Road view. I know, I could have gone further .... I just didn't want to go off the end of the runway.

jens.....i'm pretty sure that the stock coolant temp gauge is located under the oil filter area. You should be able to find it. You'll need to wire it straight to the gauge cluster if you removed the whole harness. The same thing w/ the coolant level sensor on the coolant neck. When I installed the microtech on the fc, I left one of the three harnesses in the car and I was able to keep from having to run new wires everywhere. Might want to see if this is possible on the fd as well. Are your windshield wipers working? Cool vids.

Side fact: the Mazda manual *strongly* recommends you roll up your windows at speeds over 70mph hehe
As for me, I hit 140 a couple of times, and just hit 150 the other day on Rt. 50 East (after it comes outta DC, and goes up toward Annapolis).
XSTransAm, if you ever wanna see 167 again, lemme know...I'll join ya hehe There's this specific stretch on 50 East that's PERFECT. It's 100% perfectly flat, 5 lanes each way, concrete is very smooth, visibility is is well over 2 miles, and NO COPS

I've done 170ish on a long stretch of freeway.
I'm not really concerned with the stock coolant temp reading due to the fact it wasn't accurate to begin with. I just want to get the coolant level buzzer to work properly. Unfortunately, the wire broke off the sensor and the sensor seems to be stripped.
