I was under the car on the weekend and got a little surprise. Ive owned the car for 2.5 yers now and only just noticed that I have a JIC front swaybar. I knew i had the rear one as its adustable and looks aftermaket, so it was a bit of surpised to find one on the front too Even more so as its nothing much to look at and i was considering swapping the front for a new one anyway as its a bit spongy.

So what parts have surprised you? What has a previous owner installed on your car that you didnt know about?

Well not on my car at all... Was working at a garage for a while and a taxi came in complaining that the engine was knocking and felt odd.

He only had 1 engine mount.... Save weight?

back OT: not sure if this counts but previous owner told me i had apexi BOV, one day i finally figured out where/what my BOV looked like and realised it's a blitz. seems like previous owner had a thing with blitz, other parts are blitz too.

    • So today I went well outside my comfort zone (again) to replace my valve cover gasket.  I have had a big leak over the exhaust leading to a lot of smoke and smell every time I drove it. The leak was in the rear driver's corner.  The job wasn't hard as such, just a bit finicky and time consuming.  The old gasket was rock hard and broken right where the leak was.  The leaky corner had so much sitting oil in it.  The good news to my amateur eyes was no buildup or sludge under the cover. It all looked fairly nice in there.   I haven't started it yet. I ran out of light and body when putting the coils and injector loom back in. Probs only 30min left for the morning.  I was so nervous putting the cover back on, I must have lifted it 5 times to make sure the gasket was still seated properly. God it's going to be nice to be leak free and not make other traffic light queuers think my car is about to explode.
    • Gave the Mazda it's first wash, it will need some clay, a light compound, and polish polish to remove a few swirl marks, but that will be a job for when I have a full day to get my DA polisher action on
    • Just did this job on my 32 with the boost doc kit. was quite simple to fit, hardest part was getting the rubber bungs back on the firewall. does anyone know how the heater will work now without the flap in the bend? Will I just have a heater on 24/7 now?
