    The only way you can fail is if they do reset the ECU and see that most readiness are set ( to pass) .

    Got my car back from my mechanic yesterday. Rotten PCV system replaced (it was so rotten I couldnt remove it from the engine in a few spots), he replaced the n249 hose I accidentally broke while trying to replace PCV, repaired the SAI hose I broke with some heat shrinks, replaced driver side window motor, fixed both my knock sensors, and my car drives better than ever. Feels good having a 225t. You all who started out with the k04s are lucky

    Changed the oil in my sister's Mazda CX-7, and installing my inline air filter to my brake booster tomorrow.

    Timing belt, again. I also discovered the reason my front suspension has been so noisy is because the front sway bushings are gone. Time to figure out a quick solution to last until suspension later this year...

    So I need some input... getting bored of my 225 motor. Wanted to do something cool with the car. Looking into a r32 motor and trans. Anyone know if the TT drive shaft will bolt to an R trans? Assuming the haldex units are similar. Anyone have any experience?

    Yep planning to do it within the week, screw waiting...also, the Gates blue timing belt I used whines like a supercharger, and after research its either normal, or the manual tensioner I used is too tight. I'll give it a week to break in and see what happens about the noise, I may have to adjust the 9a tensioner if it persists...(which means taking half that **** apart again )

    @ SteveAngry:
    Thanks! Yes, OSIR lip..I lucked out, bought it used but in great condition.
    Just sanded and painted Nimbus gray. Finish is decent.
    Fit is great actually, you can pretty much just snap it over the bumper and you are good to go!
