So see my Speed 3 first day at CorkSport MazdaShowdown 2023 post if it seems a odd title. Speed 6 on Saturday had a battery voltage = 1.9vdc. So the Speed 3 went Saturday and Speed 6 battery was disconnected and charger this time was charging correctly for a overnight charge. Checked in morning...

My third try to attend my neighbor CorkSport on Mazda Showdown finally happened. From the start though it was almost a failure. Speed 6 has the most CS parts so thought to take it, so a helpful overnight charge since last drive was 10 days earlier. Saturday Morning was raining at my house...

Since CS was having another sale, I decided on Lowering springs. Was a experiment with fitment, I would have returned to OEM springs if wasn't satisfied. Once I had vehicle the way I wanted it AND reliable for daily use. Was disappointed with the New Bilstein shocks and stock springs look. First...

So Pacific Northwest went from rain to snow to freezing rain to rain.... 3 hasn't been driven much with stablemate 6 in the family. Battery tender was disconnected upon hood closure. So today was back to rain day....and interior needed fresh air... So a daylight Xmas light tour of my "tuning"...

So....since my 07 Speed 3 was a Craigslist killer deal. Thought that this Speed6 would be a easy repair of one cylinder rod Knock. CL Ad data was honest and detail descriptive. Seller talk went well. Rent trailer....drive time would be a whole day trip to Port Angeles on Olympic Peninsula...

I found that the gasket on disassembly had caused a bad spot in positioner.. When I rebuilt motor and was breaking in. Odd operation of throttle, and engine response. Of course it's a total rebuild so expected some things. So in troubleshooting this I found a answer to, what is stroking when key...

....This is not a how to.... This is how I did it.... I needed access to wire up ignition and illumination for a set of center dash pods. IGN1 or IGN2 are available on PJB and I personally don't like tapping into wire loom unless no other way. Bonus is the existing fuses for the needed circuits...

About what to look for in the differences from OEM style and other cheap sources. Had read on this forum about the warning buy OEM only, now I know why and or what to look for in a replacement. Wanted a cheap 3' no cat downpipe (amazon $140) with gasket and bolts. That lead to the following...

Big Aluminum Black metal Bits to install! {{What was in my mind when I saw New Products Page}} So the Black Friday 15% meant spending more to get bigger discount !! Liked Poly Bushing end, when you stare at yours..you see mucho rubber bush misalignment on chassis frame side...

Found some info here and there wanted to share some helpful (?) hints on my install of Bilstein B16 series front & rear with springs kit. Spend some time if you want the best pricing, some sites don't have direct fitment data for comparisons. I found best pricing wasn't direct Mazda type of...

I am at a loss, if I use only the versatune editor to add, modify the changes for adding Grimmspeed BCS OTS -- Base 93US Octane Grimmspeed Interrupt -- changes in settings (using editor comparison) into the OTS --Base 93US Octane High Load with High Flow Down pipe... will it work? Questions are...

Please tell me somebody who deals with csv files and Google sheets has created a "plug in" or template. I went into hardware not software and math was why! What I end up with has absolute units values with no ability to format units to match Baseline x axes... I see boxes and my mind goes...

Let know if I can get anymore out of this K04. Max rpm a little short of redline but 3rd gear WOT I get nervous that close... Maybe the three lanes filled by semi's on Freeway at merge in my mirrors didn't want to stretch to limiter. Turbo was replaced by PO. Pic may help to verify it is a...

Hello. So I am blissfully ignorant. My experience with using VersaTune is nothing compared to all of you. I have, I think a good running one now. My knock was bad until I searched and read up on the Mass Flow tables and modified using one from forums. SEEMS good now. I have random lean idle dtc...

Part 1: 150K 07 MZ3 -- So quest was do I pull the existing (fixed now but) broke motor or wreckers..........? In the days before Cov'd.. ebay photos of search term >engines for sale<.... (see where this is going) break down to closest, 70 miles...your friendly no name one owner wrecker yard...
