Soul Red Sunday!!!

Welcome to the CX5 party! Those TSWs you had would have looked great on the CX5.

I have the JBR RSB and it really improved the cornering and handling of the car. Best bang for the buck. I initially wrote about it here: http://www.mazdas247.com/forum/showpost.php?p=6322474

It makes oil changes pretty quick and simple, not to mention clean. Mazda CX-5, 2.5L pg 1178 in the engine section 0W 20 OEM Oil Filter PE01-14-302A Oil and oil filter replacement: 4.5 L (4.8 US qt, 4.0 Imp qt) Torque: Oil pan drain plug: 23—30 ftlbf Oil filter: 9 -12 ft lbs Edit: for...

Thanks! Nice! That FWD will get you to some crazy places. Imagine if I had AWD. Hahaha. They're Rays RE30s.

Took mine camping in Yosemite, Wawona, and a place outside of Sequoia National Park.

That mount looks good. Where'd you get it from? As for the syncing, have you tried shutting it off from the iPhone's BT settings menu? I have mine set to only sync my favorites and it pairs pretty quickly.

I went with 30% and it's a pretty close match to the rears. It's slightly lighter, but not enough for me to care/notice. I paid $60 to have both fronts done.

Those look great. I'm surprise they weren't plug and play. Did they come with alligator clips for splicing into the brake line, or did you have to cut and wider them?

I like the Tiffany blue. It's almost Tron like. Also dig that you did it your MS3 too.

You're not going to get the dip the lay down smoothly over such a large surface with the rattle cans. You need a proper spray guy for that. My buddy used the cans on his MS3 roof and it looked like a gang had just tagged it up with wavy lines. Hahaha. Why not vinyl wrap it?

I have Rokblokz Mud flaps on my CX5. I like them better than the Rally Armor UR Mud flaps I have on my MS3. The Rokblokz are more ridgid and don't flap around as much when driving like the rally armor.

I got a $100 gift card to use at Mazda and I went with the OEM window visors. I like leaving them cracked on a hot day or driving with the windows slightly open.

Was it only for window tint or did they tack it on with other charges? What's your front tint at?

Did you have to cut out the bumper, like is required of the OEM hitch? I was considering the Hidden Hitch option that protrudes under the bumper and requires no cutting. Edit: This is the Hidden Hitch that @Kedis82ZE8; had linked in another thread...

Read the Stickies in this section. They'll give you an idea of what wheels will look like on your car and how to determine the size of the tire to buy.

I got flat tire on the way back from Vegas in the CX5. We did a little off roading between Jean and Primm, NV. If all you Californians are looking to avoid that miserable traffic out of Vegas right before the state line, you can't. This road is for off road cars with off road tires. It's fun to...

The current level seems fine. I didn't note the level before hand, but I'll have to make a note about how much comes out during the next oil change. I'll check the level again after my road trip. I'll adjust accordingly if it's off. That Valve really makes it easy to drain oil in a clean and...

I did my oil change today. It took less than 15 minutes to drain. Weird part was that only 3.5 quarts came out and I put the required 4.8 qts last time, and this time too.

Why not just pull the exhaust off the car? It's not that difficult and you can find instructions on Corksport. I'd use high temp BBQ paint or engine paint.
