    The coolest gauge everrrrrrrrr...

    Holy Bejesus... that gauge is expensive... but I'm intrigued. I can't say as that it would match my future setup with the colors and all, but that is one awesome gauge. If someone gets this, I wanna see some pictures of it in action. 4 gauges in one, I'm in!

    Wrecked my baby tonight...

    I'll post new ones tomorrow after work. If anyone has any suggestions or possible replacement parts, let me know. I've got to get some sort of estimate to insurance, and if I can save them money by getting other parts, I'm sure they'd love me forever. Anyone make a good looking body kit for...

    Wrecked my baby tonight...

    Pulling out onto a street tonight, I got front swiped. The guy was doing at least 30+ mph and probably could have ripped the bumper off. Luckily, insurance will cover the car since I have full coverage, and I'll know in the next few days how much it's going to cost. I can't drive the car...

    Adding the Apexi Turbo Timer soon. Replaced the stock headlights with some new higher wattage bulbs and wiring. Replacing the stock fogs with some new brighter and higher wattage bulbs.

    SMIC Installed, Boost up to 16 psi from 6 psi

    if you're heading through kansas at all, I know columbia is about three hours away from here, let me know and I'll buy lunch. I haven't seen a lot of MSPs around here, although there is a wanna be with a Protege that every time I get close to it, he stomps on the pedal and tries to get away...

    best way to remove bugs?

    generally a claybar or some solvent usually works quite well. I've detailed cars professionally for a few years in my life. What I would do if you're going to use some sort of solvent is to spray lightly in the area you need it most, wipe cleanly, use a claybar after the solvent to get any...

    msp cruise

    I have one on mine. Bought it like that, even have the original work order receipt. I hate it though... Can't use it. Since they base it off of vacuum lines the car shoots forward gets to the speed it is set for, then just backs off quite hard. That continues for a while, then gets quite...

    My MSP sux the cruise control broke!!

    Someone installed a cruise control system on my MSP... I hate the damn thing, and since it's vaccum line based, it likes to slow down and speed up every .120909340858 seconds. If only mazda had made them stock on our cars (but in a lot better way). I have to drive 80 miles (round trip) to work...

    It's that time again ..

    it's in the 50s and 60s here, but it has been fluctuating for a few weeks. i don't have any steelies to put on, so if it's icy, i'm screwed. i'm just glad i have full coverage on her.

    New to Mazda and happy about it!

    I just picked it up tonight, drove it home on the highway, drove it around in the city for a little bit, washed it off... and I can't stop thinking about how lucky I am. It seems like it was meant to be, I was born and lived in the same town for 2 1/2 years in the car's original registration...

    New to Mazda and happy about it!
