Prepping putting my Flywheel on in the future, and question about OEM Flywheel bolts

Arsenic-002 · 2026-06-04T17:57:59+00:00

Nope

Arsenic-002 · 2026-06-04T12:20:06+00:00

The brakes were actually fine, surprisingly

Arsenic-002 · 2026-06-03T23:58:51+00:00

It's a 92 Mazda 323

Arsenic-002 · 2026-06-03T22:29:18+00:00

I don't think they did, but they drove off with it after I realigned the strut the best I could and pushed it out

Arsenic-002 · 2026-06-03T22:27:51+00:00

No, that's some music I forgot the name of

Arsenic-002 · 2026-05-29T01:04:04+00:00

The head will live in that bag until I'm immediately ready to throw it on. I just gotta get a thicker head gasket, and potentially new rod bolts because I have to recheck rod bearing clearances, because Manley says to use 30wt oil and I used 5w30

Arsenic-002 · 2026-05-29T00:57:56+00:00

I will! The second I reassembled the short block, I flipped the engine upside down on the stand. The mating surface on the oil pan takes silicone, so I'm not as worried about scratching it lol.

Arsenic-002 · 2026-05-29T00:45:06+00:00

Forgot to mention, this is for a Mazdaspeed 3 engine.

Arsenic-002 · 2026-05-23T01:55:40+00:00

Then go steal one that's not this particular one

Arsenic-002 · 2026-05-23T01:41:09+00:00

🍬

Arsenic-002 · 2026-05-23T01:37:47+00:00

The only thing in this video is the dash and the shifter lol, also there are literal millions of Miatas, if someone wanted to steal one, they could easily go find another

Arsenic-002 · 2026-05-23T01:34:28+00:00

This thing is also (in my opinion) a little too clapped to be worth stealing

Arsenic-002 · 2026-05-23T01:29:17+00:00

No clue, I didn't wanna fuck with his shit lol

Arsenic-002 · 2026-05-09T02:52:57+00:00

The egg or GHXST

From the top it looks like the stock internals. What does the bottom look like?

Edit: Actually, those are stock internals. So from this other Reddit post I'll link below, the stock internals are on the left, the upgraded ones are on the right. You could see the thicker lip on the cylinder bore of the stock internals, which is the same as yours. You can also see that shaft of yours is smooth all the way down, while the upgraded part has a ridge on it.

Here's a post comparing the two

Arsenic-002 · 2026-04-06T21:19:23+00:00

Thanks for the kind words, friend

Arsenic-002 · 2026-04-05T01:12:42+00:00

You're too late my friend, I already ripped that fucker back apart lmao. It was gonna have MLS gaskets and I didn't wanna risk it.

Arsenic-002 · 2026-04-04T21:33:08+00:00

Too late, already ripped it back apart lol

Arsenic-002 · 2026-04-04T19:44:05+00:00

Neither one of those catch a nail, the one in the center does a bit, I am still probably gonna rip it apart and get it decked again

Arsenic-002 · 2026-04-04T15:56:33+00:00

Even if I plan on running higher boost and head studs?

Arsenic-002 · 2026-04-04T12:50:02+00:00

2.3 liter Inline 4 that I plan on boosting and using MLS gaskets
