welcome to the forums..post your location on your profile, you may have someone in your area. As far as your car not starting, are your battery cables corroded at all? Does your cables have a secure connection with the battery terminals? Do you have battery power at all(like does your radio and all other accessories turn on)

lol probably ur starter is worn out

check all ur fuses under the dash and under the hood.

possibly... you should take the wires off the battery, the make sure they are connected real tight...

 

[mazdaspeeeeed]

make sure you press the clutch down

I had that same problem on the terminals of a side mount battery. I've also experienced that the crappy battery terminals Mazda used ( i know hard to believe they used crappy stuff on MSP) after age they won't tighten together as much as needed. I bet if you grabbed ahold of your battery terminals and just twisted/pulled on them that they'd come off.

thats exactly what happend to mine. sometimes they come off loose and my car wont start so i just have to go pop the hood and tighten it again. just drive easy on bumps and stuff thats all i gott say.;
