Hey everyone- I am not entirely sure I am going to sell the car, but figured I would see if anyone on the forum may have interest in the car. Here are the details: 03 black mica, 16k miles, new kuhmo rubber, alignment, delsing clunk fix, kartboy shifter bushing, and dsm convert air fuel...

Here's a whopper for everyone. Just when you thought you've heard of everything.....The dealer denied checking on my alignment because of the Delsing Klunk Fix. This guy would have blamed a thrown rod on the thing on your suspension back there. I am taking the car elsewhere having it aligned...

I just dropped off the car. This process is for the birds. Once again the service manager started harping on rotating the tires every other oil change. He tried to say that being South Florida constituted extreme conditions with the heat, etc.. I replied that none of the printed materials I...

Well, I made a appointment at the dealer for tommorrow. I chatted with the service tech. He didn't know anything about any special toe adjustment for the MSP. He did mention that being under 12k is helpful to my cause. They are also going to look at the front end crunch as well. Does...

Well, Blk Zoom wins the prize! I went out this morning and checked out the fronts and sure enough they were exactly as he described. Now that I have thought about it a bit, I remember the noise coming from the rear more prior to roatating the tires. I remember thinking about adding some sound...

Funny you guys should mention that. I just did rotate the tires this week for the first time- 11k miles. I was hoping it would help ,but no dice.

Hi Everyone- I have a 03 Black Mica MSP with 11k miles. The only change I have made to the car is Delsing's Klunk Fix. Recently, I have noticed much more tire noise coming from the front end. It is speed dependent and if I had to guess it sounds as if the wheels are out of balance. The one...

Has anyone considered using a IV Supra sidemount IC? It is my understanding they are good till about 450 hp and can be had for about $150 on ebay. This a popular upgrade for stealthy mitsubishi turbos. I am unsure of its dimensions and whether it could be rigged to work on our cars. Sorry if...

Hello everyone- I purchased a black 2003 MSP in West Palm Beach little over a month ago. I paid $15.5 with no miles. I did have two problems though.....The car did not have the sparco shift knob and it didn't have the mazdaspeed floor mats. The salesman/finance person I dealt with said he...

Hello everyone- My girlfriend has a 2g eclipse with a side mount intercooler. I have seen them for sale on ebay for as cheap as $35. Most people don't seem to be changing them out until around the 250+ hp level. Is there any inherent design problem with making one work on a MSP? Thanks in...
