I have noticed on both my MS6 and my old Miata that the front and the back of the dipstick have a little variance for some weird reason. I'm not sure which is correct, I aim for the "high" one to be right at full, as that would place the low one just a little shy but well over the low line. If...

When my 6 was lowered I had to be a bit creative, even with the lower profile jack my dad had it was too low. I'd usually end up using the emergency jack on the frame rail to lift it up just enough to get the floor jack under it. It was one of those Walmart Black Jack floor jacks, and it was...

I'm a little late to the convo, but I have this exact setup, a Corksport TMIC, stock downpipe, second cat replaced by a Corksport race pipe. The sound change will depend on what kind of resonating they did, the Corksport one I have made the car slightly louder, but it's still a very quiet car...

Those coils seem really compressed, I wonder if those are stock springs that have just sagged to the point of near failure. They look a little too thick for stock though. The shocks are definitely stock and probably need to be replaced at this point. Pretty much the springs I'd look at are...

Yeah on my 6 I put a jack with a block of wood under there to support it and took the whole mount off.

I have a DeatschWerks DW65c in my 6. I only got it over the stock pump because I had Prime and Amazon got it to me much faster than the dealer could get me the stock part. The pump is an exact replacement for the OEM, although I'd suggest using a Mazda filter on it, the one included seemed to be...

Yeah, it's under the back seat. The seat is just held on by clips, you literally just pull up on the fronts and there are a couple of metal plates held on by screws, the one on the drivers side is coving up the fuel pump. Pull the pump out and you have open access to the tank. You need a tool to...

Awafrican covered it already, but the hardest thing is getting those torx bolts off. I cannot stress enough how important it is to have a good torx socket to get this done properly. I went through several cheap ones from various kits before I finally bought one from Autozone that was close to...

Jack at the diff itself, put stands at the rear of the frame rails. You'll need to jack up the front too and put it on stands as you need the car to be level when changing the fluids. You can also use the pinch welds in both the front and the back as jacking points if you are using a jack that...

Awafrican knows how to party.

Maybe just a little.

I'm not nearly a talented enough photographer to really capture it, unfortunately. It really takes a lot of sunlight to see the best in it, but at the same time it's so reflective that you can't really make out the color that well. I'm actually a half decent amateur photographer with some decent...

Oh yeah, a good paint restoration should help. At the start of the quarantine last year I got a DA polisher and did a multi step paint restoration on the car and I swear the color changed, like it was a couple of shades more to red than black. It looks really great in the sun. You have to be...

Lol, grape punch. Black cherry mica is one of my favorite car colors ever. It's a bitch to keep looking nice though, but personally I'm up to the challenge.

I had a cracked ring in my 6, I had gross and small evap leak codes at random for months before I replaced it. Also, if you don't tighten it down enough it might pop up from time to time.

Blasting is a much faster process and I'd recommend it if you have access to a compressor. I don't, and it took me a long time to let the Chemtool soak, vacuum, scrape, repeat until clean. It probably would have also gone faster if I had used better brushes, I had bought one of the Harbor...

Just download the ram IMO

Don't mind me, just trying to start a MS6 vs MS3 gang war up in here.

Welcome, we need more 6 guys to balance out the rabble of 3s around here.
