Just thought i would post a journal in the life of a FD owner. I encourage every mazda to do the same. this is more for me than anything, just to have a reference point to go back to.

Wed May 3rd: Just got back from a week long cruise in the bahamas (much needed) took the FD out today since the trooper was in the shop for warranty work. Felt good being in the car again, heard a flubber type noise after i would spool up. checked with my mechanic and its probably a hose came undone. Witnessed a turbo'ed VW spank a modded Accord on the way home. I dropped into 3rd to get the bov going as i passed the VW. at the light he pulled up and asked some questions and told me i should come out the BP on pleasant hill on saturdays. told him i will see him around.
