Thanks for the comments.

The car had just over 44k when I bought it. It was from a middle-aged gentleman mostly highway driven to/from work. The car was in pretty good shape, maybe 2 dents in the whole car, and it was untouched. I replaced the rear swaybar bushings, with some from AWR. The stock ones were in horrible shape(A common problem from what I hear). I've added a K&N, new plugs, HID's, and am waiting to install the boost and oil pressure gauges aswell as the Turbo timer.

This is my new daily since my other car has outgrown its daily driver status. It's a lot of fun in its current state and I'm not looking to take it too much further than the normal BPU's. Though I've noticed this car is in horrible need of a FMIC.

I paid 13k for it. I felt it was a good price for what it was. Not to mention I was a little hindered by my price range. All the dealers in my area wanted around 18k for MSPs with 30k miles or so. There was another laser blue MSP in Richmond, VA but it was owned by a kid previously, and you could tell.

I'm getting ready to turn it over to Mazda for some warranty work before I lose the chance.

Yea I'm currently in "research" mode. I'm trying to find all I can on the GReddy turbo timer install. I'm getting ready to put in an oil pressure gauge so be on the look-out for that write up.
