    Best way to soften the suspension?

    I am over the harsh ride of this car as I am not barreling through corners enough to take advantage of it. I don't mind a stiff suspension, but of all the sport compact cars I have owned this car takes it to an extreme. What are some ways to give this car a more comfortable ride? I was thinking...

    Any way to turn off the panic button on the remote?

    I hate the design of this remote...it's way too easy to hit the red button. I hit the stupid panic button when I don't want to and it is loud as hell. Anyone cracked the remote open or done anything else to disable it?

    Anyone running 17s on thier MS3? Opinions?

    I am thinking when it comes time to get new wheels to get 17s instead of 18s. Lower unsprung weight for better performance, and better ride quality. Going from the 24.5 lb stock wheel to a ~16 lb aftermarket 17" wheel would drop the unsprung weight by about 38 lbs...that seems pretty...

    Random Misfire CEL at 900 miles

    MS3 Random Misfire CEL at 900 miles Just got a "random misfire" CEL at just 911 miles. Engine was already warmed up plenty, went on boost and the CEL came on. They are keeping the car overnight. Anyone else gotten this? I did a search, but came back with nothing for the MS3 on this issue.

    MZR being upgraded to 2.5L for 2009

    I looked around but didn't see this posted anywhere. While this is hardly a "major redesign" like they say in this article (I can't find any significant differences besides the dual exhaust), they do mention that there will be a displacement bump to 2.5 liters...
