Iâ€™m not sure
I changed the hub , was late Wednesday night so much to do before we headed up to Bedford Friday afternoon .
I tried to get the unit old apart , had to batter it to separate . So thought I may have damaged the replacement doing it
Will put a new one on , that side clearly gets the hammering

Thats not to bad at all...is that genuine? You dont want a cheapo solution the mazda oem 1s have held up well to track abuse and slick use.

Project cars back in
Only a bit of work but decided to use the RX8 oil filter housing , small bit of machining required

And we can use the original metal gasket too

Job done
Can easily reach the oil filter from under the UIM as Iâ€™ll be using electric water pump . And no fabrication to the bulkhead

Alternator is on , just need to cut 30 -40 mm out of the arm to tidy it up .

All going well should get the Throttle body adaptor on UIM this evening .
Then need to bore everyone about turbo choices again

Yep
Thatâ€™s price Dave on RX8OC checked up in Mazda .
Will definitely be replacing with new .
Has lasted 6 years of Trackdays so not bad .
