idemitsu is some good stuff, i have used it since i got my motor in and it does not stink or smoke, its a clear oil and burns clean, not even had problems with the plugs fouling and i think the omp still works, its just not worth the risk, you never know when they want to go

 

Wow, I use Royal Purple Oil, tranny, and rear end

Plus some outboard motor 2 stroke...

I r horrible

 

Mix the premix with some of that lavender stuff Summit sells. Would the exhaust smell like lavender or will the rotary stink prevail? Find out next time!

 

if you are pre-mixing then you should be fine. my bad experiences with it are all in the Renesis engines.

Mazda did issue a TSB saying not to use any synthetics in the 13b. I personally use Valvoline durablend as it has rated higher than most synthetics that cost twice as much.

OR if not using synthetic i like Kendall GT-1.

I used to be a believer in Mobile 1 but never again

 

About the fuel filters, I said using regular engine oil for premix can mess with some filters. But since no one listens to me anyway...... O'well..... On a good note, I finished up editing my video from our little run Sunday . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bMO1X6hRfNg

 

Good vid sam

 

too bad my black s5 wasn't in the caravan. I will definitly be there in march. Unless I sell it. I had a guy offer me 3900 for it today. It was hard to say no.

 

nice vid Sam! You came up on me pretty fast on that first gear pull, lol!!

 

sweet vid!

 

I love how snappy the FB is at 10 psi. If I stab it from a stop, I'm worried about breaking stuff. I really need a good clutch! Then it's on like neck bone!

 

You sure can hear the spool too! Next time I will bring my camera and hopefully get some good vids for ya.

+1 on the video, end of the year we should make a video collage or something Haha.

 

i wish i had traction

 

Got an idea for your SA sam...

So what your saying is keep a can of gas with me? Just kidding. I saw that video a while back. That SA sounds like it has a Bridge Port.

 

exactly, gotta question for ya. I tried to do the flash to pass upgrade on my lights and it worked. then when i went to put it all back together it quit workin so i tore it back apart and tried somethin else and it didnt work so i took it out and now my headlights dont come on or pop up.......any ideas what i fucked up?

 

Hey Sam, can you mount the camcorder to face out the back window? It'd be cool to see a whole snake of cars running around.

 

Hey guys, Anuone drive a red FD in Charlotte? On my way to surgery on Tuesday morn, we saw a red FD(no wing stock body) rolling down 4th street towards town ( away from the presbyterioan hospital) Anyonwe on here?

 

You know......I've never thought of doing that. It would give a different perspective. I think it would be like riding in the back of my mom's '79 Plymouth Grand Fury station wagon that head the seat in the rear that faced backwards. Always made me car sick! I'll have to try it and see how it turns out. I don't know if it would cause a weird reflection being that close to the hatch. We shall see .

 

I've seen him driving around down here too. Tried to flag him down a couple times and no success. It's definitely a daily driver for somebody. I've also seen a stock looking MB FD a few times uptown.

 

so whens the next meet?

 

Pullapart has another one down there. Heres the results from the latest search:

I wonder when the Winston one will be opening up?

 

Next meet is March 9th. See my sig for time and place.

 

I took some shots of my engine bay since I added the fans, moved the alternator, deleted the AC and few other things.

Thought some folks might enjoy seeing whats been done so far.

I have more up on Flickr

 

So, Tim. Are you trying to compete with Ray on the cleanest engine bay? You know, before you started hanging out with us, you weren't really into doing all the mods. See what happens when you start hanging out with a buch of rough necks. Maybe that little ride in the Turbo FB will get you thinkng about hanging a little snail on the side of that engine next . I hope the next meet I'm not the only one with a video camera. I would love to get a couple of in car shots from different cars. That would be a killer video!

 

so i got the 13b tore down today and damn. the front rotor, rotor housing are beat all to hell. but the rear still looks like its brand new. no scarring or anything. im prolly going to buy 2 s4`s this evening that got rolled but still run for 350 bucks. so if anyone needs any parts start making a list and ill let you all know when and if i get the cars.
