How long before you think they can meet most if not all backorders?

2-3 months?

There's only been one person in the world that's been able to pull that off AFAIK and it wasn't on a quirky 13b, I think it was on a VW engine. He only got it to work for 1 day.

What happened is Mazda had to shut down production of S6 motor parts and retool the factory toproduce RX-8 motor parts for a couple months. Hopefully they will be back in production soon.

I don't see mazda canning the s6. they are still used in many race series..like the JGTC and scca, etc. Them stopping for a while to make rx-8 eng. parts sounds like something that would be done. and like what was said before they made 7's until 2000-01 in japan.
