I'm gonna have to tell my friends and family back in Philly to keep their eyes out for my MSP! Although it obviously won't look the way it did when I owned it -- but still. I just hope that the new owner isn't some rice-brained doofus.

This thread is open for ALL lowering options -- springs, coilovers, whatever. It's a complete collection of every single way you can choose to lower your MSP. :)
Mazdaspeed2oo35, I undeleted your post for you because it definitely applies!
Updating to put my pics in the first post now!
I went to bring in the empty trash can and recycle bin this morning -- and in the process, for inexplicable reasons, I got a HUGE holy-s***-I-miss-my-MSP whammer. I then proceeded to bring the stuff into the garage, sat down next to my G35, and cried.
And that's my story.
I figure it's way past time to put together a thread containing pictures of all the various aftermarket suspension setups on all the MSPs around here -- springs and coilovers and anything else -- since there are countless threads started in this subforum revolving around the 'what lowering...
Not only is that effin' horrible to begin with -- but to know you came THAT close to saving the car from being stolen? I probably would've flung myself across the trunk without even thinking.

^^ That's my old grill, DG Motorsports carbon fiber. I ordered the emblem from Protege Garage, waaaaay back when I first got the grill. And if the emblem is still there now, then the adhesive on it has lasted .. four years.
I'm sure you can pick up a similar emblem online somewhere -- eBay...
Wow, that's impressive!
The antenna, the amber sidemarkers, and the unpainted sideview mirror support-pillar-thingies gave it away for me .. but then there's also the fact that it seems to have an 03 front end, but an 03.5 back end. But an impressive conversion nonetheless!
Any pics of the...
I had both the Innovate and the AEM .. I absolutely HATED the Innovate gauge, it gave me problems from day one until I finally lost my patience and sent it back. I then went with the AEM UEGO, and that gauge never gave me any problems. I actually still have it sitting in my garage .. waiting to...
