Very odd request I’m sure, but, looking for anyone who might have any broken headlights or tail lights lying around they no longer want, series 1 or R3, I don’t mind.

Thanks in advance

Giving away a set of four used Extreme 225/40 R18 VR2 R7A - Medium - TW140 tyres.

I had them imported from Germany (at great cost) and they're amazingly sticky. Much grippier than Federals or Acceleras. These are proper motorsport tyres that increase cornering speeds vs 'trackday' tyres and will...

Hi,

I have had this car since 2017 and my intention was to keep it in the long term, but I need to finance a refurb project and this is one option (i.e. selling this car).

I bought it because I loved the 8 on release in the early 2000s and couldn't afford one then. Having looked for a good...

Has anyone painted their intake manifold a different colour? Please share pics if you have. I'm looking for ideas and some inspiration.

First of all, I would like to apologize for the incredibly stupid question, but I have clue where this wire is. It comes up as light green on the driver side kick panel on all the forums online, but I'm not sure if I got the right one and I'm unsure on how to test a negative polarity wire. Please...

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...

I was just tipped off about this JDM gathering

If your membership has lapsed then you can renew at any time and it is not necessary to pay for the missing days/months/years.

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.
