    The MazdaSlow Protegay is (owned) by Honda/Acura! My MSP is comparable to my SOHC Civic. It's sad to me that it takes a turbo for the MSP to keep up with the slowest Honda Motor.

    has anyone painted their emblems?

    Thanks for clearing that up before I really screwed something up. I don't plan on repainting anything on my MSP.

    has anyone painted their emblems?

    So the emblems don't have holes behind them on the trunklid? I had thought about taking off the Protegay emblem off, but was unsure about whether it was just adhesive or holes/pins. On my Lexus I used to have, I removed all the emblems and had to weld up all the holes before repainting.

    How many have gotten dealer to fix the rust on rotors?

    On one of my many trips to the fine local Mazda dealership, I pointed out the rust problem to the service mgr. He said "there was nothing they could do about it" and that it was a "common problem". The bad part is, you probably are better off 'fixing' the crap yourself. I don't trust...

    Turbo 323?

    A little off topic...Yeah, it's been a good experience for me in this forum. Majority of the people in the other forum think they're part of some elite group because they own a MSP. Ooh, they're real special. :rolleyes: I own the same thing...it's not all that. But I have witnessed the same...

    Thank you, I really miss it sometimes. Most people couldn't believe that I would drag a Lexus on the ground throwing sparks everywhere. It was fun!

    Thanks man. :) I fully expected to get flamed for my Honda being on this forum! The reactions have surprised me. I just try to keep things clean and simple with everything I do.

    Can anybody tell me what exactly happens at 4k rpm with the engine in the MSP?

    I should probably do a search, but does anyone have pics showing this "dedicated line" ran to the wastegate actuator?

    Here's a new-b question

    Thanks for your reply. That's what I was trying to figure out-The turbo makes the usual "whine" or "whistle" type of sound, but around 4k rpm or so under acceleration, the sound changes to a long "screech" noise. When I wasted my time getting the car 'flashed' at the dealer, the service mgr...

    Thanks man. I really wanted true CTR Recaro's, but they were selling for like $1200 used. These were the closest replicas I could find. They were a B-day present from my wife last year.(thumb) Under the hood is a D16z6 with a few bolt ons. I'm working on turbocharging it now. I put a little...

    Thanks guys. That pic with Rachel is my favorite. I'll have to get one of her next to the 20's...she'll probably seem really small then!

    Show off your 18s!

    These are my favorites so far: West-Is your MSP dropped any on the 18's? If so, what kind of springs did you use? If I keep my MSP, I want to put 19's on it. Anyone have 19's on a MSP here?

    And for the last one, here is a pic of me and my family. We were in the middle of building our new house back in the summer. And there's another family member on the way.
