I had Diamond tuning do mine. I was interested since they were able to work with my VersaTune software package. They do both Cobb AP or VersaTune. Everything was on line, and they spent as much time and back and forth with my logs and their tuning magic as needed to give me exactly what I...

Holding my breath for next episode!

+2 for Cometic-- have on both my rebuilds. Especially if you get deck and head machined flat for the different thicknesses.

WOW ! I'm not the only one that uses a Dash Hawk, got mine way back in 2009 for getting MZ specific PIDs....mine is just above steering column in lower front of tach / mph nacelles.

Exactly!!! I had forgotten the first fact in post. Yes expensive, you need to have the ability to verify the surfaces flatness corner to corner. Visual inspection is not enough. A head resurface is really the usual step in a head gasket failure. Then if machine shop finds a real bent head...

A good source of proven parts -- https://mazdaspeeds.org/index.php?threads/proven-parts-list-common-parts-that-dont-suck.4476/ Be careful of anything besides OEM or the list items. If you buy cheap engine block rebuild gaskets and seals --- buyer beware --- Personally I prefer Mahle gaskets &...

Bought a bad motor 07 speed 3 with engine out rebuilding it and reinstall. Also did a 06 speed 6 rebuilding a engine reinstall back into the crappy chassis. Then that engine/flywheel/clutch I transfered into another much better 06 speed 6. Engine and clutch alone are same in my experience...

Mahle was one I used. The seal is double lipped and a dust (paper? Fabric?) Cover towards clutch side. The seal is described as with a retainer, it installs in place over flywheel bolt flange. Then when you pull it out/off. Maybe buy a Rock auto cheap! +30$ seal and save your current one as...

The red wire is just a example of the passenger frame box channel that motor mount body base sits on. A ground stock one, if I remember goes from that frame box channel to bracket for TMIC corner. You just need to make sure a good ground exists there. The fuel pump bracket is atop HPFP. That has...

Thank you for your follow-up. Nice to see solved!

Please let us know the before and after results. Interesting to see if the results changes your low oil pressures.

There are 3 bolts for that bracket that the brass ground terminal mounts too. I can only show 2, other is hidden but accessable to remove/clean/tighten. There is a ground connection between passenger motor mount (engine ear with 2 studs) and chassis frame rail. These are for electrical noise...

Speed 6 and 3 share same upper wire loom. So one picture is the brass lug on a OEM style ground in OEM location. The loose one is a 6 but the wire is exactly the same and shows the location of it coming out of harness loom.

I looked at that other sites thread. While your p0012 is related to that portion of valve timing. HPFP output pressure is not related -- unless the spillvalve on HPFP is bleeding off or PRV is leaking. Is engine running fine if you stay out of boost? So fuel demands are met by the current...

Purchased on Dec 28 MZ3 2008 Mica Blue + "quick fuel" fuel door & auto rear view mirror (hate) at a multi model Super Dodge dealer. Of course failed during the mega dealer failures just a year later but was fortunate that Dodge factory paper warranty was transferred to genuine Mazda... Which I...

I found that black abs did not like heater line temps. Ballooned and bent a little under the heat / pressure of engine cooling water loop. Was a temporary measure until I found a prebend shape that was just right.

Excellent write up! My old man eyes need help as much as your vision upgrades. My 6 is still on a probation period if it doesn't piss me off by next winter. A great present for long term ownership.

The turbo oil drain plumbing looks great! My current drain is bent up stock piping, will likely fail. Now I see a option to replace it with. It is pia to get access to remove or correct with transfer case in place from below. I don't have a pressure oil nozzle filler so make sure Transfer case...

If you are holding the hose going to the front pipe nipple on TB then it goes to metal cooling crossover pipe. The pipe is connected to oil cooler and over transmission housing to hose that connects heater core. A small pipe nipple on that crossover pipe is just below the TB and above starter.

Your previous post you were asked to log specific parameters. We need logs to help diagnose your issues. If your concerns are ECU related, then need to get logs. Especially around engine operation before and after the fault happens...
