Hey goesatonio. Just wondering about your exhaust. Did you put a wider extensions on or is
that a different rear box ? Was thinking of getting the wider exhaust extensions from Mazda just wondering if these are the ones?

Hey Warren.

The only modification I did in the exhaust is painting the muffler and the pipes in matte black. In the profile shot there is something in the wall beside the pipes that mades a extrange effect, that's maybe the reason you though I putted extensions.

IMO, the black mufflet looks great, now the rear looks cleaner, and the pipes seemed bigger. 8)

spent the weekend servicing the 5, oil and fuel filters changed, plugs done too.
changed the front and rear pads, front were handy, the rears took forever, they were siezed and while winding back the piston via the torc bolt, i wound it too far and heard a little clunk in the caliper, took the caliper off and opened it up to fix it,little circlip on the winder cog had popped of :x
the slider part of the calipers were siezed and inevitably while un-siezing i may have broke/ fractured my thumb :roll:
ive had an ongoing problem with a leaky rocker cover, so that came off and was cleaned and re-sealed.

My battery went dead while the car sat for 4 weeks, picked up an Optimate 4 from ebikes in Galway and stuck it on for 48 hours, its now back to life. Worth a look if in the market for one
Spec is here :
