    Probably start by checking the vacuum tube coming from your intake manifold to the BPV itself and make sure the spring clamp is secure. It's worth noting that an aftermarket BPV doesn't really offer...

    If you have the stock airbox the install instructions for the JBR SSP say you have to raise it, made me think the same might occur even with an aftermarket airbox.

  3. Adapted Performance 'Shift Hammer' Short Shift Plate

    I toyed around with getting an SSP for ages, but I was always worried about the length of the ball stud making clearance issues with my CorkSport airbox (the JBR one for exmaple) or actually making...

    Swap out the oil for some Castrol Syntrans and then adjust your shifter cable following this guide (I moved it slightly up the shaft): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=duIbdq-MQtw

    I got the DBA T2 rotors with the Remsa pads. Nice setup and probably half the price of OEM but apparently the QFM pads produce less dust so I'll probably go for those next time. Got them off Brakes...

    Might be worthwhile checking all of your mounts. It might have just been a coincidence re: oil change and clunking. Failing that, drain it out and if something has let go, you should see glitter...

    Gen 1 or 2? I would check the oil level in the gearbox after you changed it and if it is OK, swap it out again for something that is full synthetic like Castrol Syntrans. Failing that, something...

    Timing chain I wouldn't have anyone do other than an actual Mazda dealer, or a shop that has done one successfully before on the MZR. Plenty of 'good' and 'performance' shops have blown motors...

    At $580 for just the fronts, you would have to be crazy to go with OEM. And as someone who has had both FSD and Bilstein B8, at this price point, Bilstein all the way. Ride isn't quite as good, but...

    It's been a pretty good resource for me for the last few years. The only suggestion would be for the 'What's New' link - to display threads that have been recently updated, rather than new individual...

    At least they troubleshooted it properly for you, which is getting disturbingly uncommon these days! But good outcome all the same.

    Not at all. You only really touch the down pipe and maybe mid pipe when installing a turbo I would imagine. The exhaust tips on my Gen 2 don't sit exactly the same either. Chances are, they were...

    Doubt that the exhaust tip is related (would just be a slightly stretched exhaust hanger up the back) and it seems like it is coming from the engine bay, but remember, sound can travel so best get...

    Yeah the old ones were gapped at 0.7mm and hadn't been in the car a huge length of time. It just seemed a bit co-incidental that all this happens after a normal plug swap. A station near by has...

    Inconsistant KR after plug swap

    Hi guys.

    So after having some NGK Iridium IX plugs installed by a shop and getting some misfiring and high KR, I ended up putting the old plugs back in myself (they looked pretty good) and doing...
