Is the timing belt tensioner supposed to have some sort of internal spring or does the slack solely rely on the tensioner spring? I put my timing belt back on yesterday and it seems as though there is too much slack, I bought a new spring from mazda as well. Just doesnt seem like its tight enough.

Just thought I would share my experience with everyone here and hopefully shed some light on a lot of mis diagnosis on the mazdaspeed protege engine. i had tapping in the top end, first thought it was just valves tapping. Turns out my intake cam was bent, Replaced the cam and viola, car runs...

I need a stock intake camshaft and the gear (cam gear not a dealbreaker) . My intake cam is warped slightly and I need a replacement. Not really looking for aftermarket but not out of the question either. Shipped to tallahassee, FL 32309 ripdotcom@comcast.net paypal is ready.

Looks like I may have a bent intake cam. I heard a tapping and thought it was the alternator (needed to be replaced anyway was only delivering 12v) anyway, I pulled the timing belt cover and started the engine and could notice the intake cam gear bolt moving ever so slightly up and down in...

2003 MSP 93K miles. I bought it to setup as a nice DD / Track car, after driving it for a few weeks I have decided to get another E36 BMW. It's a great car, just not enough power for me in its stock form. Car is currently running 6psi with cat replaced with resonator. a couple good sized dings...

From what I understand the hesitation problem in the MSP is due to a overload of fuel when the boost sensor detects positive pressure. Since the msp was designed to produce 6-7Psi then there is no variable pulse width from the ecu, it simply dumps a predetermined amount of fuel wether you are at...

Title says it all. I definitely have a bad wastegate, bought a new ATP one and need to install it. Do I have to remove the whole turbo, manifold and downpipe?

Changed turbo with tested good turbo and WG. Cleaned MAF No more engine codes present (was getting 0660 for vics but code has not returned since I fixed the vacuum line that goes to the boost sensor) Hooked up boost sensor Changed plugs Checked for boost leaks checked compression 180 across the...

I put another turbo on the MSP today. Engine feels great just drives like a NA. Only code I can pull is 0660 intake manifold valve. Would this cause the severe lack of power? i did a compression test and its 180 across the board. The turbo I installed today seems to have a strong wga so i doubt...

Just wondering where the most common oil leaks are on the MSP. Mine was definitely leaking from the oil return line but that will be fixed tomorrow. Have not taken the timing belt cover off yet but I was just wondering if the front main seal was a common issue. i plan on changing the valve cover...

Bought my 2003 mica black MSP last week and need a front snap in grill for the front bumper. ripdotcom@comcast.net

Anyone have pics of a stock msp turbocharger? Mainly need pics of the exhaust side that connects to dp.

Just wondering if there are any budget direct fit replacement turbo's for the msp. Mine is definitely bad , i am probably going to buy a used one from here but I found this on ebay...

Just picked up a 2003 MSP today and I knew it had issues but didnt know I was in for this. It sounds like the turbo is simply shot. I can hear it spinning down and it sounds like dry bearings. When I rev it , smoke comes out the back, i would imagine the turbo is done. No big deal (I hope) Are...
