im going to go ahead and say i think the bar was installed upside down and the MC brace installed on the wrong side. the bar is supposed to say "MAZDASPEED" on it.

are you sure you cant just unbolt the brace and bolt it to the other side?

I love the way the turbo doesn't have "Piece'o'JunkGreddy" stamped on it, it has Garrett in nice large letters!

then i think its a case where usdm > jdm in that case.

the MC brace cylinder is the only performance reason for upgrading.

I can't help but stare at your avatars. As long as you don't tell me that's a dude, I think I'm in the clear...

Looks like they are cosmetic trim, there are no lug holes on them.
They gotta come off to take the wheel off.

I'm pretty sure it's MM's upgrade kit that's been out for a bit, just with a touch of BHR wrench work thrown in.
Where's blue knight?? We demand updates!
