Thanks man. It should arrive today.

I have had a TB traction bar for about 4 years now. It hasn't broken yet. You can feel difference. If the car didn't have beefy motor mounts I think the transmission would hit the bar... a lot. There is around 3mm of clearance on mine. The welds aren't the prettiest I've seen, but like I said...

I just needed spacers on the rear.

Are you using spacers? if so, take the front spacer off and see what happens

the weird washer is upside down and needs to be up past the threads on the stud. It's purpose is to help pop the latch off when you push the center button. Totally optional. here is another pic that may help with spring orientation.

they go on the stud between the bracket and the bumper latch. They are optional. The exposed stud on the front was too short for me to use the spring on, so I only have them on the rear. Pic isn't a speed, but shows how the spring goes

You have to remove the old black plastic bracket that the bumper cover used to snap into, so you will need both latches or the fender will now be floppy.

Another pic

Where did you want installed pics of this posted? I did mine a couple weeks ago. I think you could get rid of the rear slot (the one you taped over), useless for 90%+ of us. and maybe save on production costs in the future. i used the aluminum spacers in the back, nothing in the front. works...

I wonder if people with a staggered setup only use it for events and then switch back to a square setup after. wider sticky tires for track or whatever and then switch to save the expensive rubber and look normal until the next event.

Prolight or streetlight flywheel? did you replace or reuse flywheel bolts?

anybody have this?

What I've read is that these don't fit well with the fidanza flywheel. Maybe they work with others though.

Thank you for the responses. agreed that a person SHOULD replace flywheel bolts. This was more for data collection rather than advice. I can see now that my flywheel bolt polling exercise is doomed to failure. I suck at communicating, or it was a bad idea, or both... As for the flywheel in...

Always a good idea, could never hurt. Is that what you did? I found several citations of speed owners reusing their bolts with new threadlocker with no negative repercussions. Just curious what others actually do. This thread has a voting feature to tally what everyone has done. please feel free...

Seems like a lot of people go with the fidanza flywheel and LUK clutch, or spend over 2 x as much on a southbend. This single mass steel option hasn't been around all that long. I remember Dale Gribble saying he wished there was a single mass flywheel to pair with a LUK clutch. Does anyone have...

I found this MZ3 on ebay today: http://www.ebay.com/itm/2006-Mazda-Mazda3-s-/132164171210?hash=item1ec59935ca:g:x0cAAOSwIWVY9n59&vxp=mtr CTS-v calipers and hyundai genesis rotors.

me too! I'm on my 4th (and probably last) RMM

It seems like the bottom rear bolt would have to be removed to do things like clutch replacements etc., Where other mounts you won't have to (bolt goes through the carrier, not into the transmission). Are you worried about the threads on the soft aluminum of the transmission being damaged after...
