    MN Mazda Spotted thread

    Waved to some deuche-cunt in a 2nd gen red MS3 at about 6:15pm, April 5, on 94 headed West right next to 3M HQs. He turned his nose up at me and sped away. Perhaps because I didn't have a hood scoop on my car he was moar bettar than me?

    Oil Catch Cans?

    I went on Summit Racing's website and they were $83 and higher... Is anybody running with an OCC that they would recommend?

    Oil Catch Cans?

    Not looking for anything in particular. Definitely not going to build one on my own. I just want to buy it, install it, and not worry about it....until I have to empty it. I saw TurboXS has one for about $75. That's the cheapest I could find, but I'm doubting that it's on par with others.

    Oil Catch Cans?

    I'm looking to get a catch can...any suggestions? I feel like every manufacturer has a universal OCC, so I want to make sure that I buy a high quality product. Figured some of you guys on here would be able to point me in the right direction. Any help is MUCH appreciated! Thanks! ~DirtyD

    HELP! 17mm LCA bolt is effing me over!

    HELP! 17mm LCA bolt is effing me over!

    How much would it cost me to go to him? I saw you and Tom recommended him on another thread. Seems like he works on all the fun cars!

    HELP! 17mm LCA bolt is effing me over!

    True. I would feel even more sick to my stomach if I was the reason they were stuck together and botched up everything. What are your opinions as far as alignment goes after the install is complete? Should I get it done right away, or wait a week or so for the suspension to settle before I...

    HELP! 17mm LCA bolt is effing me over!

    Walser just called me back. They said they've never seen that bolt and bushing get molded together like they are. They're replacing the LCA (at charge, of course it was expected). Then, they're going to do the full install, which I should have just done in the first place. Going to cost me...

    HELP! 17mm LCA bolt is effing me over!

    Yup....FUBAR. Thats why the car is now at Walser Mazda. Any of you guys put on new fatcat bumpstops on the rears? Am I supposed to glue them to the inside of the upper bracket, and then jam the dust boot onto the first lip of the bumpstop?

    HELP! 17mm LCA bolt is effing me over!

    This is the bolt that is jacking me over. Tried hitting it with a screwdriver and that didn't pop the bolt out. Its just spinning freely, but held in there by the bushing. http://www.minnesotamenoutdoors.com/044.JPG Any remedies?

    HELP! 17mm LCA bolt is effing me over!

    Its stuck in there because of some rubber gasket or something, and its bending the frame its in. Now, I can twist the bolt either way, and the bolt doesn't come out or go in. What the heck am I supposed to do?

    MN Mazda Spotted thread

    Gray MS6 in Bloomington yesterday at about 6:25am. Followed me from 86th, to Penn, and then onto 494. Passed me on 494 in the left lane. Was that anybody on here? Car looked stock.

    Suspension Upgrade Needed!

    Yeah, but it says they are made to adjust for lowered speed3s so I figure they'll be okay. I already have some negative camber right now in the rear so I'm not too worried. Unless its like balls out negative camber. Then I'll be a sick puppy.

    Suspension Upgrade Needed!

    Yeah, its a gamble. I've ordered some parts from them in the past via their website, and I got the parts pretty quick. I've also ordered parts through that CaptainKEN character or whatever the hell his name is on mazdas247 and it took a month to get them. I have my fingers crossed that as...

    Yup, gotta order two of those. I just wanted to find links to the correct parts. Thanks for all the help man! I was reading over your how-to's and they are super comprehensive. Which is exactly what I need. Now, I just need to get the parts and get it done.

    Thanks! I'm assuming camber arms are the same as the front/rear end links? Any suggestions on brands?
