I second that, well once I am in PA. Once I move in I will have the tools and the garage to do work.

I am now bored.

dude, come..ill take a day off from work, i need to diagnose the rubbing (which I hear is normal even on stock MSMs), the strange vibrating I get at low RPM which could just be a vibrating heatshield or something of the likes, and I want to wire up HIDs with a relay but my battery is in the trunk and I wont run wires through the entire car. also I need to change my oil nad filter and I want to flush and fill the trans, diff, brake system if needed, clutch if needed and steering if needed.

Also I need to replace a shifter bushing but i gota take it apart nad see which one...im basically ****ting myself right now cause i bought a used car that i know nothing about and i want to get it all in good shape so a general tuneup...not knowing turbo cars doesnt help either

Well I just found on the mazda forums that the little vibration at idle is normal, but i am still pondering why it does it on startup and goes away after a certain RPM..i think im paranoid at this point.

Basically I have to do all the fluid flushing and filling and HID wiring..and im still deciding if I want to spend 550 dollars for the intake kit (granted that it apparently takes you from 155whp to 190whp)

I have a "little" vibration around 800-1200 that goes away (or gets blocked by engine noise).... old cars do that. and I am still bidding on a welder...hehe

Its not that I feel it..I can hear something. The guys on the mazdaspeed boards said that when you are in neutral with the clutch engaged its just the input shaft bearing and stuff moving around in the trans and its not a worry, im thinking this noise might be the same exact thing..or i hope

when are you free? i cleared a bit of space in the garage so I can nose the car in and have a nice cool workspace with little chairs and a stereo and stuff

im also debating whether to get a turbo XS RFL or not...
