What have you done to your Mazda6 today?

Took out my car for the first official snow fall... man, does it have a lot more control then expected :|... I did have a little but of fun, not too much though but it's ok, more snow coming tommorow ;). hahaha.
 
Cussed and swore because some stupid b**** did this:

Not sure what can be done to fix it, it was while I was at class during the nasty winds we had last night.
 
kind of hard to see what you're refering to Steve with the reflection and all. But if it's what looks like what may be a dent to the right of the handle there....any paintless dent removal place should be able to get that out for around $50 as long as the metal isn't creased.

That's where it's at, just right of the handle and down about 8" from that on the face of the door. It's got a pretty decent ding in it. I called my ins. and it's a $250 deductible on my comprehensive claim, so PDR is looking like the cost effective way to go.
 
Had a funny feeling this morning. Let me check my alcohol level in the tank. It was bone dry!! I just filled it up with a fresh gallon on sunday. Looked and the plastic 90 I had used had came loose from maybe the bag I have sliding around in my trunk. The fluid was leaking down under my rear bumper. But doesnt look like there is any damage from it. I need to buy the 90's they sell on devils own site. These have metal teeth that grip the tubing better while I had used a plastic one out of the plumbing section.

Also drained my occ after 2 weeks. ....12oz. Yikes!
 
Does it squirt meth automatically when you hit any boost or can you control it??? I rarely hit boost during DD (im slow :() but that would get expensive.
 
You can adjust your starting point and at what psi you want full spray. I have mine set about 7psi since I tend to hit 5 very frequently. I need to order more since I am on my last gallon. Been through 3 already.

Also my 5mm wheel spacers came in the mail today. Time for a wider stance in there rear :)
 
Do you guys think it would be a bad idea to run my mods with a DP untuned for a little while ??? Hope I won't need fuel pump internals if I do . . .
 
I would think you would be ok. I am untuned running a 3" open downpipe. No issues as of yet. My stock fuel pump is holding around 1700psi.
 
My Cobb TIP was installed over the weekend (Cobb SRI was already on there). I wanted to run about 100 miles on it so that my ECU could correct itself. 25 more to go! I can already tell it's cleaner sounding while not being overly loud. Quality part.
 
they work, but quality/longevity i would question.
I did a full LED conversion, all purchased from superbrightLEDs.com.

GREAT WLED, hyper bright white LEDs. used various LED types for all interior lights/license plate & parking lights.
 
Interesting, I wanted to order all my bulbs from the website (autolumination.com) to save on shipping because they carry the "Tower II" and from my knowledge they are the absolute best for MS6 parking lights. OJ Bartley's parking lights. I need to get this done asap...
 
Its an LED light so it will run cooler / less energy / last longer than stock. Even if they go out i can stick the stockers back in.

Anyway how hard was the install?? On the ebay description they say all you do is pop open the hood and the light is right there. Unplug the stocker and replace it . . . finished !!!
 
If you've got an intake, it makes the job easier. There are 2 small spots that rotate out and let you pull the bulb with them. For mine, I used the PIAA LEDs from Racinglab because the SBL ones aren't recommended for high temp areas. They were $20 shipped, but have lasted since install without issue, and match my 6000k lows and fogs really well.

Which one from this page fits our car ?

NO!!!! whatever you do do NOT purchase tower II for your parkign lights.
They do not fit... you have to force them in, then they get stuck i had to to remove my headlight assembly and juggle them out of there!

oh and the WLED-WHP LEDs that i am using for all my interior + parking lights are working great still. Parking lights have been in for about a month. If they do burn out they were cheaper than those racinglabs ones, i might get those if mine ever burn out.
 
do those lights fit all the lights in our car?? its the same bulb for a map light as it is for the liscense plate light.. and for the door lights?? if so i would really like to do this.
