  1. As a VI with my own IO, I can confirm this is absolutely 100% true. I've also heard that you can't have them certified with OE turbos now too, so guess you've got no real option.
  2. Can confirm Link and big single turbo are an excellent choice, do try it.
  3. Well it's partially because FDs are so well supported by the aftermarket, there are at least 15 variants of any type of bolt on you can think of, so it's ridiculously easy to buy for. Kit looks like an early Mazdaspeed kit, with a Jun bonnet?
  4. Love all the Mazdaspeed bits on it, good score. FD's are the best, I'll fight anyone who says otherwise
  5. Late to the party, but I now run my own little after hours workshop in Upper Hutt, do WOF's and am less aggressive toward old cars... Also interesting you had issues there - I've known the owner for ages, he's usually pretty chill
  6. Bloody rotary owners, always selling shady crap haha. I guess lots of that can be put down to peoples skill level - what they think is ok often turns out to be subpar at best.
  7. Is Matt building your motor?
  8. Buy one, grenade, claim warranty, repeat?
  9. The torch section is a bunch bigger than the factory flare, so I think it's pushing it outward a bit? I did move it for the pic though so could just be that. I do have an OE flare if you're feeling brave!
  10. I got one of these from a compliance centre customer fages back, could likely get more if you wanted one?
  11. Is this going to be a case of buying a parts car that's too good to wreck so becomes a second project car?
  12. If its auto, it might be a dick to line up the torque converter when you reinstall it (unless you're taking the box out after?). If you've got big axle stands, they'll make your life way easier than ramps!
  13. I do love how much effort you put into a door handle! I'm expecting similar amounts of OCD in the engine itself too thanks
  14. Under 10v at the battery would suggest it's shagged. Follow piazzanoobs advice too, but most likely just wang a new battery in it.
  15. Nah owned it well before the days of cheap digital cameras, let alone cell phones, but honestly nearly identical exterior-wise. From super vague memory it had conventional door mounted mirrors though.
