    I ditched my speed3 awhile back. Could you add me to the 02 626lx winter beater list?;)

    MS3 - Is it a smart buy for MN winters?

    This car is an exceptionally poor choice for use in MN during the winter. I got rid of mine because it was so horrible to try to drive at anything colder than 10 below zero. The brakes are way too grabby for the cold pavement, even with snow. Steering was really vague when it got below zero too...

    How long are you planning on keeping your Speed3?

    Mines already gone. I bought a 91 Integra for 75. No car payments anymore. Cheap insurance too. I don't care if this one gets dented. I miss driving the speed though.

    I have a poll

    You my friend need winter tires and wheels. I would start shopping for those right now. I waited until November last year for my snows. I never found the right size or tire. I know this will be the biggest upgrade possible for anyone with an ms3 in Minn. I still haven't seen your car yet!

    Injen CAI Install

    Just unplug the foglight wires. It took time, yeah,but it wasn't hard. The toughest part was finding a place to lay the bumper cover once it was off the car.

    Anyone "Know anyone" that does track days in "their" MS3

    My dealer has no problem with me tracking my car 15 days a year. They ask about safety items like brake pads and track tires more than how hard the car is driven. Believe me, they can scan your cpu for whatever they want. But they should also realize that they sent you out the door with a car...

    Injen CAI Install

    I've got over13,000 trouble free miles on my Injen cai. Install did require the removal of the bumper, but it was no problem. Mileage improved by 2-3 mpg, the sound is awesome, the torque is even better. Buy what you want. The Injen is great. the MS cai is too. Neither will affect your warranty...

    Silver MS3 w/ gunmetal RX8 wheels

    How do you like your General UHP tires? I need new tires, and those are some I was considering. Wheels look cool. Like a really sleepy regular 3, but somehow way cooler at a glance. Very stealth my friend. Nice.

    Removed moldings: pics and impressions

    Nice job. This was my first mod too. Still the best bang for no bucks. Now if there was a free awd mod to be found here somewhere.... hmmm

    What are the best mods to make first?

    Congrats and welcome! Most everyone on these boards are so into getting more power out of an already overpowered front drive car that they overlook the best money you could ever spend on any high performance car. Look into high performance driving schools in your area. Get your car on a closed...

    You know you have all done this too...

    Been there, never done that. I'd walk a mile if it meant that my car was safe, and that someone who needed the spaces had access to them. The parking lot Gods are not a fickle bunch. They dole out swift, severe and expensive punishment for those of us who might even consider disrespecting them...
