I know I’m mentally not right But won’t just shooting them solve a lot of issues – After all these guys get bail and are on the road the next day

Have to go in the same lines of RIPPER Im sure it’s a good oil as it’s got the credentials etc and adding to that we must be prod to have our own motor oil (Yes CPC too have their own brand) and as they say be lankan buy lankan and all the patriotic slogans Still u tend to have a tingling feeling – I’ve been using Castrol for over 10 years and now kind of bonded to it. My mechanic has a time with me as he’s pushing me to use Valvoline . I can’t say "Never" will use laugh as if the GOV decides to impose a superficial tax on imported motor oils where I can't simply afford it - then would have to look at Laugfs OOOOOOPPPPS have I said a stupid thing now – hope the Chinthana fellows don’t see this and get ideas

Well here goes U need to get a timing belt changed by 90k- which is going to set u back a min of Rs.15K using Original parts no compromising here OK BJ3 means 1300 cc may not be the best option as the weight to power ratio is not that great hence petrol consumption is not that good color & tyranny is your choice – Price – sounds good but since it’s a 1300cc mmmmm ????? Check if the air sensor has been fiddled with See if all maintenance records are there – if so good else the mileage could be fake or u never know Take the car for a check up – drop me a mail [email protected] and I’ll help u out LAST BUT NOT Least- Join the Mazda /Ford CLUB

Fully agree with you 'Supra_Natural' U claim to have driven a 323 But I cant seem to comprehend how the performance of a corolla & a 323 is similar in your opnion- unless u just basically drive the car - theres a BIG difference between driving casually and trashing the car- thats when the performance levels start to kick in and the 2 become evident. Agree with you on fuel – Maintenance is not expensive on Mazdas parts are actually cheaper than Toyotas eg mirrors Well resale value cant argue with u as I always say Sri Lankans (Most) only know 2 types cars Toyota & Nissan ( With respect to the 2 brands)

Now that would be a cool project – wish I can help and will definitely recommend a place if it’s Ok by the MODS. As at present I got a original woden Steering will with MMC logo if u need 1 Small request – pls don’t kill the original look as I’ve seen some been massacred whilst modifications have been done. Best wishes on the project

A fun rally would be good, as Prad mentioned the cars wont get hacked- not all of us want to hack the car – could be 1 reason people are not too keen to take part in events like last time eg. SandunJ – besides u need to have some basic skills in taking corners so people like him can’t take part due to the lack of skills or fear of the car been hacked Hence something more simple may be a good idea and all can join in - even a Tata

Agree with SL vehicles covered with stickers – However I wonder if there would be a legal issue I’ve seen a van (Near Mahatooms – colo 2) which has a cool paint basically I’ve seen Purple, blue & green depending on the angle u look at it – So what color do u put in the book ?????? In other countries I know that there is a ban on using this kind of paint - here in Banana Republic Besides we got bigger problems in the motoring scene -

Ya Ur right- Auto Mazda are not bad at all- My friends has driven both a Mazda auto & a corolla and said the pulling and performance in the Mazda is far more greater …. Over all the car is excellent- true a Corolla will do better on fuel but on the same angle VVT Mazda may also keep up with the figures in fuel consumption. I always argue with the fuel topic – My 2 cents are basically a car will need fuel to run – right Reasonable fuel consumption is Ok say 10 -11 Km per L in traffic Asking for anything above- well just buy a Maruti & avoid big flashy cars As they say U can’t have the cake and eat the cake ( I prefer the singhala version to this )

have not tried it yet but have a strong feeling it would be a MAZDA in front than a Toyota

Am I seeing things or does that say "GTR- Racing Oil'?????? DAM ?????? Are people sooooo daft ???? Specially the ones driving thse kind of auto's Could have understood it if it were 3 WHEELER DUDE
-
Well look at it this way ----- What would happen to you if u stood out in the sun & rain day after day ??? Same with a car- over time it’s going to lose the color, maybe corrode etc… I fully understand your SITU Y not go for a car cover (Good quality one) and try to wax your car at least once a month with a good wax . Also do periodic checks to see if there is water gathering in areas such as spare tyre area, the 2 sides at the rear etc. Good luck

That's good news and looks nice too. Does this mean we SL can now use these buses instead of importing them ??? One good thing is the headlights are at a lower level compared to the bloody TATA hence it' won't be so annoying when there's 1 behind u at night [/size] Cool chinthana paint scheme eh..???

