I got the rear fixed a while back and just replaced it with a mazdaspeed rear (again!). Its just painted black at this stage, but will be red and gunmetal soon enough.

The part it replaces is the long elephant nose shaved VFAD. basically its a variable duct that opens and closes depending on how high your revs are. This Odula Ram intake replaces that and keeps it in the ON position all the time.

They are 18 x 9.0 +30

Its at the lowest it can be at the moment (10cm from the lowest point). any more and I would have SERIOUS scraping issues.

The endlinks are an Agency Power item. USDM Yo!

They are very solid and are the prefect accompaniment to the Cusco swaybars.






I just installed my Denso Iridium plugs from the groupbuy (thanks Andy!) and to top it off, I also installed the RE-Amemiya spark plug wires. I need to do a coolant purge. I think I have some air in the system. Oh and I need to get an oil catch can. I opened up my intake and found a LOT of oil in there so thats the next thing on the list!

It turned out there was a hole in one of the tyre sidewalls and I have to get a new tyre...I'll have to order a new one on monday.


Thanks for all the comments guys! Your feedback is all appreciated!

I just did most of it myself! Oh and I also did an oil change with fresh royal purple 10w30 and a GReddy Oil Filter.

Money? I was involved in a large incident near the end of my shift on New Years day and a spare set of hands were required and overtime incurred.

Gravy Train! Woo Woo!! Chugga Chugga Chugga Chugga! Woo Woo!!
