Let's see some Mazda3 5-doors

[xsists]

The ride/handling is fine, but could be better. The ride is good but I would like more grip. I am probably changing the look all together but right now its too soon to tell. As far as selling them, I'll keep you in mind if I decide to.

^ Thanks.

Mack, I love the car man.. Sucks to hear that you didn't place well in SD.. When did you pull the front fenders?

 

[tigermack]

I pulled the fenders a few months ago... had to do it for the 285's. I didn't place well but oh well, now that I been to a bigger stage in my car... I think I can become more relax next time and not be so nervous before I drive. hahaha

 

[SRH_3GT]

What mods have you done to it for autocrossing?

^ Thanks.

Nice pics Tigermack! Sweet 3! Can't believe you got 285's to fit! That's insane!

Here's a few pics of mine from this last weekend's AutoX at Lincoln Airpark (the site of the SCCA Solo Nationals) in Lincoln, Nebraska...

 

[SRH_3GT]

Ohhhhhh....... Your Mazda has something that I want. How does the exhaust sound with the Borla? Does it sound like a ricer or does it sound nice and deep?

Hmm... it's a long list... I will just copy and paste my list from the other forums.

A few new shots

 

[sunrun176]

Nice...!

 

[Andrew K.]

Whats the tint on that car? thanks.

 

[YearOfTherat]

Whats the tint on that car? thanks.

I kept it legal, its 35%...

 

[Andrew K.]

I kept it legal, its 35%...

Well i really like it. It keeps the classiness of the car. I feel like when people have the windows super dark it looks like they painted them black, in my opinion I think 35% looks real clean.

I've got about a million pictures of my car. I'll link you to the Photobucket album and just post my few favorites.