Saw this last Friday near Apollo – nice number too pitty it’s wasted on that – ???? Trying to locate the guys Cus then I can give him TRD, NISMO, Mazdapseed and Rally art – to go with the GTR badge I got a ear full from my better half for commenting on the guys taste and the likes – simply put”it’s his money – let him do what he wants “ was her idea ( All makes sense I suppose) ahhhhhhhhhh

U can say that again…. The same thing happened at Nugegoda junc twice- best thing was once there was a cop and I was the first in line- ended up both of us looking at each other totally baffled …. Could Bruce Almighty be at work ??????

Held Need Some Infor On Glow Dials- White Dials For Mazda
mazdaspeed replied to mazdaspeed's question in General
Also looking out for the euro type head lamps.. Hay Ya that was the issue I had- all of them have left hand ones. If Udo come across some in Sing let me know the shop details and the cost pls. Ya the Euro lights are cool – U can get them darkened and it really cools hot – there was a site that showed you how to darken the lenses & even add angel eyes… http://www.themazdaforum.com/showthread.php?t=1095 It best for headlights like yours – the single light – Mine come in 2 parts- head & signal light are 2 different parts All the best -
In my opinion she’s LTTE supporter- basically her farther is an active member- she left the country when she was small and hence I don’t understand how she could even begin to talk about the shit – Just a spoiled brat She living in UK- having all the luxuries – can not talk about something that she does not know. There was blog where several people have opposed her music- If terrorism is banned - glorifying it should be banned as well. I was surprised to see Nat Geo featuring her – F*&king stupid…. I know a lot of youth these days are all in to hip hop and think it’s something IN – Well wake up man- don’t just support some ting because it’s cool- most local hippies don’t even know the meaning but start supporting just because it’s cool . Well hate to see an SL follow MIA – that’s basically treason

Held Need Some Infor On Glow Dials- White Dials For Mazda

Sorryyyyyy my bad the K has dropped out -
Hi Guys, I’ve been hunting for this item over the internet – they (e-bay) have the left hand dials but not the right hand. Basically can any 1 tell me who can get down glow dials or even if there is a local guy who can make them. ? Basically a white dial instead of the stock black ones- I’ve seen some kits her but not for a Mazda I’ve heard a certain parts guys has it but the cost is pretty high. This is for a Mazda 323 YOM 2000 Manual Transmission 220 Mph With rev counter Can send a pic of the meter board if needed Hay Would be wiling to exchange with some 1 for a fair amount

When I say this I mean no disrespect to the 2 brands Basically tell the some 1 who told u - that there are other brands of cars such as Honda , Mazda, Ford, Subaru, Hyundai, Kia and the list goes on…… This has been discussed may a times- Basically are u looking at saving fuel or a sporty look?. Sporty & Saving fuel do NO go hand in hand most times hence u need to make a call. Does the company pay for your fuel or do u have to pocket it ? What’s the general purpose of the car – daily travel or occasional drive on weekends ? Brand new would be difficult to get for 12Lks. Hence used cars would always have an issue somewhere down the line – that’s how life is

I really don’t understand Y people like to take risks with things like mounts, brake parts timing belts etc. As another member has put it – replacing with originals is ALWAYS THE 1st option. Replacing a door with a recon is fine. Can understand if you can’t find the part which is highly unlikely for a Carina. Y may save a few bucks but then look at all the trouble u ahve to go through to repalce the others and the time - is it worth it ?

Looks like you’ve been having some nice drives - Lucky you The foggy drive seems to be good but U better have some fogs – went to Ohoyia with some friends – took the wrong turn and ended up in worlds end – good thing we had fogs – just could not see more than 10ft ahead. Any idea of a canopy ?
