true...very true......if i didnt get one, i was gonna look and try and get an Integra GS-R and do somethings to it. YES, i know its a honda but for some strange reason ive always liked those. i hate the way the RSX looks. Cant stand them, BUT an MSP is still VERY good too

 

[SPARCO3319]

hahaha...NEVER would i go over to the dark side!

 

[Dr.Sound]

yeah, RSX and Si (new Si) suck monkey balls.

older integras are sweet, my buddy has a turboed gs-r........eats gt mustangs for breakfast.

Dr. Sound

Question---which did/do you like better, the orange 2003 or the titanium 3.5 MSP??

 

[Dr.Sound]

i would say get a used WRX.....
or a 2000 2.5 RS and turbo it.

a guy from a local subaru club has arround 300 to the wheels with a turbo on a 2.5 RS.

 

[SPARCO3319]

a turbo'd gs-r is like my dream car...(other than an S2000 supercharged)....what i would give for a black gs-r or type-r with a turbo! OH MAN!!!! (rockon)

 

[Dr.Sound]

hahahaha

dude, i've been asked that as many times as i have posted on this forum

i love them both! they are very different cars in my eyes.
i got much more attention in the orange. but the titanium is very smooth lookin'.........with it's dark wheels. much more balanced in its apperance.

 

[SPARCO3319]

i had never driven a turbo car until i got my Black Mica. But now that i have driven one, i dont know if i can live w/out a turbo. One thing i did love about our cars is the GOBBLE. Very different sound from a BOV......i would like to have a turbo'd RS 2.5 or a WRX but the WRX maybe a little to out of my range

 

[SPARCO3319]

very true....alot of people i know dont like the titanium but ive told them exactly what you said..its smooth lookin w/ the darker wheels. A guy around here has one. Most people thought my Black Mice looked better (which it did) but i think the titanium is still very sweet....the only thing i dont like about the 3.5 is that they dont come w/ SPARCO stuff. i LOVE sparco!!!! (hint: notice my name)

 

[Dr.Sound]

well, that's like 80 bux to get the pedals and the knob
no biggie, i actually like the "mazdaspeed" pedals better
my foot slipped on the sparcos.....an instructer actually pointed that out at the track once when he drove my orange car. it's not the pedal covers' fault, it's just the position of the actual pedals on MSP.

i took the titanium to the track 2 weeks ago, the mzdspd pedals felt much better.

i dont like the mzdspd knob though, still use my old sparco

i'm sure u unscrewed the sparco knob when they picked up your car......didnt u?

 

[Nextruss]

Im not sure of this or not, but i read that on the 2003.5, the pedals and knob are still sparco products.

 

[SPARCO3319]

NO I DIDNT...i need to do that though....the guy that towed it out i know and its sitting at his shop so i will go and get it off there tomrorow..thanks for the idea though. BUT i thought that you couldnt take stuff off the car because all of it came stock on the car??????

 

[Dr.Sound]

bs!
u lost it when it flipped!

oh, and Nextruss, sparco stuff was replaced by mazdaspeed stuff because "sparco became very hostile with us for reason unknown, that's why we pulled sparco products out of MSP"
-quote by one of the mazda corporate employees

 

[Nextruss]

i see...hehe...thnx

 

[SPARCO3319]

hahahah...yea, actually i took off the radio faceplate. Gonna see if i can sell that. (hopfully)...guess ill be makin a trip to the body shop tomororw and getting me a shifter........hopefully i can post pics of my car sometime soon

 

[Dr.Sound]

well, i dont think u can sell the faceplate....maybe for like 5 bux.

but shiftknob u can use in all of your future cars (given that they all will be stick) to remind you how lucky u were

 

[Nextruss]

I did see the mazdaspeed shift knob on ebay with over 20 bids at $120...starting bid was $5

 

[Dr.Sound]

not the one we have i bet

 

[Nextruss]

The one on ebay was the exact same one from a 2003.5
