What have you done to your Mazda6 today?

- Start date
Thanks bova. This must be my case since I have mild cams in it. This is the funny thing. when I test drove it and cranked it at the dealership it started perfectly. But the first time I disconnected the battery the problem has presist. Maybe there was a flashed tune on the car and it reset with the battery??
Steve- the interior looks better already. I used some cleaner and got rid of all that oily armor all. I am putting a different shifter and shift boot in as well as a new consol cover. Its just a matter of time before I do some mods. Right now my main focus is finding out why it has a problem at start up. It may not be a bad idea to take it to a corvette tuner for them to take a look at it. i cleaned up the engine bay alittle bit today. It was rediculous how the previous owner neglected the engine compartment. It was like mud shooting out of every cranny when I took the air hose to it. I got it decent. I am skeptical about sparying some engine cleaner and hosing the stuff off. It may do more harm than good.
wannabe - There is exactly 3" of ground clearance on that lip. I will remove it an use it for car shows once I get a 2" drop.

dammit. you have a picture of your new car next to your 6 Taylor.. i wanted to do that but i don't think ill have a chance too unless i ask at the dealership when i trade it in.. I'm going to take a bunch of pics before i trade it in though....
Steve ill have my thread up tonight.. although i don't have any pictures of the actual car yet because its not at the dealership ill throw one or two of the Promo Pics in it just for starters.

everything except for what i've already mention will be on it at trade in..a friend from highschool works thier, so im getting a killer deal on the trade in compared to what taylor was offered for example.. so im not complaining about it. so basically the next person who buys it, is buying a race car.

For what? Your spark plugs?

I think he's referring to Bosch Icon windshield wipers? Either way I'm still kinda confused.

Wow, I didn't even think of that. And I use those! The part about cleaning the cars threw me off.

Ha! I just did Stage 2 last Saturday, so I know what you're talking about. What was your favorite part? Ripping apart your interior? Drilling holes through a metal part of your car? Getting supremely paranoid about losing that blasted little blue bushing?

the effing 6mm lock washer freaking wanted to lose itself, so I had to wait until today to get a new one to complete the job. Not to mention, making sure the TWM plate was completely secure on the stock plate with like 50 different pieces....holy buckets...
at least it's done though.
