    New Rims. Opinions please.

    I have the same wheels (different color) as my winter wheels. 17x7 +42 215/50 Blizzaks for the snow. Here's a couple of pics for reference;

    Anybody have gaps on their bumpers?

    I just notice mine last week. It had to have happened recently. Not sure if there is a fix or not.

    cdfp upgrade

    so the CDFP alone provides power all the way to redline? I thought I had seen dynos with people with the CDFP with power still falling off?

    Dashhawk

    If you do the Cobb AP, the dashhawk will accurately measure boost since there is no tricking the ECU. Mine reads 17-18psi everyday!!

    Bad News....Need to replace windshield on GT

    I just called my Mazda service department today regarding this issue. Despite what some have said on other forums, the sensors are in fact separate from the windshield. In other words, there is no difference between getting a windshield replaced on a non-GT than a GT. Also, as far as...

    tranny noise?

    I would check your transmission mount bolt, even if you have had the recall done. I started noticing additional tranny noise when shifting and something told me to check that bolt. The bolt was so loose, that at first I thought it was stripped. Car is so much smoother and quieter now...

    I hate my Cobb rear sway bar

    Along with what the previous post said, make sure to tighten the bolts when the car is on the ground with the suspension compressed. Otherwise, it will cause unwanted noise. My sway bar bolts come loose even 2 months or so with the stock bar. I haven't used any locktite (probably will once...

    Heard this through a dealer grape vine and now..MS CAI..No more!

    I would put the Cobb SRI on and not worry about it. There is really no reason why Cobb's intake would cause them to void your warranty. Unless you installed it incorrectly (its incredibly easy). By law they can not void your warranty on the entire car. They obviously won't cover anything...

    ECU reflash at Mazda

    I experienced the same thing after getting the refresh myself. Power used to fall off at 5800, now it is about 6100. It also doesn't fall off quite as abruptly.

    MS cai vs SRI

    Get the Cobb SRI or find the a MS CAI used for alot less than $350. I just switched my MS CAI to the Cobb SRI last night and the difference between them is very minor. Cobb just seems to be a bit louder.

    Rear Suspension Creaking

    I got some noise from the rear after installing my springs. Re-checked and tightened all the sway bar bolts again and the noise went away. These bolts seem to have a habit of working themselves loose over time.

    HELP!!!Stuck withCobb spring install

    Yes, the impact wrench would work as well. I am assuming, like myself, he does not have access to the tools that would make this install simpler.

    HELP!!!Stuck withCobb spring install

    I ran into the same issue myself. It is annoying, but you will have to put the strut assembly back into the car and attach at least 2 of the 3 bolts up top (doesn't have to be all that tight). Then bust the bolt loose that you are having the issues with. Be very careful not to undo it...
