03.5 Mazdaspeed Proteg Titanium
Sup guys, today I bought a black 03 MSP. 42k on the clock, got it for hell of a deal. Only issues so far is the heat doesn't work, scratches, and I need to take the tints off. I honestly say I really love this car! It handles like its on rails!

Welcome and congrats on your MSP. You picked the best color, by the way! :D

Welcome!

I'll bet your heat problem is very simple. Take your glove compartment out, look on the heater control cable (lower left when you look in the opening). There is a little metal clip on the cable that is supposed to be attached to a tab sticking out of the box. You'll know what I mean when you see it. My heat stopped working one day, and that was the problem. Good luck

thanks man ill look.

Guys appreciate the comments, and yea I LOVE the black color. This is the first and only black msp ive ever seen too lol. Seen every color but black, go figure. Well of course I have plans for it. I'm moving across the country (to denver) for automotive school and tuning classes. So rent, insurance, and school payments are top priority. I think I might order a complete set or motor mounts before I go, I also need winter wheels/tires. I will be taking the car to the body shop for a buff so the car will look perfect. I'll eveentually mod everything. I don't have a ricey taste so you won't be seeing chrome rims or a body kit on my car. I'll keep you guys posted.

Heres a link to my last car and the restoration I did:

Welcome to the MSP World, you'll fall in love with your car even more when time passes... hahah and about the color i don't agree with ya. Titanium is the best color of the msp, not cause i own one but... black is also nice !! if you need any advice we are all here good luck !!!!!!!
 
thanks guys. i got my heat to work. and Bacon was right, it was the cable on the temp control. i ordered a new one. I just order 200 bucks in parts, all stuff for a tune up, flushing all fluids, light bulbs, taking HID's out (they are low beam only, i need highs). ill make a thread once i get pics going.

Mazdaspeed20035, love your car man, beast!
 
welcome and enjoy the car. i have a black msp as well! yes, i love it ..... when it's clean. LOL
 
nah i dont need it for inspection its just a thing of mine. i dont believe in taking out something important like hi beams. in ct where i live is alot of woods driving so i need to see far ahead.
