    I know the BF 2wd had the old style bearings in the rear, but I thought the 4wd had sealed bearings all around. Do I have that wrong, or is there some other reason to have to redo them?

            I guess I had it wrong then. Good to know.

            Looking good boldy. I like that color.

              the colour is awsome it changes in every light condition, the body parts are rare mazdaspeed items. when i put the group n stuff in ill have a full respray and a new set of wheels il put the pics up. iv got the dyno printout of the group n engine if you would like to see it it was built dynoed and never run when i bought the group nj car the engine had nearly 13 grand of reciepts for the rebuild alone thats pounds not dollars should be quick then. and thanks for the comments
