    Hey guys. Yeah, I won't be attending. I have to try and take care of a few things here at the house and then get my NB ready for the Gap. I wish I could make it but it looks like you guys will be elbow deep in some good maintenance fun.

    So, look what I dusted off late tonight.

    Before:



    After:



    I forgot how loose and worn out everything in this car was. The shifter, clutch, steering, suspension, and brakes all need to be gone through. Also, I noticed it was over heating by the time I got back to the shop with it. So, hoping it just needs a flush and maybe a thermostat (as it has never overheated before). Hopefully I didn't hurt the car in my foolishness and giddy of hearing the turbo spooling (and "testing" the LSD).

    Still, I should really get around to doing stuff on it. Such a fun car.

    well me being stupid and not thinking about the time, forgot to leave for mazda a while ago to get an oil filter and the parts store closes at 6 so i guess i will just wait to pick up everything tomorrow since Walmart is right there and their oil is only 25 bucks for 5 quarts.

    If you're OK with spending about $13 on an oil filter, I've had good results from Mobil's M108.
