for $500 just buy some new rims or upgrade the sound systems =p
My wife has the mazda5 and if I am going to do any mod to it with $500, I would just get some springs to it.
yorba linda is so much more than half and hour from pasadena man! How fast do you drive =p I would say it's about 1hr without traffic, but hey if you enjoy the ride it's all good.!
does this work the same for speed3? I am about to do mine but wanted to make sure it doesn't turn into a weekend project if more tools or supplies are needed.
"And one final thing.... i bought my MS3 used..... i have asked the dealership and they didnt know and i looked around but i dont know how to tell which kind of MS3 i have.... the touring or GT or whatever kind..... any easy way to tell?? please let me know lol"
man which stealership did you...
that's what I had on my p5 and I definitely loved them.
Just FYI it's hard to keep them in good condition because they are flush with the tire, so drive careful. You won't belief how hard it is to find Mint condition ones.
also, Tokico blue with H&R spring will give you a best lowering.
I am sure you can bypass it, but I will wait until I see a "how-to" before doing it myself (or get my buddy to do for me since I don't trust myself with any electronics heehee)
