Hey I was in contact with a guy from this site and he stopped replying to me recently. I found out I have a bent rim and was looking for anyone who might have swapped some aftermarket rims with the stock and have them laying around. I have a 2003 p5, they are the 16" alloy rims and really would...

Hey so I have to take my car in to renew the registration. I was just going to ask some of you all with aftermarket parts on... I'm just wondering if I'll be able to pass my emissions check with my header installed. I mean I know I have two cats in there but feel like I most likely wont be...

Hi guys I've recently bought an 03 mazda 323 here in the uk! These cars aren't as popular over here as they are in the states. So was wondering if any of you guys could help me out? I'm looking at stancing the vehicle (hella flush in the USA) I can find a few vids on YouTube but none with much...

I'm not sure if there is a previous thread associated with this, but if there is, please let me know. I'll delete this post immediately. I got an aftermarket HU and decided to do the work myself to replace the OEM one. I know for a fact that I have all the wiring hooked up properly ( I had a...

I just recently put on some new tires, Kumho, got all four balanced and a 4 wheel alignment this past weekend. Now when im on the highway, usually between 75-82 mph the wheel will have just a very subtle slight shaking in the wheel. It kind of pisses me off cause I had the cheapest tires on...

Hey ya'll I had two questions about oil from you more experienced guys. I actually have never done my own oil change but have installed my cai, header and exhaust, etc. and was looking on the forums about info. I just had a bad experience on stripping my dirt bikes drain bolt and I never did...

Im looking to buy the roof racks from an MP5...Im from Puerto Rico...does anyone have them 4 sale? Thanks! 2002 Mazda Protege 5

I never post here, because I'm a ninja with the search button, and I'm a mechanic/tuner by trade, except this time I'm stumped, and everyone I ask had no actual experience with swapping non sportshift autos into 2002.5 and up cars equipped with it. My problem started with a noise under...

I recently purchased a new short shifter for my car, the TWM one for like 150. My question is I ordered some grease and new polyurethane shifter bushings with it. I know the install of the short shifter is fairly simple but I'm not sure where exactly those bushings go exactly? Is it somewhere...

For sale is 1 Stanley DOT approved(OEM) driver side headlight assembly with chrome bezel. Seal is still good on it. I'm asking $40 + shipping, unless you want to pick it up. I do paypal.

So this might sound mad lame to ya'll but I really don't like the small muffler tip we have on our cars. I definitely do not want a whole muffler so it doesn't sound ricerish but I was looking into just cutting off the one I have and adding maybe a litter bigger tip. My question is would you...

I'll try again, I recently got a P5 from a friend that has a broken driver's side headlight assembly and I purchased a Depo black bezel on accident so now I either need a passenger side depo black bezel assembly or a driver's side OEM assembly. Also the driver's fog light is busted if anyone...

So I purchased a set of four new slotted and drilled rotors from R1 concepts and a set of 4 new calipers that I plan to paint red this weekend. I have my mechanic friend installing it all next week some time. So my question is which way are the slots in the rotors supposed to face. It seems...

SO my car has been eating oil pretty quickly, even when im using thicker oil like 10-30 or 10-40. So im at 3,000 miles passed my last oil change and was thinking of things to do to make the car not be this oil hungry. So ive decided to switch out my oil pressure switch with some new thread...

One of my fog lights broke and I decided to buy two new ones. Was looking at the halo and angel and it just looked a bit to complicated to wire up the switch and it probably wouldnt be a tight fit like the oem. My question is when I looked at the fog light I see that there is a semi-circle...
