Real sports cars come in systems other than traditional manuals ...manuals and true paddle shifting systems like Audi's DSG, what was SMG (for BMW since they're discontinuing it) and whatever other TLA for Ferrari's system and Porsche's future clutchless system. You should see the shifts in...

Tiptronic is the trademark name from Porsche's automatic system with the ability to select which gear is used. Audi used/got that system from Porsche, and legally complied with using the Porsche trademark name. You probably heard the name enough that it is becoming symbolic with all other...

17x7 +40mm offset gets the okay on TireRack.com Knowing tireracks good reputation, I have confidence that if they suggest 17x7 with a +40mm offset.. then that should fit fine without rubbing. If the rim you want is equivalent in size with rims that tirerack allows for (and assuming you'd use...

My parents had the dealer teach before buying an MX-5. Usually they'll be willing to spend a bit of time to teach you the basics in order to get going (if you're nice and didn't squeeze them for everything when dealing on the price).

How are your boosted mods holding up against winter/salt? Any maintenance required? That was another one of my concerns.

I'm not good with mechanical stuff. I tend to break everything I dissassemble and assemble. Hence, I'm looking for good shops in MA (closer to Boston is better).. specifically to install the HiBoost kit for a Mazda3. Any recommendations? Also, those with turbos added to their Mazda.. do you...

Hey, how is it going with Unlimited Motorsports? I'm looking for references of good work, good people, and hopefully fair prices. Basically I'm looking into finding someone that is better able (I'm a menace to mechanical stuff) to bolt on the Hiboost kit for the Mazda3. I wish there were a...

Aiye that's one ugly interior Looks like a parrot choose the colour scheme for that interior.

Second 'tint-king' in billerica Good guys, good work, and fair prices. A group of us (6 Audi's) went in together on it... followed by another group of 4 Audi's. Everyone was happy with the work/cuts.

Dunlop M3 ...excellent winter tires. Price is good (not cheap), handles highspeed highway cruising well, and excellent snow grip. I like them. Noise is very acceptable for a winter tire imo... quieter than my toyo t1-s summers anyhow.

Any Mazda tuners in MA? especially hiboost experienced ones? Second that. I'm still trying to figure out who in Massachusetts is trust worthy. I know of good Audi tuners here.. but this would be the first time with Mazda. In a way, I'd just find an Audi tuner to bolt on the stuff since...

imprint of the brake pads is another cause If the brake pads were sitting on the rotors and there was moisture in the air (or rainfall during that period), then the other problem is that the semi-metallic brake pads (I'm assuming the pads are SM) may also leave extra residue on the rotors...

driving 55 on the freeway in a Turbo? ...gotta do that so everyone can see you. Isn't that the way in Cali?

No SP23 for '06. Instead, you order a package that pretty much emulates the SP23... the beauty is that now you can get it in any exterior colour (cause grey wasn't necessarily liked by all that wanted the Sp23 amenities).

Is that why a manifold is part of the hiboost kit? Is that why a manifold is part of the hiboost kit? I didn't know that. Q: with the hiboost kit.. will the car still pass the yearly emissions tests that many states require? (Massachusetts in particular ;)
