and as I'm going to drive occasionally, not a sponge cake to drive.

I've driven a mazda 3 a few times, and my mum's got a mazda 6 hatch... the 6 is very spongy, so much body roll it is scary... and for a car that large, you'd think that it should be able to overtake a car doing 90 in a 100 zone even when carrying 3 passengers, but it just does not accelerate at all when you want/need it to at those speeds.

But what about a cupcake?

yeah the new one is meant o be an improvement in ride.

that said it's prob last on the list. but does have a lot of fruit for the price..

It has a 20/25 rear timing cover and a tiny single turbo, I'm guessing it's just a 20 with 26 covers and adapter plates for the 26 cold side. It also looks like absolute shit and I don't see things going well for that CAS loom being so close to both the aux belt and the timing belt

need to repalce Katies Mazda.

short list:

Mazda6

Golf GTI

RR evoke

X1

Say no to X1, money better spent on evoque other than BMWs optional a list.

GTI always seemed a decent buy, but everyone has one... but same with Mazda 3.

Glad you had fun in the car. look forward to upsetting BMWs, subarus and evo's soon. 160kw just doesn't cut it

Crashed into a pedestrian in amusing circumstances (the guy is ok so I don't feel bad)

so in your professional opinion, dead is considered "ok" is it Dr Samartgis?

That's how the engine produces the torque to move the car

Minister of anti RB20 propaganda... I reckon you and Brisby will get in a punch-on oneday :P

Literally the only thing I don't shudder at in this engine bay is the rocker and valley covers being painted

so RB26 ITB's retrofitted to a 20 does nothing for you? or gate through bonnet?

That ain't a rb20, Looks like a gtr engine.

you idiot...

Are ur gears short leeroy? Or they like the rwd sr20's?

How much your car weigh?

yeah they're close ratio.

want to get it weighed, just waiting on friend to receive keys to access vicroads weigh bridges. but i reckon 50-100kg heavier than stock so mebe 1200kg?

Wasn't aware Rb26 rocker covers would fit on a rb20. Also appears to be running gtr injectors too.

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
