    MS3 Gas Pedal Position

    Ok, I've had my MS3 for a month and the gas pedal placement is driving me crazy. I normally heel-toe brake all the time and loved my old Pro5's gas pedal placement. The MS3 gas pedal seems to be about a 1/2" to far back and to the right for smooth heel-toe. Has anyone added a spacer behind...

    Mazdaspeed 3 delivery time frame?

    Went to another area dealer today, they had a black GT on the lot. I started to realize my dealer wasn't doing much to find me a cosmic blue car. After a test drive and a search of local cars, he was able to get me cosmic blue GT exactly what I wanted and guaranteed for 4/30 pickup!!! :)

    Mazdaspeed 3 delivery time frame?

    I'm going to hold out for a cosmic blue and not switch colors. Seems to be a few black MS3 GT around the area and I can tell the dealer would like to make a easier deal. I'm going to be patient, as difficult as it is...

    Mazdaspeed 3 delivery time frame?

    It sounds like 4-6 weeks is about right. It's been getting good press and limited #'s makes it a hot car. I hate to see my blue 2002 Protege 5 go, but I cannot wait to upgrade to MazdaSpeed!!!

    Mazdaspeed 3 delivery time frame?

    I've seen a red locally, but I want the cosmic blue. Now the dealer needs to follow up and get one from another deal in 11 states. Anyone know about a MazdaSpeed 3 GT, comic blue on a lot near by???

    Mazdaspeed 3 delivery time frame?

    I've been working with a local NW Chicago dealer about a Mazdaspeed 3 GT, cosmic blue and he is telling me that it's going to take 4-6 for delivery, maybe more? We settled on a price and I gave him a deposit to start the process. Is the Madzaspeed 3 supply that tight or is he using it to...

    basics of driving a manual

    Learning advanced down shifting techniques is half the fun of owning a sporty manual car. Start with some basic down shifting. In 4th or 5th gear your coming up to a red light - in a quick fluid movement push the clutch in and blip the throttle to rev the engine, quickly shifting to a lower...

    Spark plugs

    My 2002 P5 has 20K miles, CIA and cat-back exhaust. I decided to upgrade the ignition system with Denso iridium plugs, ground system and r-type plug wires. I first pulled what I believe are the original Denso non-iridium k16pr-u plugs and installed the Denso iridium IK20. Went for a test-drive...

    Spark plugs

    Just installed Denso iridium ik20 yesterday. I did notice a smoother idle and acceleration. Are they worth the cost? Sure, but don't expect to some magic HP increase.
