Re: Hoodzy's How To: Cold Air Intake

So I just did the CAI on my kl-de. But I noticed that there is not that many places the air gets into that space. Yes I know "search" but I couldnt find any info that I could find any use for. If you can just link instead of ripping my head off :oops: With that said, we have alot of rain w...

Re: ZE manifoild on an K8 enigne?

Well this sounds very nice I think. But I just read the worklog of a member on the norwegian mazda forum, his k8 tranny was shot and he went for the kl-de one. But they didnt match. The tranny went nice on the engine, but the internal connection did not fit. This was from an 626. But are the eletric...

Re: ZE manifoild on an K8 enigne?

Re: ZE manifoild on an K8 enigne?

Hmm, well depending on on what the salvage yards have lying around you might be right. But if I find a wrecked probe/mx6/626, it will be cheaper than buying the parts from a yard. Engine, tranny, engine munts, ecu, vaf, and drive shafts is at least 3000usd. And to import a ZE, customs will kill me. ...

Re: ZE manifoild on an K8 enigne?

Actually, Probe/Mx-6'ers running their stock DE's actually get a noticable different when putting a ZE intake manifold on, despite the mismatch. On a K8, I dont think anyone has tried a KL IM on it, I'd be curious to know what it does on a K8 When you say diference I asume you mean improvement? Wel...

Re: Pls help! Something is loose.

Well it seems that the rotor is warped. The wheel dont roll to good when raised, and when the wheel is of, the rotor "sticks" in some places when I turn it. Will know for sure when I get my discs. Just hope the hub is not busted. But could anyone tell me how the rotors suddenly gets warped...

Re: Pls help! Something is loose.

Will check if it spinning tomorrow, but there is no play at all when it is raised . If its the bearing I should have some play right? The steering tie rod is new. Was thinking it might be a worn or busted engine mount, but in that case it would be worse witjh high rpm right? I dont know what that fe...

Pls help! Something is loose.

When I jerk the left front wheel, I get a sort of screecing sound. Not the normal "klonk klonk" but something else. There is not much movement but when I raise the wheel of the ground there is no sound or movement what so ever. I think it started a few days ago, shaking when braking. But t...
