2015 Mazda 2

[travajante]

But this new SkyActiv Mazda2 runs on slightly lower compression (12:1) and only has a 4-1 header. A 4-2-1 might give you more gains than it does on the Mazda3.

Ahhh, pardon my ignorance, sir. Presumed they shared the same 4-2-1s w/ middle child 3.
Mod away, guys!

years ago, there was this popular car that wouldn't move (AT..)..
trouble was finally blamed on the replacement horn.. it seems, the owner replaced the rather sedate horn, with a much noisier one..
.. the wonders of electronics.

Probably spliced the wrong wires. In this age where every switch goes thru the programmable Body Control Module, 1 can't be too careful.
I miss the Jurassic age when everything was a lot simpler.

Got a text message from my SA confirming that Changing the horn will void the warranty. How long is the warranty, anyway? I can't stand the potpot horn

3 or 5 years, depending on manufacturer..
and who says you can't replace the horn now, only to put back the original for the pms dates? heh heh.

sa japan kasi, my japanese colleague says it is considered almost rude if one has to use the horn..

i miss it, too, brother juras.
but then, unlike when we reigned supreme, i can't easily crawl under my car now.. neither can i get up easily afterward..

Only by letting them read the actual warranty conditions of your vehicle will your warranty and making them eat their words will your warranty stand.

Yup unlike here where the horn is used as a substitute for the brakes. The horn is a bit difficult and tedious to swap in/out because you have to tear down the front bumper and grill. My SA said if ever I want it changed, isabay na lang daw sa pag-kabit ng plates.

they have to bring down the bumper just to have the plates installed!!!???

[Yatta]

^You have to use the included official LTO screws and locknuts. Its easier when the bumper is off.

Yup, unless you'd wait for the M2-specific version of this M3 no-drill plate relocator kit.

The M3 kits are about to debut. The M2s will be up next if there is interest.

Sir Travs, sorry for the ignorance, will the relocator kit still use the LTO-provided screws?

[travajante]

Yes, they are designed to take LTO bolts, sir.
This is what the M3 kit comes w/. The LTO bolts thread into the pre-threaded holes on the backer. No use for nuts anymore.

Can you tell us how much would that cost for m2? 😃

Hi sir, it's yet to be determined. We have to gauge interest. Would you want this as much as Mown3rs do? Once viewed viable, updates will be shared. Stay tuned. Thanks, homiee sir.

Ran out of words... =)

Who needs words, brah? I wanna be you in my next life.

[homiee]

How's your m2 guys? 😊

[Yatta]

Gonna bring my Mz2 on a weeklong fieldwork in Taal, Talisay, Batangas next week. Drive via SLEX-Eton City-Tagaytay-Talisay road. Time to test the car via downhill and uphill twisties.
