    Quick Thread on Oil... again yes.

    I leave 4 oz left in the sixth bottle and that puts it exactly at the full line and stays there until the next oil change. I went almost 6,000 miles on my last oil change and it didn't burn a drop.

    Another Speed bites the dust.

    Maybe your fuel pump took a crap? Doesnt' sound like anything too serious that warranty wouldn't take care of. I was expecting you to say your motor blew.

    I'm moving back to Beaumont at the end of Sep. I'm getting out of the Navy. My car has never used oil, the level remains rock solid between changes. San Diego is known for it's mild climate though.

    Which kind of oil and what intervals and question about SRI

    I use Royal Purple 5W30. I change my oil every 3000 miles, actually I always change it before so I don't go over. It's a little over the top, but I love my car, and if I have learned anything from being a helicopter mechanic it's that preventative maintenance is the key to keep something...

    is it true stock bpv goes bad after 20k+ miles?

    The OP didn't ask if an aftermarket BPV holds boost better than the stocker. I know the aftermarket ones hold boost better. He asked if the stocker goes bad and needs to be changed at 20K. The answer to that question is no. Mine holds boost the same as it did when it was brand new.

    Where are the Best Mazda Dealerships in San Diego, Ca.

    I bought my car and have had some service done at John Hine in San Diego. I have a CPE CAI, SUMM, and TXS Racepipe and they haven't given me any problems, even when I had the most recent reflash performed.

    This thread is exactly why I hate this forum more every time I visit. Everyone is just a bunch of squabbling females. I love the "other" site much better and I hope all of you stay away so youd don't ruin it for all of us over there.

    Ordered new tires!

    I received my tires today. They are much beefier than the stockers. I won't be able to get them installed until Saturday which sucks but I'll have stock vs. Dunlop pics for you all and try to get a pic of the fender clearance ( if any... lol ).

    Ordered new tires!

    Just ordered a set of Dunlop Direzza Sport Z1 Star Spec tires from tirerack.com. I went with 235/40/18 to go on my Rota Torques. They should be in Monday or Tuesday but won't go on until next Saturday because I work nights. I'll take pics when the tires come in and when I get them installed.

    Fender roller

    You also have to pay shipping and insurance both ways and have to wait for the tool to show up. I can meet someone anywhere in the San Diego area which eliminates long wait times and any deposit ($250 from that site) for the tool.

    Fender roller

    I am about to buy some Dunlop Direzza Sport Z1 Star Spec's in 235/40/18 and will need to roll my rear fenders. I am considering buying a fender rolling tool from tire rack to roll the fenders myself, an was wondering if any of the San Diego area MS3 owners were wanting to roll their fenders...
