    MS3 Loose Stabilizer Bar Nut - Clunks from the rear

    I've been having a similar issue. My suspension is stock, and I only get the clunk at super-low speeds, and always when the wheel is turned a good amount to the right, backwards or forwards. The usual times I hear it are pulling out of my garage backwards while turning, and turning into the...

    07 MS3 GT Bose Sub - Direct swap?

    You've got me 90% convinced not to try this, or at least not to expect any good results from it. All I can think of is that some good sound deadening in the doors would alleviate some of that muddiness. After that, if it sounded like butt, at least I'd only be out $65+ cost of materials, and...

    07 MS3 GT Bose Sub - Direct swap?

    Good thoughts here, thanks guys. Still no copy/paste ability so I'm going to break this into multiple posts. Agreed, but for the $65 the eD sub costs, if it turns out sounding better, then great - if not, I'm sure I can find a use for it. I think that the eD will be capable of some lower...

    07 MS3 GT Bose Sub - Direct swap?

    I'm considering ways to improve the Bose system, and I'm thinking of replacing the sub with an eD 7Kv.2 in a new box, in the same location as the bose one, and using the same wiring. This would be inexpensive and fun to try, imo. Info on the eD sub can be found at http://www.edesignaudio.com...

    S2000 / MS3 Comparison

    Wow, raising up the front of the seat might be exactly what I need to do. Awesome idea. I've adjusted it every which way but it never feels quite right with my long legs. Did you guys use a spacer of some sort? Did you need longer bolts?

    Turbo Back Exhaust Packages - $950

    An O2 bung is just a threaded hole in the piping, for connecting an O2 sensor. The first 2 bungs are used with the stock O2 sensors. The CEL fix usually involves adding a piece which acts as a spacer between the bung and the stock O2 sensor, but I believe the fix is actually built into the...

    Any Good Atlanta Mazda Dealers?

    Hennessey Mazda is also kind of crap. I bought my car there, but took it to Jay Mazda in Columbus for the mount recall.. about the same distance from me.

    forge bov's for ms3/ ms6/ cx-7

    I got my Forge recirc valve yesterday, thanks Ken! Installed it today, and my description of the noise when shifting under full boost would be a short clang along with/followed by a brief high-pitched whistle. Under less boost, it's just the whistle, and a bit quieter of course. The sound is...

    mazdaspeed3 engine mount recall!! ATTN

    I called wednesday and got an appointment for today. Yesterday I called again to make sure they were thinking of the same recall I was, and not the floor mat one or the various TSB's. The nice lady explained in detail the procedure for the engine mount... went right along with the PDF's someone...

    Japanese Quality?

    If it bothers you, see if the dealer will fix it under warranty. There's no reason you should have a brand new, crooked fascia / hood. It shouldn't be your responsibility to make sure everything is installed right on the car, that's what Mazda has quality control for. If they won't cover it, I...

    Cleanest Boost Gauge install on MS3

    That looks very clean. Do you think a 60mm gauge would fit? It looks like there's a few mm's of space left on the edges. Also, would some sort of rotating mount be possible, like a ball & socket type setup with the gauge being mounted in the ball? This might help alleviate the sun glare issue...
