I mean boost is actually good at higher elevations, keeps your engine more responsive than NA. HOWEVER it's at the cost of producing so much more heat inside your engine bay during those low speed hauls. No bueno long term...

You're going to get a lot of utility out of it. Great choice by going v8 over a turbo 6. If you ever tow or haul anything, you will understand. Congrats!!!

That dude is in jail. It's up to whoever is running his business in his absence. If at all....

The year long sunny weather down here is addictive like crack.

Our wheel wells are too small, even with your lift. Stepping down to 17s will give you a little more sidewall meat. You might be able to go with a little more sidewall than total stock diamater, but not more than 10mm's probably. Anything more and you are going to have to deal with rubbing...

I fucking love it!!! Throw some 17's on it with some all terrain tires and send it!!!

That bike pump won't push the volume of air that you need to do a proper boost leak test. You will need an air compressor with a decent capacity. Think at least 3 gallons. Next, remove that Schrader valve, and install a pneumatic fitting with a ball valve. The ball valve will make flooding...

That button is the breather vent for the transmission. It looks like you might have a bit of bleeding coming out of the pivot shaft seal. I would clean up that whole area and see if it returns. As far as your uneven shifting, what kind of fluid went into your trans? I ask because our...

I would love to see pics of a catch can attached to this thing. Those are some tight spaces all around the battery tray....

Most importantly, YOU are ok. That situation could have easily gone another way. Thank you for sharing, and yes you should replace them as a pair.

I've got the same issue on my gen2. Power steering, ABS, and tractiontion control have been non existent for almost 2 months. Haven't had time to examine it yet. Been tuning up our truck so I can swap dailies and fix the mazda after new years. Did your step son notice any odd behavior before...

Are you still going to keep the forum, and/or run it?

Don't even play bro.....

There was. I don't know much else about it, but there definitely was an "atenza" that was gen2, AWD, non turbo, RHD. Not sure for the gen1 but I'd imagine there might be one too. OP has put a lot of time and love into his project. Nice build!

On the driver side of the fuel injector rail. It usually has a cover/shield over it

I considered taking my grinder to some of the bolt cup, that's the only spot where the under piping kit touches. The materials are supposed to be steel, so grinding a bit off for clearance won't harm the structural integrity of that bar. I never got around to it. I took it off for some...

@GCPhotographers I found some. These are from 2019. TB Performance traction bars on both front and rear. The piping is the HTP under engine piping kit. The hotpipe would just sit on the edge of the passenger bolt cup. It seemed stable so I drove it a while. The piping did get a small...

Whalecum! Always glad to have another grease monkey on here. Good info on your Mountune crank thread.

Thank you for your service brother.

Bilstein for the win! Whether it's track or street, their rebound valving is what makes the ride smooth yet sporty. Having fiddled with a couple of adjustable coilovers, I wouldn't waste my time or money on them again. Proper damper valving and spring rates will make a bigger difference than...
