2014 Mazda 3

Read a rumor that Mazda might announce a wider and longer MX5 variant with a Skyactiv NA V8 or twin turbo V6. Hmmm.. It's just a rumor or a Mazda fanboy dream.

why are you skipping the 2.5T? next evolution is most likely a skyactiv-g 2.5 twin turbo... not likely but i think thats their direction.

2.5T skyG & 2.0 SkyX engine options in the next 3!!!!
Fr Jalopnik:

"Automotive News Europe cited Mazda CEO Akira Marumoto as stating that the new Mazda 3 will get the 2.5-liter Skyactiv-G found in the current lineup, as well as the Skyactiv-X engine, which will be a 2.0-liter mild hybrid, and will “be positioned as the higher grade.” Marumoto also allegedly told the site that the Skyactiv-X-equipped car will have the same driving dynamics of the 2.5-liter, but it will offer the fuel economy of a 1.5-liter diesel.
“The arrival of all-new Mazda 3 marks the beginning of a whole new generation of Mazda cars,” Mazda says in its press release."

My battery is almost 3yrs old now, planning to change it with a higher cranking amp. Is that okay?

Did you disconnect your batt recently? If so, try the moonroof reset procedure.

Hmmm...what are you up to, sir?[emoji4] I only have the exhaust gasket (PN:P30213460) from some planned experiment & a stencil of the intake.

Mid 20s. A bit too early. US 87AKI is equivalent to 91RON here. The difference may be blend switching from summer to winter & additives, or lack of, w/ the different brands. MazdaPh specifically specified Shell, a Top Tier fuel, to every new Sky owner. Might be something there.
Also, the gen3 Sky 3s came 2years after the early Skyactivs, CX5s & M6s... Mazda may have done updates to address the build-up concerns...An issue anticipated & expected but yet unseen in gen3 Mown3r groups, local & outside. I'm familiar w/ a few well kept Skys to have clocked beyond 100k w/o build-up treatment done...yet.
Still, there will be no denying walnuts will be part of every DI engine's health regimen...later better than sooner.[emoji4]
