What have you done to your MSP today?

I tore apart my electrical system today to diagnose that my alarm brain has died....for the SECOND TIME....


...btw...kamon...did you get my PM?
 
pushed her into a different parking spot today so that she doesn't get towed :(

Nice new sig...bastard, lol.

How do you like the Benz so far?

Are you going to be posting up a part out thread? If so, could you PM me when it goes up?

hahaha, you're a bastard!!! lol, i love the Benz man, such a pleasure to drive, super torquey, excellent handling, exactly what you would expect from a MB, i am gonna post up a part out thread as soon as i rip everything off, then i'll let everybody know

Long drives make me hate my MSP, the seat cushion is too short for my long ass legs, with no telescoping wheel.

I want something like your new baby for road-tripping...I'm jealous ;)

i still love everything about the MSP, except for the spinning bearings part, MSP is cheap to mod compared to a Benz, carbon fiber intake box = $1749 with a gain of 10hp, lol it's crazy so i'm keeping it pretty much stock to keep myself from going broke which i'm close to due to all the break downs the MSP had, fyi, the Benz was cheaper than a new MS3!!!
 
Excellent Exhaust. I have it. Make sure you have inserts or motor mounts. Or it will crack as theres no flex section.

i thought the newer ones all came w/ a flex section after all those issues? I has one :D

and i agree, i <3 my CS....

Mine doesnt have one. I think they just come with the inserts now. Which is enough to stop the movement and keep the warranty on it.

I just had a cat welded into it cause of inspection. And i run the MSP muffler. I didnt notice any difference in power so im sure its minimal. I hate droning.


now you guys are getting me nervous. on the corksport website, they say the exhaust comes with their motor mount inserts. but i ordered from protege garage. i sent ken an e-mail when i ordered asking if it still comes with the inserts but haven't heard back yet.
 
was it cheaper through ken that on CS?

Im sure Ken will let you know but if it doesnt you should definitely get some if the new ones have no flex section...also remember to use the stock spring bolts that connect the midpipe to the downpipe

they were both listed at the same price, 419, but ken's had free shipping, so i went with him. i'm sure he'll get back to me.

i'm having a friend of a friend do the install along with some ground control coilovers next week, i'll make sure he uses the stock spring bolts, thanks for reminding me evilmonkey.

btw - i just noticed the monkey driving the msp in your sig. nice.

You will get it. they come packaged with the instructions right from CS. If you dont, you are entitled to them since they are free so just let ken know and youll get em. no biggie.
 
thanks for the heads up terbow. looking forward to getting the exhaust. there's a big race down in Englishtown, NJ in a couple weeks. i'm hoping to get the exhaust, coilovers, and dgm front lip on in time.

btw - is anyone on here near ny / jersey or heading down to Englishtown May 3rd $ 4th?
 
I just ordered new gaskets, and mounting hardware for my new exhaust and exhaust mani.

Also ordered corksport exhaust hangers last night
 
finally transferred a set of tein ss coilovers from a black msp parts car i got and put replaced the stockers. all 4 end links were rusted and rotted to say the least and it took me having to cut them all up and off in the end. ordered new ones so i'm not worried about it. car rides like a stiff ass dream now!!! holy crap i'm amazed. i saw myself never leaving the car after haha, i could only wish my ms6 handled so good. seems to not have the snappy oversteer as before but that may be greatly do to the sway bars non-function right now. took about 6-7 hours total basically replacing suspension in both cars lol.

Was with my friend all day. He bought a RX-8. Pretty good deal. Titanium in color 2004 with only 14,000 miles on it. It's practically a brand new car for only $19,ooo out the door tax tag title included.

were gonna do a little photoshoot might be a titanium s2000 there too, and he has a camera so maybe now I'll be able to post some good pics. Still gotta show you all the HIDS and Thunder manifold installed.
