Whats to keep you from freeing up the front shocks on both sides and wiggling the sway bar out some to make those nuts easier to get to?
I gotta replace the front springs, those bushings and my swaybar links need replaced cause the ball joints are blown out. That was gonna be my plan of attack but havent started it yet.

driving into work today my brakes started acting funny. when i press the pedal it feels like the brakes are woking then there's a pop i can feel, i think it's comming from the back right and the car feels like it speeds up and the pedal got really soft. it seemed fine after that but freaked me out a little when it happend

Shouldn't this be in a Toyota forum?

I didn't see any mention of his floor mats causing this.

Just stick a washer under the bolts to shim it and pray it solves the problem.....

Car feels AMAZING!!! Front end seems more planted and solid and I got back a significant amount of power, particularly under boost from fixing the manifold leak.
YIPPEEEEE!!!

I do not remember to tell the truth. Next time you pull it in I will pop my head under there and look around. Sounds logical that you could. Hmmmm. But you draw 24 " of vacuum and idle very smooth. I will take a look. I have been working on to many engines recently. Finally back to the mazdas.
New tire's, H.i.d's 12k installed look great. Ordered new FPR stock, installed Ebay purple Fpr w/guage in car( but it's not hooked up nor will it ever be, it's just for show.)
And bought new fuel pump the upgraded Walboro of a member but sending him payment next week.
All I need soon is a new battery, thinking of going with braille 11 pound battery. Anyone run this battery yet?
And I don't drive my car every day.

Depending how long your car sits at a time, the braille battery may wear out relatively quickly. Also, braille batteries are just Harley Davidson batteries, rebranded and wrapped in fake CF... Just so you know, you pay about an extra $100 for that CF wrap, lol.
Also, why did you install a Fpr gauge if you don't need it nor will ever use it? That doesn't make a lot of sense...

biting my tongue on that post is killing me, but I'll just be nice and quiet.
Don't hold back Wagon, you've been good lately. Time for you to indulge.
And on the note of lightweight batteries, they save you less than 10 lbs. But from the looks of it (you installed an fpr gauge for show) you're not much concerned with functionality. (headshake
I don't want the CF one due to the extra cost. My car sit's about 3-4 days a week.
I ordered the ebay fpr with gauge on it, but don't trust it so I'm not gonna install it.
It looks good in the engine bay since it's purple like my GReddy type S. And I just ordered a new stock fpr.
I don't care if anyone hate's on me about it, have fun. I won't be pissed off.
Don't bite your tongue it can lead to bleeding.

Yay!
First off 12000K HIDs are stupid. They cast less light than a proper halogen bulb, and and have the added bonus of putting you on 5-0 radar.
a FPR as engine bling is stupid. I remember when you bought this thing thinking it would fix your fueling issue, and the resulting flametory posts. putting that in your engine bay will raise "WTF is THAT?" in best cases, and "What an idiot!" at worst case from people who know.
If you want to impress 16 year old boy racer idiots, then you're on the right track, but IMO, both of those are rice.
As for the battery, I agree with the pointlessness of brailes. I have a Stinger Car audio battery which I haven't used in a few years... It was basically a waste of money.

How much brake fluid do I need to flush the system in my car? I'm putting together a revised springtime parts list/cost and need to factor this in...
