We have just imported two RX-8 GReddy Sumps out of the factory in Japan and have been told these are the last two they had in...

Hi guys.
Just wanted to show off a set of R3 bumpers that our colleagues have finished today.
The rear bumper had a scuff on it while the front one had a small crack at the bottom due to a track excursion (oops) and was full of stone chips.
This is the product ready just out of the oven and will...

A bit of a lazy advert, as I'm not 100% sure to sell, but while I was in the garage,I thought I'd take a couple of pictures.
The back box and manifold only have a few thousand miles on it, the tips are also in very good condition.

Not sure on price, a good offer might convince me to sell

When fitting Eibach 20mm spacers the hub studs can protrude by approx`5mm above the spacer face, the recess in the back of the wheel can vary from 3mm to 4mm deep, where the figures are cast within the recess it reduces the depth of the recess so the length of the studs will need to be shortened...

Figured I'd post up here to say my Dorito Decade has passed today!

The car still exists and I still talk to the owner, but it definitely got me hooked!

This is a question commonly asked here on the forum, or FaceBook, or at car meets, and is usually the wrong question!

“Limp Mode” is, as the name suggests, a specific mode that the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) switches to if/when it detects a fault that doesn’t stop the engine running but could...

As with new memberships, renewal of lapsed is a manual process and it could take anything from an hour to a couple of days (worse case) before your membership status is...

Today, or for the last week or so, I've been looking for a way of logging boost and other stuff for my MazdaEdit tuned turbo renesis.

For anyone who has ever tuned one of these things, on the stock ECU, they surely know how much of a pain it is to juggle AFRs, MAF scaling and boost levels...

Has anyone ever separated the fuel tank heat shield from the tank? The one that’s between the exhaust and tank, mines rotten and I’d like to get a new one or a good used one to treat and paint, but from what I can see after searching websites and even going to Mazda, there is no part number or...

As many of you know the S2's sump is quite different from the S1.
It is made out of two pieces,the upper and lower sump.The upper sump is made out of aluminium and has a hump on the side for more oil capacity,however that hump is in the way of a low mount turbo kit like the Greddy kit.
With no...

Looking at the figures I have already established that 40th Anniversary build numbers ie 1 to 400 do not have consecutively matching VIN`s so as a few owners of Kuro`s do not know the build number of their cars due to not having the numbered sill plates I decided to investigate further and it would...
