I saw those on amazon... they come with some crappy ceramic pads too... they look like typical painted china rotors.
Their claim that drilled holes dissipate heat is sad... more like more prone to...
Purpose of your post? Because useful?
I replace my rotors and pads every year. Slotted rotors work well with HP+ pads, while blanks have always started glazing and picking up debris then ruining...
From rockauto I can get sltoted stoptechs to my door (everything included) for 289.98CAD... TM3 asked 340CAD I am assuming 340 cash or otherwise plus tax... that's way too much..
Rockauto wants 100 dollar for shipping.. over my dead body.... so where can i find some slotted rotors? Or whatever there is...
I need to replace mine so I was looking at this, anyone got em on their car?
...
I'm curious, since I'm the one that even posted these lol where can one get these?
nope just the block and sensors, reused 2.3 oil pan, crank sensor and intake manifold
So here's the issues I'm having I have a header so o2 comes up, but I'm hoping an o2 extender will fix that.
The issue I am having with however is the other two codes, the intake manifold runner...
Just an updated as mentioned by a few posts above, you keep the 5spd linkage and it works just fine however going into gears is iffy... going from 3rd to second if i wana heel & toe into a corner its...
This is what's confusing me bro, so i just use the 5spd linkage and the shifter will shift in six speeds with the reverse working just fine too??
I'm also not sure what the push down is as I...
Did you get to get the intake to work, when i first did it 2 years ago, we were unable to get the intake to work, engine wouldn't fire up. We had to reuse the 2.3 intake. I was just fed up and wanted...

so other than the tranny being all bolt on.
What about the linkage? I mean if we get the tranny... how will that work with the 5 speed shift linkage vs the gen 2 6 speed linkage?? That's the only...
It came from the dealership with a carb legal mazdaspeed accessory exhaust and CAI. I guess I should be blamed for that one too now huh.
Anyways I'm not blaming the car for the 3rd engine failure,...
And oh look yet again mazda getting a file action suit against it's poor engines:

Great brand!

When you buy a car with around 100k you expect it to last you another 150k not blow on you after 20k like it did for me...
Hey 'asshat' right back at you.
Maybe your POS mazda engines are garbage I'm sorry that hurt your attachment to the brand.
Everyone on here swore they are the best thing ever and that I was...
welcome to the club i was the first to do this a while ago in canada with some help from miata guys.
The 2.3 engine is trash and yes older but more expensive. I went through two until i did some...
I've been told that another weak aspect of the gen 1 is the 5spd tranny, the 3rd gear. Sure enough when I swapped in the 2.5 which is a bit more torquey it didn't take too long for the third gear to...
I took the right lane which was the deepest. Couldn't tell how deep it was. Right before the bridge and after the road is waterless and clear. It's just the dip in the road under the bridge.

Don't be a f'n moron, if you got nothing good to say then be quiet.
This car is a piece of shit. 2.3 engines burn oil and die. This has been established by now even though a bunch of idiots on...
It wasn't very visible there was a huge line up of cars, hence three of us got stranded, it was just too late and i was stuck in the middle of the traffic and just kept following some were going...
The road design is tilted and caved in so it accumulated water. The road also had no side drains. How is this not the city's fault? Poorly designed road.
Few years ago in Etobicoke I had to spend...
So I wonder if I could take this to city hall to pay for me... considering it's not my fault that the road was garbage.
It happened to me on royal windsor drive, heavy rainfall today. Two others...
