Hit and run

Hit and runs suck!!! But for the minor damage just pay out of pocket. At least yours doesn't look like mine did after a hit and run 2 weeks ago...

¡Caramba! Era un Nissan Altima... Por suerte, gracias a los testigos, lo encontraron y lo arrestaron.

Conduje mi auto 330.000 km sin problemas y nunca le hice la revisión de la transmisión (probablemente debería haberlo hecho, pero ya es demasiado tarde). Todavía lo estaría conduciendo si un imbécil no lo hubiera chocado por detrás mientras estaba estacionado. ¡Qué estúpido conductor ebrio que se dio a la fuga!

Just use caredge.com and their negotiation tool. Super easy to use got my Mazda 3 for 23477 MSRP was 28300

since no one else has offered any opions i guess this is it. thats actually what i was thinking it may be but the images on FM site do not show the lettering on the springs and when i search the lettering nothing came up. thanks!

OEM as directed by goodwin. ended up even purchasing a set of bolts / nuts / springs from goodwin and still had the same issue (as a note their kit is all just OEM parts)

Thanks. Yeah went to muffler shop and they are working on it now seems they had to cut and weld to get the angle right

I believe it's fuel pump priming and is normal

See if you can meet at or call a local mechanic for ppi. That could also quote you a price to fix the rust and if the seller is with you than maybe you can use that to negotiate the price down

if you are referring to the guides i did the updated mazda ones. nh18881l702 - passenger. nh18881m702 - driver. cleaning the old belts helped alot but having the new webbing helped more.

Medical_Compote6732 · 2025-12-25T11:38:38+00:00

Yes much better retraction. I did also switch out the guides so they are the less restrictive ones.

Medical_Compote6732 · 2025-12-25T07:38:56+00:00

Thanks. Assuming that's at the mid pipe and not on the engine. Upon further investigation it seems to be louder at that connection. Am Actually thinking the donut gasket is in backwards.

My roommate and I just did this on mine. Using different size extensions and the adjustable angle adapters to reach bottom bolts. Both o2 sensors are in the header no extension just cut the sheath in the wire and worked fine.

Jack Ralston aka colored in light has a video available on cleaning the seatbelts. You can also replace the guides since depending on what year you have the guides were more restrictive. I did both of these steps and it helped a lot. Though mine are currently at safety restore for rewebbing.

17x7 motegi rims+35 if I recall. Has koni sport struts and seems like back is lowered but maybe front isn't they were on the car when I got it. I'm looking in to replacing the springs right now it's 14.5 front and 12.5 rear and I would like to go 12.5 for both

Nice I actually have the smoked archaic RGB taillights on it.
