you won't want to go back to your MSP if you get a ride in the R32. have you heard the exhaust note on that thing? addictive to say the least. that and having 250 hp to all the wheels is very enticing as well. no wheel spin in corners
i noticed the engine starting to buck and jerk violently only after i heard what i described as a metal on metal tinging noise which is exactly what it was. the turbo was shot. then the car would stall out on me if the RPM's weren't kept high enough. under acceleration of any kind the turbo...
The dealership has been very good to me so i've really got no gripe about them. matter of fact one of the Salesmanagers used to be on some Mazda factory race team racing 3rd gen 7's. He had one of his own that he sold about 2 years ago. He's also talked to me about how the cars are basically kit...

i think enough people have had bad luck with the McCulloch so i'm betting he can say that and back it up.
i had a Catz 4500k Rising White dual beam kit in my car. car's going bye bye so the kit came out and is for sale now. check the For Sale section incase you're interested
