Someone said earlier on that steel tII threads are not oem. One of my jspec's has one could not believe the weight when I went to open it for the first time. It's also a factory auto turbo which I don't think u guys in the US got =D

It was probably Mazda punishing the buyer for wanting an automatic sports car

I am so tired of these questions.... Guys if you do this swap remember you need to change the air in your tires every 3,000 miles along with all the rest of the stuff people have been posting, noobs

I thought about doing this but I don't have the left hand metric adjustable wrench set to install most of that stuff, I don't know how you guys can afford those things.

The ****, theres no such thing as a muffler bearing.

Your problem lies in the vtec solenoid, its located directly under the 5th/6th port actuators on the Turbo II, just in front of the transfer case. Its only found on the R35 1992 model JDM cars though.

No, No, No, you have to turn your dipstick 1/4 turn on Tuesday afternoons so your fifth lugnut on your passenger side rear wheel gets calibrated and adjusts to the boost pressure on your front rotor!! But be carefull, if you do it wrong you might blow your motor!! Serious yo!!
