There's actually no "universal" key - they just have copies of all of them at the dealership - why I know this? My car had no key when I bought it so I had to take it back to the dealer. They were very apologetic and actually gave me a copy of the key for my car's wheels from one of the...

Sometimes I live near Houston. Other times I live on other planets :D (or so people tell me) Since we're posting pictures

I love my Yellow - just about glows when you get it out in sunlight (damn why won't it stop raining here?) and I never lose it in a parking lot :D Other than Yellow I was really into the Titanium. It was a close pick between the two.

I've no intention of switching from streets soon, but I'd like to know what my options are, especially if I end up having to order stuff that will take time to get here. I've run 4 events with the MSP on street tires so far, and hope to get at least another 8 before they go out - I'm doing...

I had kind of assumed that - rear wheels don't drive anything so as long as I'm not eating them apart I usually just stick them lower than the fronts and kind of ignore them. Maybe not the best strategy, but it works for now and I get confused enough about tires playing with just 2 of them...

I autocross and am looking to get a more agressive alignment for this year. Anyone know a good shop to go to in the area? I also frequent Austin and will be in the area this coming weekend if there's anything around there someone wants to recommend. thanks!

Ah - that's more what I expected. The place I run most often is fairly rough asphalt, when I've gone to other venues I've found that higher pressures sometimes work better, but I don't get a chance to get out of the area often enough to know exactly what works best with what surface/conditions...

The odd thing today was that I was getting out of control without doing anything that I could really see should have sent me into a spin (I'm not completely new at this, and I'm not in the habit of spinning cars). The car sort of overbalanced when I eased off the throttle at the end of a fast...

Not as bad as what I used to run :D They're not grippy enough though - the car feels like it could go so much faster if the wheels just would stop letting go. the 360s were at the entry/exit to a slalom (both 90ish degree corners), entry was fast, slalom was fast, exit was fast. Think I may...

Just wanting to stir up some conversation & maybe get some input... I've been doing AutoX for about a year but only had the MSP for a few months. So far I really enjoy driving it, but today I had it out at a local event(I've been running DS on the stock bridgestones - this was my 4th event with...

I've also got state farm - I'm at about 140$/mo

How many miles do you have on it? Mine had a funny idle from about 1200 until I topped 2500. Also - occasionally when the fans kick on it will cause the front end to shudder. Try to listen for when they come on (they're pretty loud - shouldn't be too hard) and see if it parallels the rough idle.

Good to hear it. I haven't followed ProRally very closely until recently, so I'm still learning who's who. Will you be running at Oregon Trail or Rim? I'd like to have someone to cheer for :D

Can I get a clue? I was looking around under the steering column this morning, and I'm seeing the same mazda security box... but no white dial. I'm guessing this isn't what I'm looking for.... :confused:

huh- is it factory backed? or just run by the MazdaSpeed group?

Um.... I wasn't aware Mazda ever ran a ProRally team... ? Regardless all the manufacturer run teams are out this year. Subaru was the last to go - they pulled their program about a month ago.

Has anyone had the alarm set itself? I had mine out at an AutoX last week and it was saying hi to everything that drove past - the thing that concerns me isn't the sensitivity though, its the fact that I never set the alarm!

Yes - love this car Admit it would have been a harder descision at MSRP though (paid 18 for mine).

NP, Rally car classifications are confusing, I still don't completely get them I think Group A is still run, though I'm not completely clear on that. Group N is still run, and I think is the only FIA standard used in the ProRally Championship. WRC Spec is a special allowance homologation for...

Perhaps We're not on the same page here... if we are talking WRC Spec cars (Those that are run by Manufacturer teams in the WRC) they are NOT required to have roadgoing counterparts. Total output for WRC Homologation is less than 50 cars. You may be thinking of the older Group A vehicles. Prior...
