I think there are a lot more differences than you might think; not 100% on it though. Could be as simple as VVT, could be different rings or piston design or whatever. There's all sorts of stuff. *shrugs*

Ha. Typical. 2010 also has a different engine code....so there were 3 revisions of the DISI.

That's a nice carpet you got there.

Look it just equates to a shitty cal on Mazdas part with their first electric P/S application. There's really no point in beating this dead horse more.

Vacuum pulls oil down. Hence when you do break in procedure you want to pull oil down the walls to rid it of any metal particles.

Cold start = one big vacuum event and as it pulls the engine rpm's down. Yeah?

I dig the lazy efforts. +1

@VashEXE if you suspect something valve seal related, remove the intake manifold and inspect for oil in it. If it's doing it bad enough there will be pools. How much oil are we talking here? And 25% really isn't great for leakdown, fyi. That's getting to the point that you will blow by a bit...

Impacts Gen2 more than Gen1, just unplug and be done.

toe in* if you have problems with wandering. Just ~1/16th of an inch will do just fine.

That will work just fine, though it will definitely not grip like a mad man through the twisties. For DD, you wont notice anything. I run low treadwear tires anyway, so I'd rather just get the most out of it. Though different materials wear in different ways; we all know how the dunflops ate...

Front: -2.5° Camber, 1/16th toe IN (for high hp...or really anything over 350) Rear: -2° Camber, neutral toe. That is what I use for my alignment specs. If you choose to do toe OUT in the front, your car will have better turn in feel but you will also wander significantly on any road that is...

@Maisonvi what do you want? It's Detroit. :-D Welcome new guy.

Duh. Sport Cups all day bruuuuuuh. They're just garbage in this cold weather.

Around the track.... not likely unfortunately. But in a straight line from a roll...yeah probably :)

Way to go @CorkSport - Derrick ;) Also nice Stingray over there John. I might know a guy that works on those....too much fun for the money.

Only way to tell is by empirical data my man. No two vehicles are the same so it would be very very hard to get this data; really you'd have to have a pretty decent sample size of very similar vehicles to make this data happen in any reliable way.

You also have a 2nd gen motor; these just hold up way better. My 2nd gen had 100k of hard hard miles on it....180 across the board. My 6 has 61k miles....not so great.
