It is the decision of MNAO Parts Manager not to stock parts, not Japan.

Crikey, they don't even stock parts for S2's, they list 'a price', but they don't stock the part.

One has to "wait" for them to get it from Japan....don't you Paul...speaking of waiting.

BTW: Thanks again Paul for (not) getting back to me about a price, gee you give me rotten service...Don't worry I went elsewhere.

It would help if I had all that mentioned on my website and did proper advertizing but, soon enough. Change is coming.

Think of it this way

We see what the mazda engineers dont/cant see, just think of how many **** we caught at s1, they probably read it and like hey, its true that this part is not so good, then they turn around and fix it.

We need them, they need us(and we pay for their salaries too!)

Win win situation hahahaha

Rotary owners show Mazda engine designers what is possible when passing emissions isn't an issue!

Yes, that is correct. Ajax I believe. He was in for a 3rd or 4th transmission failure, and they ended up voiding his warranty based on a vague "you posted that you exceeded 100mph on RX8Club forum"

BS excuse, but yeah, they went looking for owner abuse and came here.

wow, that's crazy using the forum to do detective work in order to deny a warranty claim.

It was his 3rd or 4th transmission failure, so yeah, I'd personally say that they had cause to go digging for answers. What they used was completely inappropriate, but it gave them the legal grounds needed.

I remember, lol

I don't do 100 mph ... PLEASE DO NOT VOID MY WARRANTY !!!!

do I even have any left? oh yes, the engine ... well if it dies again and they deny it for whatever reason, not a big deal. I have my buddy Paul @ Mazmart, I'm sure the engine he sells is 100 times better than Mazda's GOD FORSAKEN REMAN!

So Mazda did listen to some of the issues you guys began identifying here back in those days. That's interesting.

They probably don't listen much anymore with all the bs that goes on at times around here

What bs? U mean vtec didnt kickED iN y0?



Well joke aside, there is no point for them to listen anymore cuz most b2b warranty is already out. Even if they have a problem, unless is something dead serious they dont have to issue fix anymore.


Ask fc guys how many s4s caught an engine fire cuz the pathetic pd they have?

Mazda knows the problem long *** time ago, updated the part on s5, but never issue any recalls or anything on the s4, cuz hey, u suppose to watch over ur fuel rack for leaks all the time, even its really a design fault
