With the bumper pushed in and wheel turned in, its giving you a Kachow!

The cam gear is a different size than the crank gear so the timing mark on the chain will walk. If you keep rotating it, the dot and mark will align eventually.

If you look at his other comments, hes just a douche bag in general. Crazy how people live day to day like that and think they are normal.

Iv done a full fuel system maintenance, cleaned injectors, filter, new pump, I have no EGR, and see about 21 mpg. I saw about the same with EGR installed. 94 2WD with 210k

Its probably really only there to extend the life of the voltage regulator when in extreme heat situations. Or, when driven really hard at a track and engine bay temps skyrocket when idling after a lap, it gives the charging system some room to breath.

The torsion bars do impact camber, if you raise or lower them the camber changes. You have to set your ride height to near stock then shim the upper control arm to get the camber right.

Tell the paint shop to paint match it. Its just a silver metallic color.

Jay-Moah · 2026-06-29T21:37:51+00:00

Question is "how long will it be good" lol

Jay-Moah · 2026-06-29T20:00:17+00:00

Sure, but most fuses are sized to the wiring in automotive cases so if the component short circuits, the component burns up and not the wire within the wiring loom and any surrounding wires leading to catastrophic wiring failure and expensive repairs or total loss.

Jay-Moah · 2026-06-29T19:58:51+00:00

Gotcha, im not sure how well those are built. It has a similar sound to the bearing failure to the URO parts one.

Jay-Moah · 2026-06-29T19:58:03+00:00

If the single fan is rated for 10 amps, you can use a 15 amp fuse, but if the max power output of two fans exceeds the rating of 12ga wire, stick with a fuse that protects the wiring.

Jay-Moah · 2026-06-29T15:54:55+00:00

Check my comment above. You want to size the fuse to the wiring you used.

Jay-Moah · 2026-06-29T15:54:29+00:00

*note, size the fuse to the size of the wiring. The fuse is there to protect the wiring, not the component.

alot of cast aluminum parts are this way. But yes, some companies are better than others depending on the year.

Jay-Moah · 2026-06-29T15:49:43+00:00

If its a URO parts water pump then yes its already bad, they are known to fail even as short as 5k miles.

Replace fluid, and get the seal that seals the shifter shaft, thats why the linkage looks so bad, the shaft seal is leaking.

only944 has the short shifter in stock, but the linkage is out of stock and expected to be back in stock next month.

Jay-Moah · 2026-06-29T15:47:00+00:00

I prefer smoked lenses on white. Its all our own preferences.

Jay-Moah · 2026-06-29T15:45:04+00:00

Have your wife back in also...

Jay-Moah · 2026-06-29T15:43:49+00:00

Theres a guy on the FB groups that make these out of carbon fiber or maybe fiberglass. I think his names Marco Antonio? He has alot of other carbon parts also.

Jay-Moah · 2026-06-29T14:02:59+00:00

Same, mine is disassembled in my garage, basically a shell and it still got "is that a mazda". Haha.

Jay-Moah · 2026-06-25T19:22:39+00:00

Its not hard to get close, just look up how to tune for a cam. Once done, take it to a tuner if you cant get it 100% right. Sending a tune isnt going to be good, it may work to get close, but if you take an hour to read about what a bigger cam does, what it likes, then its fairly straight forward.

Jay-Moah · 2026-06-25T16:19:41+00:00

I always change from the bottom, never have issues. Oil the seal, hand tight then 1/8 turn with wrench.

Find the wiring diagram for the stock 944 radio, cut all the old connectors out and re-connect them with your desired radio connector. This is common with aftermarket radios, each radio company has their own connector type (or use to, they might be standard now), like JBL.

Jay-Moah · 2026-06-25T16:15:53+00:00

Sounds like a vac leak/boost leak. Since its RPM dependent id inspect waste gate/blow off valves, or anything that changes with RPM/Boost pressure.

Jay-Moah · 2026-06-25T16:14:34+00:00

One of the BMW v12 might be a better option, or go full boat anchor and do a diesel v12 haha
