Okay people I need some help so put on the probe thinking caps and bear down. I have done the one wiper mod, but I am wondering if there is a way I can get the wiper to make a full 180 degree sweep of the windsheild, if anyone had done this please I need to know!!!!. Okay now for the brakes, I am getting the pulsation from my brake pedel I have the latieral run out or "warped rotors" I want to know if anyone knows where I can get some cross drilled rotors or some good performance brake pad any suggestion's will help. now for the wires, I was changing my oil today and I decided to take off the distributor cap to clean it since I'm in dier need of replacing it. But when I took if off I saw a platic cup just behind the rotorbutton so I took the rotor button off and saw the strangest thing I saw the "DIAMOND STAR SYMBOL" yes Mitsubisi, why in the world do I see a diamond star symbol on a mazada engine? I'm curious has anyone else ever noticed this. But now to the wires I need new ones what should I buy I need info soon I have to get my baby ready for the race season coming up at my local drag strip, so anyone with ideas please let me know. Oh yeah and a clutch. Thanks sorry it was so long. Jose G can't wait to hit that staging line

Take a look at your starter. You will see another mistsubishi sign on it. Guess what, Mazda and Mitsubishi are both Japanese and our cars are made by Mazda. Also, your injectors are Nipendeso style(Mistsubishi) Wierd huh? Steve

Thanks for the reply chris I have NGK plugs already who is DSM and where could I get one? The wires I know I can get through corksport, the clutch I know I can get just about anywhere, but most likely corksport. But as far as the one wiper mod. I have it already done but does not cover the whole span of the wind shield. I know people have seen other probes like this and i'm just wondering if they know how to get the wiper to span the whole wind shield. The ful 180 degrees just like on a benz? Bryan any ideas? Anyone i'm always entertaining everyone's suggestions. Jose G PSE

I had an 85' Isuzu Impulse which had a single wiper arm factory. It was 22" inches long and my cousin had one too(impulse) and his motor was acting up and we worked on it i noticed that it had a very wide swing (the motor rotates the wiper arm(s) in a circular motion usually small for two wipers.) So you may try to extend the motor's range of movement so its wider and use a longer blade.IF you can find an Impulse look at the wiper and you'll see what im talking about. OH by the way how did you get yours' off?? My 95' base wipers wont budge. Sage Zoku aka Antonio 95 base power hatch release hotshot intake(EXPERIMENTAL)Weapon*R filter Sleepy eyed

Well you got to take those rubber covers off and take off the nuts holding the wiper arms on the small shaft. After that you need to raise the wiper arm like you were going to clean your windsheild so it would be out of your way, then just wiggle it back and forth. It should come up. The thing i'm confused with it that the passanger side wiper turns in a complete circle where the driver side one turns the 180 degree way, or it looks like it does. And the driver side one feeds off the passenger side wiper. So when the passenger side turns its complete circle the driver side is doing the half of it. I just don't know how to get the passenger side one to turn the full 180 degrees, do I take off the motor and switch the two wiper shafts or what ever you want to call them, or just connect the driver side rod to the motor and connect that one to the passenger side wiper shaft?? I am sorry if this is confusing everyone but I really like the look of one wiper, and its a real head turnner, I just don't want to go back to the same old everyday two wiper deal you know? Well any ideas would be greatly appericeated. And thanks for everyone who has been helping out already. Jose G "found out that my probe is just a base, but with a shit load of options"
