    Thanks Mazda!

    I emailed Mazda a couple of weeks ago and asked (nicely) where my paint was. Just got a response today that they had run out of black mica but my bottle was in the mail today. Now I have to go put a few scratches on the car to make it worth the wait.

    Going with Cobb Springs. Do i need MS Camber Kit?

    I had the Cobb stage 2 suspension installed a while ago, waited too long to go in for an alignment, and now the shop is telling me I NEED a camber kit. Everything I've read states that you shouldn't need one with the cobb setup. Anyone know what the factory camber range is for a Speed3?

    Cobb Stage 2

    I just ordered my Cobb stage 2 suspension from street unit. Through Monday (I think) SU is giving 7 percent off with coupon code black07. Free shipping, no sales tax, plus the discount, I saved about $100 on it.

    What have you done to your MS3 today?

    Installed the SU rear engine mount. Easy install, less than 30 minutes. Plus, it gave me an excuse to buy ramps and a torque wrench.

    Kosei K1 TS

    Anyone have these wheels? Any thoughts on price, weight, fit? Just starting to look at wheels and the Ray's are too expensive for me. Also, googling these wheels, it seems that most use them for the track. Any reason why they wouldn't be suitable for general street use...

    Next Time You're Looking for a "Kill"

    When I first got my license, I wanted a V8 camaro and my dad bought me a used 4 cylinder Capri. Never even thought about racing that thing. The old man was smarter than i gave him credit for.

    Next Time You're Looking for a "Kill"

    Don't make it this kind: http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-reckless11oct11,0,6722658.story?coll=la-home-center It's easy. If anyone ever wants to race me on the street - they win. The guys in the story are now being charged with second degree murder. And they deserve it.

    dealer recommendation in southeran calif

    Galpin quoted me a god awful price for the CAI. Every time i've been there they treat me with the usual sales BS. I bought mine from Alhambra Mazda and they were easy to deal with. I was on the lot today getting my car serviced and they had a red MS3 sport and a black MS3 GT there.

    What have you done to your MS3 today?

    At 7500 miles, synthetic oil change and service, Redline MT-90 in the transaxle, and finally got an MS CAI. Pleasantly surprised that it isn't too much louder in everyday driving.

    Cobb CIA

    Anyone know if it's CARB certified? I emailed Cobb twice but have yet to get an answer. I'm assuming that it's not.

    Tell me how good the CAI is...

    Speed3girl, how much louder is it, at idle, low rpm, freeway, and wide open? The only thing stopping me (cuz frankly, the car already has more hp than I should be allowed to have) is that it might be too loud for my kids. They hated my last car (a GTI VR6 with a magnaflow) after I changed the...

    One silver on the road in Pasadena, one red at the dealership in Alhambra waiting for service.

    Anyone Else Notice A Difference?

    Go to a different dealer. My car seemed fine until AFTER I had the recall service done, then two weeks later, I started getting shift clunk. I took it back to the dealer and this time they replaced everything. So far so good.

    What have you done to your MS3 today?

    I bought some adhesive back black felt at a craft store and got rid of a lot of rattles, in particular coming from the center console.
