^how's that Mazda?


Lightweight DS went on today, thanks Stephen! Feels great

 

I want one, how much was it?

 

There was a group buy in the v35 coupes and sedan facebook group, think we had about 20 orders..ended up being around 510 or 525 shipped. Normal price may be about 600

 

It takes off like 16 lbs right?

 

Somewhere around there, huge difference holding the two in your hands

 

Picked up another oem exhaust cause mine is destroyed from being so low, I'm looking for an hr y pipe from the 350 before I install it.. Anyone have one??

 

No we've all purchased bmw's

 

Bmw's suck!!

 

Ordered Apexi drop in filter to get rid of the k&n i'm sick of..raised rear up an inch to fix some scraping issues, and got oil changed...still running through oil, burned 2 quarts in 2500 miles

 

Got bored and hung out at shop today and then came home...making plans to replace slipping transmission

 

U gonna build yours or just replace it??

 

Leaning towards buying a low mileage oem due to the rebuild quotes i've gotten lol

 

Spend the money to rebuild, it's worth it in the long run. If you can't afford it, save up. You won't regret it

 

Know anywhere I can call? Appears to be a 1400 dollar job at the moment

 

$1400 for a rebuild on a used transmission. Are you just rebuilding the broken parts to get you back on the road or throwing in upgraded parts to take some abuse. New transmission will run you $2500 from the dealer and you might be able to find something around $2k-$2.2k if you dig around. If you are spending $1400 find out what all is being replaced and what sort of warranty it comes with. Maybe slap the transgo at this time to make it worth it. I am glad a factory fresh cd009 is only $1695 versus $2500 for AUTOTRAGIC.
