Good to see Monty, Brian and a few new guys at Jenros tonight. Hope you make good use of that gear oil Monty!

Anyone know a company that makes brake pads with green colored backing? I cleaned off the rear calipers and noticed that my pads had "green backs"...

I'm in the middle of replacing my diff, but noticed that my (used) replacement front diff mount is cracked already. The one on the car was totally broken. Does anyone have a good one, or do I need to order it?

THanks

Monty,
The piece circled in green is what I need. The one pictured here has a crack in it already. If I were going to buy one new, I would get the performance (stiffer) one, which is $75 from Mazda Motorsports.

Juat thought I would share this with ya'll. I put the Rx4 in its first show yeaterday over in Newport News at the Neighborhood Dreamz carshow. I won first place out of six under-construction entires. Now mind you, most were Hondas. But I'll take the win none the less. Also, I won a NEW Flowmaster 40 series muffler. Happens to be the one I was going to get anyway. Dumb luck there. And I won several shirts, toys, and even a sheet and bedspread set. Sorry I wasn't up at Jenros, but I was tired from being in the sun all day and my bald *** head got a little red.

hey pete the guy that came over to get my car told me 200 or no so i stuck with no and am still parting it out. i can get you squared away with your differential part. all i really want is the clutch type lsd if i can swap it into my S5. i heard the S4 lsd is better. anything else you need let me know and i'll hook you up. give me a call or leave me a message.

Blue Angels Flying at Oceana Sept 9-10

I don't know if any of y'all are going, but the RRDI group is planning on driving up to Norfolk from Raleigh for the Air Show and Blue Angels performance the weekend of September 9-10. Probably come up on the 10th since some of our guys work on Saturday. Any body for HRRC gonna be there? I've seen the Thunderbirds fly several times but haven't been able to make it to a Blue Angels performance and this is the closest they get to Raleigh this year. Maybe we could meet for lunch somewhere before heading over to the Naval Air Station, or maybe y'all could meet us somewhere outside of Norfolk and escort us into town. We're planning on leaving Raleigh around 7:30 or 8:00 am.

when you get this part , take it somewhere and get some steel welded to it to re inforce it .

Good luck

ok. i need it to be as strong as possible until i can afford to get a nice 2 way. and i plan on doing new suspension and dtss eliminators and a front sway bar before that. thanks for the advice.

hey how much do you want to powder coat all four of my bbs rims. i know they arent wouldnt be the easiest rims to do haha. just let me know, i can get them off my car anytime and bring them by. and do you want the rims with no tires, or should i leave the tires on.

Thanks for the diff mount monty!

It took us 30 minutes to put her back together - drop subframe, install diff, bolt everything up, drive away. The 4.3 torsen adds a noticeable bit of wheel torque, and AWESOME drift control. I did a snap u-turn on the test drive, and was able to control the drift angle easily.

A whole bunch of us from Autocross.US are heading to Langley wednesday. Who else is heading that way?

i can try to go if my class gets out early like it did today. also guys i am officially up and running in a 7 again. i bought one of jerry's 79s, so if you see one running around (even though i probably wont drive it much) its most likely me.

and i will hopefully be running the autocross at pungo in my accord on sunday so wish me luck, my tires arent very grippy and my suspension is shot.
