MP3's UNITE! Post your MP3

[VIPMSP]

let's hope this doesn't turn into a flame thread, because i mean everybody has their own tastes...

personally i think that's wayyyyyyy over the top with the graphics. if it didn't have graphics and had normal tail lights, i think it would look nice, even with the evo wing.

 

[rahne]

alright, finally took some decent pics of my baby!

Ok, so he has the altezzas. I had them at one time myself (along with neon lights underneath), so I can't talk. How about the rest of the car? Are side designs tastefully done? Looks like nice wheels! Let's take a closer look at the ride before final judgment is passed. Give them a chance.

I'm gonna have to agree. Mine came with altezas that I ended up swapping to stock plus it's an Evo wing so if that's rice then we gotta say Pirana was Rice. I think it's hot minus the graphics for my taste. +1 Sir.

Hey Rahne did your cams make a big difference?? I've thought about getting those for my next upgrade

 

[323]

i miss my mp3.

 

[avarela86]

I run the J-Spec cam and on the butt dyno it feels less torquey down low and shifts it higher up. Gives the car a V-Tecy feel specially when you hit 5200 RPM and the solenoid in the intake mani opens. MUCH more noticable when I went turbo.

sorry about that bro, that really sucked to see that

 

[mattvbfreak]

sorry, i've been busy working and missed your question. alfredo is right on (i haven't turbo'd yet tho, can't wait!) but there is a noticeable difference, just not huge. i haven't dyno'd my car (i figure why bother when at most i have gotten 15 hp out of what i've done), but i'd be interested to know if someone has just after the j-spec camshaft install?

question? just want some feedback, not meaning to jack you're thread alfredo. i like the subtle stance of my car (with the ground control coil overs, i dropped my mp3 another .75" on top of the already .75" lowering that came stock on the mp3's. yea or nay? should i do maybe another .25" or just leave it where it is? i have the tokico illumina adj shocks so i feel like i can go more if i really want to, i'm just not sure i should. anybody out there dropped it lower than what i've done (with pics)?

slam the b****!

My skunks are all the way down on stock struts and I've been driving like that for 6 months and no problems.

 

[LinuxRacr]

I the pictures of mine are using the standard setttings on the Tein SS Dapeners (coilovers), and it is low enough to look good, and high enough not to scrape every damn thing.

 

[avarela86]

I rub on mine pretty bad...I think it's the 225 tires. I'm going back to 215 40 so I can look really low. Just wonder if I rather do 45 series for the added comfort.

 

[LinuxRacr]

I roll in 215/45/17's Toyo Proxes 4.

 

[CulRidr]

Stick with 45s...40s is just too rough a ride unless the roads over there are really smooth, in which case you get SO much feedback through the steering wheel and pedals...

Speaking of feedback, I felt like I had more feedback on the stock suspension. Would pillow ball mounts take that away?!
