WRX USA Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 What turbo did you last run/are running? Fuel mods? VF46 -> JMP Custom VF52 -> AVO380 -> (DOM1.5XTR) ID1000s and DW300c, and I'm thinking about IAG fuel rails/lines and an STi FPR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xt2005bonbon Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 to cBax: Apparently yes. I've read from the interwebs that some people with auto trans have been complaining about vibration while idling when they replaced their cv axles with reman ones. The guy who posted that earlier talked about this very issue in the comments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kzr750r1 Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 Dropped the last of the Chevron Supreme this weekend. Feels nice to be running T6 again. Also picked up a six pack of the Mazda filters. Good to go for a little while again. Looking forward to a new tune revision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xt2005bonbon Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 Mazda filters? Same as oem but cheaper? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhitter Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 They are tokyo roki filters. They are bigger than OEM. http://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php/mazda-rx-8-tokyo-roki-oil-filter-2-5gt-147113.html Anyone know if there is a gasket that goes between the lower coolant hose and the water pump?

kzr750r1 Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 Talking about sealing the snout? If so no. The seal on the thermostat handles this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhitter Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 Talking about sealing the snout? If so no. The seal on the thermostat handles this. that's the one. Thanks!

cBax Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 to cBax: Apparently yes. I've read from the interwebs that some people with auto trans have been complaining about vibration while idling when they replaced their cv axles with reman ones. The guy who posted that earlier talked about this very issue in the comments. Ok. Vibes at idling due to a CV sounds odd. But I'll take away from it that maybe there is an issue with the axles. It does it every time pulling into my driveway turning left, right side click click, pop. And today, it sounds like a cv. Definitely cyclical with wheel rotation. Left side makes some noise, but not as bad as right. I got my old axles, may swap the right side and see if it changes. If so, I guess I'll buy some OEMs. On a lighter note, I installed a Kstech 73mm intake today. Whoooooooshpachoo! Still dialing it in, but feels and sounds awesome. There goes my gas mileage for the next month! Ha Need to grab a pump soon as well and still on the fence about DW vs Walbro.

If yes, then do that. But yeah, some people are skeptical about the fact that reman cv axles would cause vibration at idle on the auto subies. But apparently, it is true.

Flinkly Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 i detest reman axles. Raxles is the way to go, if you don't catch a torn boot super quick and get it fixed. OEM is $$$$$. too bad partsouq doesn't have any. * Build Thread * 26.53 MPG - 12 month Average * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xt2005bonbon Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 yeah. two weeks ago we were going camping. I started to see smoke coming out of the hood scoop. Pulled over. Yep, torn cv boot. Bought a new kit. 4 days later, put it on. As you said, catch it quick, get it fixed. 38$ shipped, oem boot on ebay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cBax Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 My left side was clicking a lot, so I changed both sides. No torn boots. but there is sign of previous axle grease on the right side. I figure if it changes in any way, then it definitely an axle. '05 Outback XT www.facebook.com/baxleysspeedshop www.baxleysspeedshop.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
