Flooding was a common problem with the fuel injected first gens. My dad was a Mazda mech at the time and would install on/off switches for the fuel pumps on customer cars. FD's don't flood since they purge the rotors for a few revolutions while cranking, but the GSL-SE will try fire as soon as you t...

Dang, maybe I should stock up!! Emissions is so lame... with double cats my carbon monoxide and dioxide numbers both went up instead of down... still passing by a mile. And you should have seen the monkeys doing my visual inspection - they pointed to the blow off valve and said the air pump wasn't c...

Thanks, but the Emissions Nazis want a second cat on my car even though it completely passes the sniffer!!

Wanted: FD Stock DownPipe

Looking for a stock down-pipe for a 93-95 RX7 FD. It connects between the stock twins and the stock main cat.

Prefer a working one, but I can use a plugged one, or possibly a fabbed one.

PM me, thanks!

I usually find leaks with a can of starting fluid (ether). If you spray near the air leak the engine will rev up.

Good luck panda!

Mazda 3 Rims (x4) - $80 obo

Hi All, For starters, don't get your hopes up. These aren't that great. My GF has an '08 Mazda 3 that when we bought new tires they said one of her rims had a wobble. We picked up a set of rims from Craigslist yesterday and had the tire place pick the best one for replacement. They said all the rims...

Wow, no wiper/wing makes the rear end look naked!

I pulled out the restrictor pills on my RX7 3rd gen to limit boost, had just the main cat in place (no pre-cat), a working air pump, then warmed up the car on the highway before passing first try. Try to go when they are not busy, so they can inspect you quickly and get you on the dyno. They just ke...
