    Goodbye Spicy Orange...

    Well, I had 48000 miles, clutch was dying, rear end squeaks returning again, huge windshield crack, braking thump, horrible stuttering (probably clutch related) and some odd buzzing coming from the tires. But I still loved the car. The MSP is a BLAST to drive. Funnest car ever, so quirky and...

    CustomMSP SMIC fitment sucks.

    CustomMSP SMIC fitment issues After returning from a 4 hour SMIC install... I paid 400 bucks for the SMIC, I knew turbohoses would have been better quality, but I thought that saving 200 bucks would be cool. After removing the fan and hardpipes, I placed the intercooler in, and it DOES NOT SIT...

    New Subwoofer!

    I just installed the MTX Audio T4508-04 8 inch sub in the stock location. Install was a pain in the butt until I figured out that I didn't have to take all the screws off the deck. Anyway it thumps 75% harder than the stock sub, and is 4ohms. Give it a try. Its awesome!

    HELP! Question!

    Does the Spec stage 1 clutch for the N/A Protege fit on the MSP? Or must I buy the 100 Dollar more expensive Spec Stage 1 clutch made especially for the MSP? What's the difference that justifies 100 dollars?

    who has Denso IK22s?

    Alright, I've done the searches, and this topic sucks. I don't care what other spark plugs are out there, who has the denso IK22s? How do they run? I just ordered them anyway, but I want to know. My stock plugs are crapping out on me majorly at 31k. My idle sucks, and my car feels like it has no...

    Hit 30k Miles! Service?!?

    Hey, What should I be doing with my car at this point? The stealerships charge 250ish to do a 30k mile service, and I know I don't need all the crap they do. What do I have to do to keep my car in service? Somebody give me a list so I don't have to pay for unneccesary crap.

    How to spell Warranty

    Hey guys, I don't want to seem like an a$$hole here, but this seems to be the most commonly mispelled word on the forums. I would like to believe that the average owner of our car has made it past Jr. High, so yeah... WARRANTY. There is no E.

    Feeling like an idiot.

    I'm holding the AWR front motor mount in my hand, and looking in the engine bay... and I have no idea where it goes. I've done searches and people say, just take off the three bolts. Where are these bolts? Why can't I see where this damn thing goes? Can someone post a picture of the installed...

    What Tires do You Use?!?!

    I just bought a set of Nitto Neogens, got em for about 440 installed. I notice that the traction is better, wheelhop is almost eliminated (without mounts), and overall performance is nice. However they are a little heavier (might just be cause my old potenzas were BALD) they feel like they...
