Not wanting to derail any further,

Too late!



I bought the 12v version and love the impacts. Smaller than the 18v systems but plenty of power to do most of the jobs I need them for.

I like that we just get the before. Glad the mini held up. Makes me feel better about my wife driving around in hers. Also happy it isn't an S.

some texas redneck posted:

A lot of rotaries require different plugs depending on where the plug is installed. They run a leading and trailing plug, so each rotor has 2 plugs.

AFAIK the only difference between the two plugs is the heat range, but that's enough to cause a plug to foul, and also enough to burn poo poo. Which would definitely explain much of the carbon.

I want to know what the gently caress they did to that poor turbo though. :stonk:

Awesome, thanks!

Nice visual guide of different FB/FC plug options: http://mazdatrix.com/ign-2.htm

Interesting to read up on that. I haven't spent a lot of time tuning or racing so that side of it is all new.

That Rivian is pretty loving cool.

But this is just awesome. I'd rather have an electric van with solar and everything on the inside, but that is such a cool looking idea.

Just saw a pristine white FD heading east on 18 from Lincoln City around 12-1pm and figured I saw Spyder in the wild.
