nice, very sleeper. although i think it would look a lot better with some new wheels.

[mazkam]

Thank for the comment I will be getting the rims after the new paint job. I am planning on getting it sprayed in the Mazdaspeed6 titanium gray then add a set of rims that are 16" with 7 spokes, black spokes & polish lip. All i will do for now is spray the ones i have into silver.

JACK.

I have no idea of what my horsepower output with that setup at the moment. I only know that it is more than stock

I have recently installed Magnecor 8.5mm competition plug wires & I have the corksport strut brace in but not fully installed as i am having problems with the strut brace sitting down evenly for it to be bolted down properly as i start to tighten the nut on the strut mount the onther rise so high that it is very difficult to catch the other side to tighten it. Have anyone encounter this problem when installing thier Corksport strut brace? I am thinking of beating out the strut mounts bolts and replacing them with longer bolts

[Mazda_Powered]

typically you have to add the strut bar on top of the exsisting strut mount bolts. in other words, you need 8 more bolts

Pay no attention to Jacko over here.
Best way to do the CS brace is to take it appart completely. Break it down, then put the arms on, then you adjust the adjuster bolts so the bar fits inbetween the brace slots. Apply the hex bolts, washers and nuts. Tighten, and adjust the adjuster nuts. Remember, one is a lefty thread, the other is a righty.

I had to do the same thing with mine, but it does do its job well.

[Rustypro]

hey mazkam have u ran it on the track yet? 1/4 mile

[mazkam]

Not yet I am still sorting out some minor details with the car & my clutch is silpping when i floor the gas pedal.

Thanks for the advise it was a whole lot easier to install once i broke it down.
