definitely will do.
no more stupid toe and camber.
this side could probably use one turn back in.
and just a side shot for shits and giggles.

its here!
what its looks like when done. this is on the guys trans that made it for me.
and i took it out for a quick ride around the block. its got a pretty bad vibration coming from what feels like the front left. im hoping its a shot wheel bearing.
but i did give it a little juice. 1st is useless, granny shifted and spun again. feels soo good. lol

wait... did u put that bracket in then drive?
So, that's why you called at almost 12 o'clock? LOL. Congrats man, I'll come check it out tomorrow. I was busy today.

oh tonight? no i was calling to ask for logans number. joe(white s13) needs it. and thanks.
ive got to figure out the vibration though. i dont want to really dd it until its solved. ive got work tomorrow.![]()
i think that i might have figured out the vibration problem. i thought it was my wheel bearing but i asked around on another forum and i think it could be my axle binding up.
for those of you who dont remember this is what it looks like. squished.
i bought a kia sephia 1.8L BP axle off the forums. this axle is about an inch shorter but it supposed to have the same splines on both ends. an inch might not sound like much but could be all the difference! hopefully it fixes the problem!![]()
Raising it up doesn't help any? Thought you had ordered specially made axles?

not yet. im going to get it running with these "temporary axles" first. then i can drive it while i save up for a nice set. for it to work it would probably have to be higher than stock height and thats not going to happen. lol
well i will definitely let you guys know if it works out or not. if it still does it i probably have a shot wheel bearing.
im sure the bearings have seen better days, but as bad as it shakes, it has to be more than just the wheel bearings. they do have some side to side movement.
kick ass bracket.

woot! it works! no more vibration whatsoever. BUT, i have another issue. i was just driving after a little first gear fun when all of the sudden it started to miss. not to bad but when its under load i can hear/feel it. i immediately shut it off and coasted into my driveway. pulled the plugs and this is what i found. every single cylinder looks lean.
i really need to get the CEL hooked up so i know what codes im throwing. im thinking a bigger fuel pump might be in my future.
i just hope i didnt do any major damage. what do you think IA?
wow, number 6 wire was definitely just chilling on the trans.
so ive been breaking it in all day and so far no problems. been driving slow to let everything seal up. finally![]()
thanks. it feels good.
things left to do:
-CEL
-VC leak
-axle seal (could possibly be from a kia axle being in a mazda trans)
-alignment, possibly wheel bearings
-insurance. lol
thanks man. reps. its not a street monster but i think it will be able to hold its own now. its come a long way from 72 ft lbs of tq. lol
make sure you mount the harness on the firewall man, dont want it to burn up like mine did...lol
LMAO, before i went for the first drive i thought of you, and ziptied it to some misc brackets for the old a/c lines. its works for now.
so far about 3 trips of more than 10 minutes so im happy.
Hell yes! This is officially epic! Congrats dude!
Bozzio for president.
haha thanks man. i dont think my swap gets lots of attention on here but it feels good to see some appreciation.
now i need to sit down and figure out how much i have spent so far and still not done yet, lol
roughly 50 miles on the swap and no major problems! woot!
my ignition switch got stuck today though at the gas station so i took my column apart right there at the pump. talk about on site maintenance. lol
Any more pics?
Remember......... Do not sell the car LOL
Peek-a-boo mofucka what now?!
u gonna drive up to import alliance this weekend? it will be the ultimate test!
no. but im off tomorrow so i may throw some quick ones up. been driving around with no hood at the moment...what a ricer right? lol
i wouldnt get anywhere near what ive put into it if i did so i dont think i will. lol
im not that confident in it yet. im getting an alignment thursday if my paycheck goes through.
