Looks like a cheap s5 to me. If it is a 5 lug car the gearbox, brakes and rear end can make the money back in a part out.

Or we could use it for next years charity fund raiser .......... oops did I say that out loud?

This one would need Crit and Billys' help for the transmission to meet Holly's standards :

And ohh, red leather and a 13B:

At least you know I would not drive an automatic, even if it was given to me.

Congrats on the 250K miles Brett!

Holly it's time to get you an FB. Your post count is too low.

The FD was nice.



but an FB (or SA) would be better.

So tonight was a night...

Long story short, I was 2 miles away from home when a fuel line ruptured on me in a elementary school parking lot. I had to go get tools from home and get Collin (Acesanugal) to come help me with it all. We tore the whole dynamic chamber off and replaced the fuel line coming into the primary fuel rail in about 3 hours... Now, the car's finally home but it's still leaking a good bit o'fuel, and I guess I'm gonna have to get some new crush washers from Mazda when I go to get my thermostat. The sad thing is, I've been down in the rats nest 2 times prior to this to fix the same leak...

lol... Someone should call him and record the conversation Maybe we can do it at the next meet!

So I went outside today with my handy dandy 19 mil and tightened down on the banjo bolt (pd replaced) a little more. I didn't get crazy with it and use every muscle in my body to torque it down, I just gave it a few pulls, and when I started the car- whoo hoo no leaky fuel... I let it idle until it got to NOT and held the revs around 4K and it still didn't leak. I'm going to take it down the road and back in a little while and check it again afterwards. And Collin tried to tell me it was tight enough yesterday. I'm going to look into new crush washers though when I get another thermostat just to be safe. Hopefully the dang thing's done leaking.
