Don't lump me in with them. I'm an enthusiast of mechanic design, be it engines, weaponry, or productive machinery. Not a guy with a wrench that reads the marketing garbage AFE/insert other "enthusiast" brand that can't legally warranty half of their products.

 

I fail to see a correlation between people screeching variations of "forced induction is more efficient!!! Reclaimed energy!!!" and anything I've said.

If you can't be civil. Please leave

 

Edit. That goes for everyone in the thread

Any Mazda nerds here? I just noticed a sticker on the hood, I don't know what authorized modifications could have been needed to been done, any help? I have no idea on any of the service history, though lots of parts have newer dates than the car was made.

TSB usually stands for technical service bulletin, ie a recall.

Google the part number

*edit*

Now, can anyone tell me this if they know. Was it possible to get a 4Runner from 1996-2002 with 4 wheel drive but not have the display for the wheels in the gauges.

 

For example:

Example with the display

My 98 626 has a similar sticker, same deal, some kind of emissions recall I believe? More recently I got a new ignition switch under recall which was weird cause the car is so old but hey free parts!

Well the first two in your post have the 4wd shifter but no display in the gauge cluster so I don’t know what you mean. Its not gonna have the shifter for the 4wd if its rwd only

I was just asking like why they’d have the shifter but not the display.

Different trim levels? Some might have ‘full time 4wd’ which means its a center diff instead of a transfer case. Others might have normal 4wd. 

They had that on 4runners? Awd?

having a good looking alfa is like being married to a supermodel whos in a vegetative state and has std`s. nice looking but useless and a constant expense.

hey, the JTD engines are actually good and make the car usable ... would be more of a cripple than in a vegetative state with std  ?

Well my car at just over 64,500 miles on thursday night was hit and run. The drivers side of my car is going to need paint, new mirror and new front fender. I was going through  a green light when an early 2000s Lexus SUV decided it was time to turn left. There was no cars behind or in front of me so I don't get why the car went then.

I'm actually thinking of getting my wife one of these - she's pretty short (155 cm), so she doesn't comfortably fit on larger, new bikes.
Have you ridden one of these older CBX's, and any opinions?

Hi guys. Don't think I've actually posted any pictures of my car here since I got it. 

 

Just had its first clean in a while, so thought I'd share it now. (lovely mess around the car from cleaning. Meaning to actually take some good photos at some point)

I have a friend with a diesel 335d. 180K miles on it with no major issues from what he's told me. At stock they're faster than the 335i as well.
