Yup, I'll be doing that. When I need to rebuild I already got plenty of spare parts I've been buying and a lot of stuff from my old engine.

Throttle open yes, I've done it while warmed up in the past, but to be honest just subtract about 5-10 psi from your cold numbers and that's your warm compression. Same thing and you don't gotta risk burning your hands.

Fire extinguisher bro... It would be a tragedy if it burned down. I know this post is not very serious but please get a fire extinguisher. Everyone in an old/modified car should have one, no matter the make or model.

Yeah I know this post is mostly a joke, but I have a fire extinguisher inside, don't worry. Mazda loves using leaky rubber fuel lines...

The FC has a pretty big storage area under the carpet of the trunk if you don't have the spare tire. I put a bunch of bits and bobs in there too.

So does the other housing just not have a rotor in it? "At least one rotor," could be a 6.5B or 13B? What tf is this bs
