What have you done to your MSP today?

[323]

Did yours get the axle stuck in it too, LOL? I realized my axle is seized to the knuckle when I went to replace the clutch. What a pain, I had to remove the whole knuckle from the car, just to pull the axle.

yeah it got stuck. pb blasted, pressed, torched, beaten. it's starting to mushroom just like preferio said. friend said a bigger press will do the job but will ruin all hub and axle. fuqqq

Spotted a stock Titanium and tried to get beside them just to say "hi" and tell them they had a brake lamp out, but they didn't seem interested, so I just hammered it past them. Bitches.

I hate when I see other MSPs with clueless owners, I get so excited when I see another MSP, lol.

About to head to the JY to pull an FS head for my buddy's titanium MSP to get it back on the road

There are 2 "new" MSPs around. The Titanium I saw and a Blazing Yellow I saw last week. I've seen another blue MP3 with aftermarket bronze wheels.

did you get the kind with the brackets?

I cut the very ends off one side of mine to make them fit. Made it so the rear of the bracket was a U just like the OEM bracket and small enough to fit.

 

[protege3690]

yea with brackets. and ok cool. thanks for the tip.

I see so many Mazdas every day, lol. Mazda has a 12% market share in Central Texas, that's about 10x more Mazdas per capita compared to other regions.

I had that happen on my P5... Both axles weren't coming out... Air hammer, torch, penetrating oil... Wouldn't work... Then I got the sledge out and me and a friend beat the s*** out of it for 30 minutes until it came lose... The best part? It mushroomed the axle, so I had to use an angle grinder to grind it down for it to slide out of the hub... The 6 was the same way. I actually ended up leaving them in the hub when I put the engine in.

Every fwd mazda i have done axles on, has been difficult to get the axles out. it never fails...

 

[323]

le sigh. my axle, hub, and knuckle should be here thurs/fri.

Ive got a local wanting to trade his NA for my MSP with cash on his end. He's an enthusiast in the sense that he is focused on making the car handle better, brake better, and more power versus another type that woild slam it, camber it, big ass sound system, and sticker bomb the **** out of it right after they hang a drift charm from the rear tow hook that will get in the way every sngle time the motherfucker gets towed before he sells it because he doesnt appreciate what the little ****** is! Or understand it. I dont know what t is, but for some reason i love the car more than the other 26 ive owned and dump so.much.money into it knowing its not getting any faster than that stock Ford Focus thats being sold now (i have no idea what they are rated at, im ranting. Ill check later). It doesnt make power, but it handles like its on rails.and it sure as **** isnt able to take the Chris abuse it receives. Maybe thats why i like it? Who knows. Its weird to think i might not own it anymore soon..

 

[hornsfan10609]

Regular proteges are just so... regular, ya know?
