What did you do to your BG(part 8)

[Mazda_Powered]

awesome guys! I thought you'd all find this fairly useful! lol I can't stand being a DIY guy and not having a proper setup to sand/buff the pins to a mirror shine, I'm stuck with vise grips and emery cloth and that only does so much as you all know!! lol

I'll keep you posted, and I'll talk to Ryan if Ferdi is able to go through with it to get approval.

[M323GTR]

Well im in the same boat as you are no buff wheel or sand wheel either lol

[KaleoXtreme]

I'd be in for a F/R set or maybe 2 sets depending on price.

[FE3-323]

im all for the idea jack. there is alot of perks to stainless in this area. especially with grease slots.
They should be fairly easy for ferdi to make up- he's the king shizzle

[Mazda_Powered]

that's exactly why I thought of it in the first place "hey Ferdi could probably design this!" otherwise I would have just kept slaving away to the steel pins lol.

got to drive around with Durwood today in his rhd GTX...my car feels so, inadequate? now lol. Definitely need to get some turbo cams, or at least the exhaust cam...and fix these damn leaks!!!!

[MazdaNoob]

Jack. Think the cams make that much of a difference?

Started the swaybar swap in the red 323 ... Much more work than I thought to drop the subframe to just re-re a sway bar.

Was grateful for a second set of hands with crazycanadian helping me out.

Found out my GT stock sway bar has been hitting the subframe just by the endlinks.

Curious how I can change that with the bigger ZX2 sway bar..

I decided to go lower today, after having my coilovers installed for one whole day. lol Ended up with a top of tyre to fender gap of 1.5 fingers in the front and 2 fingers in the rear. Looks good and rides like a dream. Dampers are currently set at 15 front and 13 rear out of 33 available settings.

And for anyone who was wondering, they ended up sending me D2s. I really like them, so hopefully they'll last.

Sounds like you having the same problem I am having. I doubt you will be able fix it. In my case the bar would have to be practically laying on the control arm to keep from hitting the subframe.

MX3 bar or BJ protege bar attached to the strut may be the only solutions


Installed freshly painted wiper arms, carbon fiber wiper cowl with a nice layer of clear coat, and some vent visors.

Found out why my injector seal was leaking. For some reason I never saw this stuck in the head when I put the fuel rail on with the motor. So I had 2 in there and that caused the leak. Probably a placebo effect but the car feels better lol.

I'm still trying to figure it out in my head, because Darren's GTX is obviously a GTX, so it's running the BP26 engine/head...so it has the GTX intake manifold, different intake ports, and the BP26 cams. The external WG he's running shouldn't make the difference as I have no spiking and we're both running the same boost levels lol.

I think it's the stock GTX combo that makes the different to be honest, it had plenty of power in the high rpms as well, so those oddly shaped intake ports, plus bp26 cams might be the trick.

Well I've got something to look for now as well lol, glad you got it sorted man!!

Weekends like this past weekend make me wish I didn't have all these old ****ty cars lol.

Burned up the motor in my maroon car. Felt like everything was against me trying to get it back home, trailer issues, forgetfulness, ect.

Damage mint condition color match hood for the other pro4wd, pissed. I could literally be riding around in an Evo9 paid for in cash for what I have sunk into these mazdas the last two years. It'll be worth it when done but some days it is hard to remember that. The worst part is that it is mostly my fault or rather it could have all been prevented with a little more attention. Shoot.

[azgtx]

Been there done that sucks problem with these cars is the end is too far away cuz your never done. That evo will suck on your wallet too and harder.
