Howdy, I am finally replacing my shocks and springs and want to know how far down people have cut their bump stops. Also, have people cut their boots down to fit better or leave them the same length. I've replaced the suspension 2 times on my 08 MS3 (and once on a friend's MZ3 with OE...

Hello, I just bought a MZ3 a few months ago and am plannning a fun spring of fluid changes and wanted to know if the AT fluid can be changed in my garage or if I have to take it somewhere. I hear that some AT have to be pressure flushed and pressure filled...true? This is my first AT...

Hello, I have some Koni FSDs that I am planning on installing on my new old MS3 sedan (2005) and I wanted to see what spring people are matching with them on their cars. I have only had the car for about a month, so this is the first mod on this car. Currently I am think that I will either go...

After moving i ended up with my roommates stock suspension (all 4 corners) and his engine cover. I'm thinking that he put about 15-20k on it. He doesnt even have the RX8 anymore (he got an M-coupe) and said that he didnt care what i did with them...so i'm selling them because they wont fit on my...

Okay, so below are a few things that i will not be able to install in the near future. I am moving from South Florida to St. Louis and would prefer not to have as much stuff as i do now. So, i am selling a bunch of stuff right now... Injen CAI: used for 3 months or so. the filter is a little...

Hello all... So as the title reads, i installed my BC coilovers, AWR endlinks, and Cobb sways this weekend...(drive2) These things are great! I was hoping for half of what i got. I am running full stiff on sways, 14 from soft in the front and 16 from soft in the back on the coilovers, and the...

Well, after all the work, i have finally put in everything...PG mani, CS DP, HKS SRI, and Prosport Premium boost guage... I do, however, have to say that those who said that i probably should have taken it somewhere...were probably right...but... Thanks again Nick (PG) for the advice! As soon...

Okay, so today i attempted to install my PG mani and my CS DP...yeah... First off the install was a total (yupnope) , which we all knew, but this is where it got fun After spending all freaking day taking the stock stuff off we tried to get the 2nd O2 sensor out and that didnt go so well...

Okay, so if you havent seen any of the threads that i have started about the ATP 3" MAF then here it is in short... I tried to get it to work...and i f#$king failed! Today i tried the fix that the ATP guy told me on the phone(blah). I put on the Boost Cut Killer module, which is a total *****...

I was wondering if i should heat wrap my CS DP before i install it this weekend... I have a ton, but all that i have to do is the PG mani, so i want to find a use for the rest... Any suggestions?

Okay, so i had some problems with the inlet at first (see thread in this section about 3" inlet and Injen intake problems), but it got figured out....by buying new s***!! Now, the problem is that when taking a test drive i had a complete loss of power at about 5500 rpm...not to mention throwing...

Does anyone know what CAI/SRI work with the ATP 3" inlet stuff... I tried to instal it with my Injen CAI and f#$*ing failed! I had to re-install the stock airbox...(notcool)... So... What CAI/SRI's can i use? And can i use the Injen one that currently have (because i love it and hope to keep...

Okay, so after much waiting and then getting a completely different wheel... Here are some pics. I will do a more updated pic thread after the coilover/sways install (probably at the end of this month)... I ended up with 5zigen Pro Racer GN+ Hyper Black 18x8.5 w/ 48mm offset because the...

So, my room mate just bought some SSRs for his 07 RX8 and we were rotating my tires today, so he decided to just throw them on for fun... Well, this is how it turned out... Oh yeah, they are 18x9.5 with a 50mm offset.... Well, i hope that these photos are as much a laugh to you as they were to us!!

Is there anyone out there running 17x8? If so, what offset are you running? I am thinking about buying 5zigen Fn01r-c 17x8 with a 43mm offset and i was just wondering how much work, if any, it was to make your 17x8's work. Thanks.

I am ready to buy a new suspension setup for my 08 MS3 and i am highly disapointed in to lack of 300+ spring rates for shock/spring or coilover setup. The only one that i have found is the KW Varient 2's. Anyway, does anyone run high spring rates or know of any setups with 300+ rates? Thanks.

I just traded in my Sand Mica 02 ES Pro today for a Black MS3!! I am so excited! I figured that i might as well buy a car that already has the body and engine work that i was about to do to my Pro (well, okay different body and engine, but you get my drift)... Good idea? I think so... Especially...

So, i just recently installed Hawk HPS pads and Goodridge brake lines on my 02 ES and now every time that i get on the brakes, even medium hard, the brake light goes on. The light stays on until i release the brake from a complete stop; however, if i do not come to a complete stop the light will...

Okay, so I know that suspension threads turn into very big, heated threads generally, but I just wanted to get some input on two coilover sets. First, The JIC Magic FLTA1 look pretty cool, but I really havent heard (or I guess that it would be read) anyone talk about that set. Secondly, any...
