Check your compression, and if its low it could be the cause of that. Get your injectors clean. The overheat problem could be numerous things, but I would check your radiator fluid, and maybe replace the thermostat with an OEM MAZDA one. Also if you car is modded pretty well, and your using the stock radiator it could be that.
