Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in..

Hey everyone, new member but not new to Mazdas... I dabbled in the mazdaspeed protege and protege5 platforms. Messed with a few other cars and bikes, then came across this beautiful S5 FC vert. All stock with the exception of the pioneer head unit and missing catalytic converter lmao...but they left the rest of the stock exhaust. It's not running great right now and from what I've been reading, it looks like it might be the TPS... Anyways, looking forward to utilizing the forums to their full extent and enjoying this platform.

Only thing i know about it was older couple owned it in Oklahoma, guy in Louisiana bought it and rebuilt the engine, then the guy I got it from traded a bike for it from him and basically held on to it for a few months. It's all stock, no accident reports. That's about it.

That's honestly quite a bit of history! The people that owned the car definitely took good care of it!

In a perfect world I'd have a maintenance history but I can't complain. I'm still going to change all the fluids and get her running perfect.
