    Why can't I heel toe

    I find the accelerator pedal just too far away from the brake for my size 9's. 'm going to remove the aluminium pedal and shift it over one set of holes. apparently I'll have to remove the whole pedal from the bulk head to do this. Anyone done it yet?

    RX 8 R3 Centre Cap Part Number

    Anyone got the part number for the RX-8 R3 (dark grey) centre caps? Is F19737190 correct? The parts man at the local dealer was a right window licker and didn't fill me with confidence. Just had my RX-8 rims powder coated gunmetal and want to make sure the muppet orders the right part.

    What have you done to your MS3 today?

    Just fitted a 52mm boost gauge in the drivers side pod, using a RPM store vent pod. Wired it to light up white in the day and red at night as the red was barely visable in daylight. I've also fitted a Scangauge 2 permenantly above the ashtray (next to the cig lighter). I drilled the fascia...

    Removing just 1 resonator?

    Just had the smaller resonator replaced in the end and it's just right for what I was looking for. Louder than stock with a really deep 'breath' kind of sound but not to obvious. It's how it should have been as stock. There's a big difference in the size of the resonators so I guess they'll...

    Removing just 1 resonator?

    Just got my MS3 - or 3 MPS here in the UK (with Aero kit). After a few other hot hatches the engine in the MPS is a proper old school big turbo beast, I find the steering is a bit detached but the torque steer makes it exciting, even on a straight! Anyway, I want to remove just one resonator...
