't get that harness away... haven't even tried to get to the real bolts obviously. Anyone in the Dayton or Cincinnati area that has experience getting that punk ass thing in would be more than welcome around...

Did you know you can move the adjuster slider all the way up the bar for racing? I love that damn bar. Me and Kristi have reevaluated the sway bar setup in front and back. Front bar is going back on, rear bar is so freaking stiff now its perfect on track. Potholes on city roads must now be...

My front sway bar is disconnected. *update* Been testing on and off last couple days... so far grip is way up in the front, power out is much stronger, steering sharpness has dulled out a bit. I think I'm going to leave it that way for Sundays regional race. I'll let everyone know what it...

So if you live in the Cincinnati/Dayton Ohio area and you see some kid showing off a personalized plate that says CLKWRK, kick his punk ass for me. Taking my plate cost me $6 to get replacement (which is normal, not personalized) but I'm out the $90 that it took to get that plate and i only...

I'd at least like to get a price quote... I'm hoping I can get 17x8 PR1s with a +45 offset... Who all sells Team Dynamics stuff online?

I was always under the impression that we had a torsen LSD unit... then I read two different articles... one of which is in the May Grassroots Motorsports and they go into detail about what the Conical Ring Tochigi Fuji Sangyo differential really is... Its not a torsen, its not even close. But...

Just the section going from the turbo to the midpipe... nothing else. I know Corksport hasn't released theirs yet but is anyone else making one?

We finally found a damn 23mm socket and went to work replacing the crappy dealer supplied Mobile 1 tranny fluid with GM Synchromesh. Holy crapola I have a first gear! I might actually be able to drive this thing in traffic now. Highly recommended mod for ALL mazdaspeeds. I used a long...

I think one of our CV joints is toasted. Is there any chance the dealership is going to claim it was busted due to our ground control coilovers? Thats a stretch right? Just covering my bases here.

AEM website says available... nobody has it.. did they give up? When I did a search all I found was the whole CAI vs SRI crap that has been a plague on the forums. I need an intake that will benefit my STX car... I don't care what kind it is, but its gotta be legal and I like the AEM SRI stuff.

Every weekend its something new... today's list? Front Corksport SS brake lines (did backs yesterday) New front end link adjustments Rear motor mount... *sigh* Tranny Fluid Change... gotta get rid of that horrible MObile 1... got me some Synchromesch for my birthday. Then its back to the lot...

I'm going to be switching the whole system out to ATE Superblue but I don't know the capacity and therefore... don't know how much to buy. Anybody got it?

Me and the wife went to the evolution school on Friday. Its worth the money for no other reason than getting seat time. Between the two of us our car saw over 60 runs in one day. The course is designed to frustrate a failure and teach patience. There's a really good thread on sccaforums.com...

I've been wondering if the MSP front sway is too stiff for racing. I absolutely adore my steering response and transitional speed with the stock bar and AWR endlinks, but I think it could be causing some undesireable understeer characteristics... I think we could increase front end grip with a...

http://worscca.org/autox/results/2004/2004_solo_results_PE1_PAX.html I came in 10th... even with that crappy last corner. If I wouldn't have boned that corner I would have been in the top 5 easy. Zod my car is fast. (hump)

Another sunday another first place (video)... AWR Rear Sway advice Maybe a little too stiff... my sway bar that is. On undulating surfaces (which I swore were smooth before I got my car on them) the rear end is maybe a bit too bouncy. I'm set about 6cm from the rear of the bar... about the...

In some sort of moment of clarity last night I realized why I wasn't entirely satisfied with my AWR 21.5mm Adjustable sway bar purchase... it just wasn't acting very sway barish while making HORRIBLE clunks and clanks. So what was it? I'm an idiot thats what it was. It was all endlink...

It can smell fear... I can't wait until sunday to find out how to drive it because on the streets I do not have the courage to see how it reacts at its extremes... the extremes are just to god damn far away from sane driving to be tested without a secured test space, and the secured test space...

The only way I could find to back the piston out was to turn the entire piston... I had to use a crecent wrench to do it... really painful. I looked for the allen set screw behind the piston... no such thing on the MSP I guess. Question though, I backed the piston out and it would fit over...
