Well, put in some NGK blue wires and NGK plugs in yesterday. Car runs smoother now. Those stock wires and plugs had gone baaaad. Trying to get a used Greddy kit off miata.net but I think I was beaten to the punch. Here's me pre- Azenis I was going to do an autocross last weekend but...

I'm wondering how lightweight 17 inch wheels and 225/50/17's would do. Or better yet 235/45/17, although I realize that might be pushing it as far as rubbing.

I dunno... Mazdaspeed3 kicked the Cooper S's butt in the last C&D comparo. (smoke)

Probably his son. I'd give the old man a call and tell him what happened. I bet he knows his son is a douche and will cut you a check. Old people often have plenty of money even though all the politicians want to give them free drugs to buy their votes.

New test. Guess they learned how to launch it better. Different temperatures? Are there different tires on the TR? They didn't say. All that's obvious to me is most people under most conditions would be able to launch the WRX faster from a dead start to 60. But it's game over otherwise. I for...

Did I mention they claim 0-60 this time to be 5.4? 1/4 mile is 14 seconds flat at 101 mph. They must abuse the hell out of it to get those times.... but the 5-60 street start of 6 seconds flat takes the WRX by a 1/2 second and the others for even more.

Home for lunch and just got the issue. Pretty sweet win after Mazdaspeed Protege and Speed6 ranked poorly against the competition (according to C&D). Haven't read yet but 5th Impreza WRX TR (pwn3d) 4th Sentra SE-R Spec V 3rd Cooper S 2nd GTI (5-door) 1st Speed3 GT Niiiiice.

Had a friend once who used to have Porsche as a client. She got to take home a Cayenne Turbo one weekend. Yeah, it was a fast 90K SUV. It was nice and didn't complain driving it a few hours. But I hate SUVs. Feel like my nuts are cut off driving an automatic. The plain jane Carrera2 she brought...

I dunno... most successful Mazdaspeed ever, in terms of critical praise and disappearing from dealer lots. Also the turbo 2.3 is used in other Mazda cars which you couldn't say about the MSP or MSM. Got to be better profit margins for Mazda.

Uh, so what's your daily driver? ?

Al Gore is doing his part? Al Gore doesn't do s***. I do a fuckload more than Al Gore to have a small "eco-footprint". I just can't afford to buy "carbon credits" aka "21st-century yuppie-hippie indulgences".

I'm sure one of the "security guards" got a "giant sack of weed" to look the other way.

Just hilarious to me, going to that place as a kid http://www.dumpalink.com/videos/Fun_at_the_water_park-gkcf.html Kick my ass if it's a repost.

I love the Cosmic Blue.

An '08 is going to be tempting as hell. I can just smell having twice the horsepower. Hell.... more power than BOTH my current cars combined. (Until I turbo the Miata. :) )

Interesting. This damn car is calling my name so hard. Maybe I should just go ahead and reserve an 08.

So who killed it? Dick Cheney? Will he clone himself and personally assasinate anyone else who ever tries to make an electric car? Sound like a lot of whining to me. You know what killed THAT not THE electric car? The technology and economics just weren't there yet. Do you think a year after...

Mine stayed in the garage all day. :( But arriving by UPS Ground soon: blue NGK wires, fresh NGK plugs, Axxis metal master pads.

Thinkin' bout it! Probably won't know until last minute.... new g/f blah blah blah....

I've become reasonable like that too. I kind of enjoy that my Miata soaks up a speedbump better than my Protege. Of course visually.... I would like a small drop. (eyeballs) I guess my ideal roadster this sec... because the best roadster to me is one you can use A LOT... would be the sure to...
