shot in the dark but you should check the coil pack harness connector near your HPFP, make sure its all the way plugged in.

Pretty sure that connector goes to the power steering pump.

that's awesome, thank you!

so LS swap to make real power? /s my 2nd MS6 transmission has a bad 2nd gear, won't engage at all. IF I'm going in to swap my front diff swapping a couple gears might as well go for broke. Do you happen to know how much larger those gears are? Thank you! i wish i would have saved this a...

I've been using that to try to find the diesel gear swap info, no luck so far.

I'm talking about the rears, MS6 has a mechanical rear parking brake so they offer a 4 piston - Electric parking brake is a 6 piston. the new mazda 3 get a 6 piston caliper apparently. I wonder if the rear pistons are the same size on the stage 2 and rear 4 piston caliper. Next time I need to...

IF you order a rear bbk for MS6 you only get a 4 piston caliper not 6. 1k for a parking brake adaptor is steep. At least discount the rear 4 piston setup a bit to offset the difference from the 6 piston.

Yeah $1,800 is a lot of dough for a 4 piston rear kit when the front 4 piston kit is $850.

Whoops read that too fast! Thanks

just a heads up, I replaced my seal on my oil cooler 1.5 years ago and the leak is back. The cooler was re-designed at some point (i assume to provide a better sealing surface. My oil cooler is black and the revised one is silver. This video talks about the gasket issue and the revised mazda...

I'd be curious to know if you have a forged crank in the 2.5.

Fuck yeah! Ordered. Now to read up on opening up my transmission.

are you sure it's not the oil cooler gasket on top of the oil filter housing? Mine was leaking and creating a similar area.

on my car i have just under 40mm between the bottom of the intercooler and the valve cover. CPE Gen2 TMIC with MS6 elbow if that makes a difference.

Yeah no problem, let me know if you want me to email you a non-compressed photo.

Wanted to say i followed this guide and it was easier than i expected! Wish i had done this sooner!

This video shows how to do it.

I can hear a faint grinding noise in that clip on top of the normal DI noise, I don't think that is an electrical/ spark plug issue though. Maybe the noise is coming from the serpentine belt or PS pump. If it is a pulley the noise will get worse, you will find out one way or another. Side...

I have a CPE TMIC installed, what measurement are you looking for?

Looks like the superchargers mounted over the intake are a hot charge (non-intercooled), probably is not as efficient compared to the intercooled version. That being said my 3rd gen 4runner is not intercooled but water injection helps, should not be an issue.
