Yeah probably wasn't an RSX because those will smoke an MSP

Yeah, since I'd just get the full Wings West kit anyway I'm not so worried about the front of the 2003.5 so Titanium is the way to go. That is unless you want to drive down the street with a big sign that says "look at me look at me look at me" like the orange almost does.

yeah what's with the Kanji on the plate?

Well, since I can't attend this magnificent event (*kills self*) could someone from this forum please go and get some fresh new pics of our MSP? My desktop is just itching for a new background. Auto show goes from the 18th through the 27th at the Jacob Jabits (sp?) Center. Went last year and it...

Your right too newf. All these reviewers really love Proteges. Even though the 6 is ranked top ten with Car and Driver, the MSP is among the Editors Most Wanted list at Edmunds. Yay Mazda!(rofl) (2thumbs)

When I saw the wing in person I was suprised at how snazzy it looked actually. I opened the trunk in the dealership and the wing must weight like nothing because the trunk was lightest I've ever lifted (with or without a wing). It's similar to the wing on Kaminari's Project WRX and I think that...

Found it! Well What do ya know, actually found the review. Was Road and Track, not Car and Driver. Same thing really. http://www.roadandtrack.com/article.asp?section_id=7&article_id=221&page_number=1 They reviewed the Evo VII, but hell, the 8 is just as much of a beast if not more. Enjoy!

Well they are comparable, but Sloop I think your friend needs to work on his driving skills in the twisties. The reason I'd probably take the EVO over the Sti (besides the fact that EVO's MSRP is 28k, to Sti's 33k) is it's suspension. The rally tuned suspension in that mo fo is impressive. No...

thanks a lot man. wow those gains are pretty substantial. I'm looking forward to this one... in 2-3 years when I get my MSP (bang)

Hey gang, I've been checking around that whenever someone on the forum mentions intake, they are always hit with this new Injen thing that is supposed to be coming out in the near future. However, I can't find any pictures/dyno of this rumored intake. Would greatly appreciate if people could...

One shouldn't really worry about the end product of sound with this setup. Just get the universal Blitz Nur Spec and that will provide more than enough sound.

I have to say, I was never a fan of cruise either until today. Did a trip up to Binghamton from NYC which is like 4 hours this weekend but on saturday I got my first speeding ticket ever for 76 in a 55. Ouch. Well, lucky he didn't catch me as I was slowing down from the 85 I was consistently...

Thanks for the input on the VW but personally the only VW that I find even mildly appealing is the new 260hp Passat. The rest are either too ugly or too small for my perference. GTi is zippy, true, but not my style. The main reason I like the Mazdaspeed Protege is the MSRP and the gas milage...

Well, I've been doing my homework lately and upon bouncing around the RSX forum I found a link to the Ultimate Racing website. They make turbo kits and the like and are planning some sweet looking upgrades for the MSP. I don't own one yet, but in comparing the WRX, RSX, and MSP, upgrades like...
