    Driving in 5th

    I'm still rather confussed on what is true. I think that if you aren't accelerating or going up a hill and making your engine labor you could be ok, but at the same time I think that 4th would be a much smarter gear to be in and have very similar gas gains without adding any strain on the...

    Driving in 5th

    Hey guys. I have a quick question for ya. I was having a conversation with a co-worker the other day and he said that he drives around town in 5th. I'm talking driving about 30mph-50kms in 5th gear. I told him I thought that was bad for his car and if I was him I wouldn't do that. He claims that...

    Best Calgary Service Dealership

    Hey guys. I bought my car from Kramer Mazda and it was a very enjoyable experience. But I can't say that I know anything about their service dept. I'm almost due for my first service and would like to know peoples opinion on who has the best service department in Calgary. Any info is appreciated. :)

    Wheel hop on 2008 M3

    Actually the M3's do get wheel hop. I experience it quite often if I lay on the gas. Not sure why it seems so surprising to ya?

    INtake help

    I did tons of research on hydro locking with a CAI and trust me, unless you are actually submerging the intake in water you should be fine. As far as brand names go I bought the Mazdaspeed CAI and have been very happy with it. Car pulls much harder than it did before with it on.

    MS CAI installed

    Great! I love my CAI also and definitely rank it as one of my better mods for the price.

    Spoiler?

    I have a 2007 Mazda 3 GT sedan and have been thinking about adding a factory spoiler. What do you guys think? Spoiler or no spoiler? Thanks in advance.

    I will for sure get my car lowered sometime this summer. I have to do one thing at a time. The girlfriend almost killed me as it is for buying the wheels. Hehe. Women I tell ya.... their priorities are so different than ours..(scratch)

    Most people I have talked to that have them really like them. They look great and have really good build quality for the price. While they aren't the lightest I have seen, they definitely have the best fitment out of all the wheels I looked at. I'm looking forward to putting them on the car once...

    Thanks for the positive feedback guys. I'm pretty happy with them also. jp4130 has never said anything positive about my choice in wheels. First wheel I picked he said offset was terrible, second set is too heavy. LOL, your a hard guy to please dude!! I have to say that I'm not a rich dude and...

    I have a regular 3. If I had the MS3 I would definitely go with 18". As far as looking around at other rims, I have done my homework. This rim is a good quality rim at a good price. Not sure how I could do much better price wise than what I'm paying. I think that they look really good too imo.

    Hey guys. Just thought I would show ya the wheel I'm going with now. I was going to use the Konig Feather before, but the offset was off by 7.5mm and I ended up thinking that was too big of difference. I am now going with the ASA AR1 wheel. It is heavier, but has a almost perfect offset. 52mm...

    I really need someones help

    Man....I really feel for ya bud. That totally sucks. I'm not sure what you can do, I don't have what you need for one thing, and I also live in Canada so I wouldn't be much help to ya even if I did. Just giving my condolences. Hope things work out for the best and you can get everything fixed.(sad1)

    Konig Feather

    I have done some research on this and from what I have found out is that anything 10mm and under will work fine. Going with a light weight rim was very important to me, but at the same time I don't want to mess with any of the suspension dynamics. I have read that I will actually get improved...

    Konig Feather

    Well according to the guy I'm doing business with they work fine. He has shown me pics with the same rims on our car.

    Konig Feather

    Lol, sweet indeed. As far as the wheels go, I don't think you can beat them for the price. Extremely light weight and good durability. I think they will look really aggressive once they are on the car. I didn't want anything to flashy but at the same time I wanted to make a statement. I have...
