Not enough Baileys

AI'd this... Yes, the factory passenger-side motor mount (often called the passenger engine mount or upper right mount) differs between the standard first-generation 4-cylinder Mazda6 and the high-output turbocharged Mazdaspeed6. While the mounting locations and general subframe geometry in the...

Semi Update, I havent taken any time until today to really do some square 1 checks, but here it goes. First I took it for a drive attempting more indepth tests. Pretty much same/same. Vibes in any gear (accel & decel) between 1500 & 2000 rpm. Ebrake 1 click and goes away, returns when...

I cant give you any reliable info right now about replacement units, it was years ago. I also paid cash so I didnt get a receipt with item list. Sorry. If you pull the rear joint out, measure the distance from end cap to end cap and the diameter of the end caps. Use these 2 measurements to...

This was from a few minutes back... https://www.mazdaspeeds.org/threads/propeller-shaft-rebuild.15525/ Still wish I had the part numbers.

Speed6 has a electronic rear diff. drive shaft spins via the PTO all the time. PTO is fed from the trans at the right front CV shaft output.

I can see you arent working the steering wheel as much as previous years vids. Hell it looks like a Sunday drive at triple digits, lol. "Why does everyone over brake in that corner, its a high speed corner!":laughing:

Thats what Im hoping, fingers crossed. Might get time tomorrow to dig into it but today I had 2 other cars to take care of. I have played around enough to become pretty good at getting it to manifest under acceleration now too. I can make it happen and the resonance will continue while the...

Free rev the engine nets nothing out of the ordinary for a larger displacement 4cyl. Up at 3000 you can feel the engine is spinning faster, I wouldnt call it vibrating and certainly no resonance through the chassis. I took a good visual look at the PMM, it looks as it should, Also looked at the...

I surely hope not, both rears are brand new DSS units with no miles. The front left only has 2000 mi since reman and the front made no noise before replacing the VVT and installing the rear DSS shafts. There also are no other issues related all the way up to 70-80 mph. I changed the rear CVs...

Had the White Rabbit out again to day. Made a run the Princess auto (Canadian Harbor Freight) and again some Poutine for lunch. Last night I washed up and this am re-blacked some plastics. Im trying CarPro's Pearl water based VRP. So far Im impressed. Unlike silicone based products, with...

Proof of life update!! Took some time out of my summer 2-do list. It has been a slow process getting this car back to a usable state. Regretably I missed getting the car prepped for the local car show this summer. I managed to shake out about 5-6mm of clearance with the left DSS axle...

I like Bunz idea for on the cheap. Try using an allen grub screw with thread sealer. It will be flush if the right length. That way you can remove it later if needed.

As if I dont answer my own question just after posting. I have been searching the web lookin at measurements and such off and on for about 2 weeks. It was here all along. 19-1122 for OEM 23mm bar 19-1123 for Whiteline 24mm bar...

What Prothane bushing/saddle P/N did you use? Ive been trying to sort this out on my car, but no one ever seems to give a part number. Ive canvased the website and if I find one low enough in profile, the bolt holes arent right. Im about to make something custom, lol.
