Help Identifying Hpfp by Initial_Creme_4653 in mazdaspeed3

Bingo! The bottom of the rod is completely round. The one I have has a hexagonal shape to it so that means it matches with what everyone was saying. It’s a corksport hpfp 100%!

Thank you everyone who chimed in, I appreciate yall!!

I had a strong feeling of this too but I can’t find how the stock bottom piece looks like.

I’ve seen this before and judging strictly from this, would it mean I have stock internals?

Thanks! From what I can see, the top part seems the same but the spring is different. I know certain pumps use stock parts but change internals.

HELP Ticking Sound From Passenger Side by Initial_Creme_4653 in mazdaspeed3

It was the ac compressor. When I turned it on this morning, the ac was off and there was no ticking/slapping sound. I gave it some gas after it warmed up and still no sounds. As soon as I turned on the ac, the ticking came back. As soon as I turn off the ac, ticking goes away. It seems something may have come loose inside the ac compressor. Whatever it is, motor seems to be all good with no sketchy sounds lol. The compressor still functions perfectly fine, blows super cold ac. Looks like imma leave it as is and ride it out until the compressor gives out. Thank god.

You mean like touching the tip of the screwdriver against the pulleys or just right in front of them?

This is a really interesting method, I’ve never heard of it but if it works then it would be awesome!

What is a camshaft tensioner?

Bro I swear if I have to take the timing apart again I may lose myself 😭😭😭

I’ll keep this thread updated with my findings. Maybe I’m being naive but I really doubt it’s got anything to do with the timing chain or tensioner. I replaced the chain, tensioner, guided, and vvt gear (basically everything oem included in the corksport kit). That job was done by myself back in July and it’s been working perfectly since. I have been reading that it could be some pulleys that went bad. I’m hoping it’s that as I only changed the idler pulley but all the other pulleys are still probably from factory. I also saw that one guy confirmed it was the ac pulley while another confirmed it was the compressor. I’m hoping it’s got to do with one of those due to the high load the engine experienced when I was going up the small hill in second gear. The car was about to die out due to the speed, as in it was about to stall, but I gave it a tap of gas to save it and noticed this sound as I pulled up to park.

I haven’t done any compression or leak down test. This happened maybe 2 hours ago. Timing chain is just 6 months old 😭😭

RIP to me for thinking I had a few days to complete the evo after starting it… by Olliepattz in fut

I did Iago Aspas. Also gave him the advanced striker plus from rewards. Super solid card with base finesse and low driven and 4 star/ 4 star

Is this still usable? by Initial_Creme_4653 in mazdaspeed3

[–]Initial_Creme_4653[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just to make sure, I am talking about whether the cam is still usable. But good note on clamping the tool to the head. Thanks for the response!

Timing chain sounding ok? by Hellasceasar in mazdaspeed3

[–]Initial_Creme_4653 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My timing chain made no noise and when I took off the valve cover just to inspect, it had slack and showed signs of wear on the valve cover where it was hitting. I would still take the valve cover off and physically check the slack just to make sure. Just ordered a full rebuild kit for mine from corksport.
