I was going to try and finish it for tomorrows carolina mazdas meet, but i really dont want to rush it last minute and **** something up, the heat wrap didnt show up today, and im not going to shell out the extra money to buy some when I can just wait for it to get here. As of right now, here is a list of things that need to be done


*Fix camber on front drivers side (wasnt paying attention when i put the coils on lol)
*Put 440's in
*Upload t3/t4 440 map
*Finish rest of exhaust
*Heat wrap downpipe/midpipe
*Buy wastegate circlip
thats about it...ill update if i remember anything else, but man do i miss driving my car :(

I don't think you'll be able to drive like that. Only because i think you wont be able to turn =P. Its definitely low and i gone all the way sitting on the ground with my BC's and it looked exactly like that. Looking at those tires is why i came up with that conclusion. But i could be so wrong....haha
 
lol the funny thing is, thats not even all the way down =0

but i already tried turning the wheels, it gets to about 20-25 degrees before it rubs the fender and lifts up the car as it turns haha
it def. looks sick, but riding this low with my daily is kinda dumb, im going to tear s*** up everyday on the way to school
 
The brand is Toser racing...some taiwanese company i guess, never heard of them, but they seem to be built pretty well
I got them used from here

also, today i put the 440's in, loaded the t3/t4 440 map and man...the idle is absolutely perfect, as soon as it started the AFR's hung right around 14-15 until i shut it off
its an awesome map, but i wont be driving it until my heat wrap comes in, was going to try to buy some at advanced, but 30 bucks? HELL NO

updated list
*Weld 02 Bung into j-midpipe
*Heat wrap downpipe
*Finish exhaust
*Wastegate circlip
*Fix front camber
 
god dam it, i was going to drive my car for the first time tomorrow, and now my ******* oil feed fitting is all twisted
i noticed some oil leaking from the NPT-AN adapter, so i used some teflon tape on the NPT side to stop the leak, but as i was taking the AN line off, this is what happened

more money to put in this ******* car
 
Damn.... What exactly do you need? Its a little expensive but have you though of going stainless?
 
what do you mean? thats a black SS line already, the 90* fitting bent to s*** when i took it off,
so im ordering something beefier right now, only 20 bucks
not too bad, but incredibly annoying
 
yea...i couldnt believe it was happening. Apparently the swivel section decided it didnt have to spin, so the 90* section just twisted....
oh well, just ordered a regular -4an hose end, and this,

well apparently a normal AN fitting doesnt work with PTFE hose, this is getting seriously old. All I want to do is drive the ******* car, and the smallest things keep setting me back.
So now i have to ******* order 2 feet of -4AN hose, and another -4AN hose end...awesome
 
nevermind, said **** it and just put a clamp on the end of the hose, leak free so far,
but im thinking the flex radiator hose isnt allowing the coolant to go through..pretty decent kink in it
so im gonna go grill while i wait for it to cool down, then put the stock hose back on, and drive the **** out of it :D
