those subs blow all the time. charles (friend here in houston) blew his out and he never even turns the radio up. but the dealer replaces them no problem.

[sickspeed94]

yeah i neglected to mention that the dealership replaces them no problem... dam i blew my driver door speaker too recently, i dunno if they'll replace that, and i don't want them to know mycar is modded, maybe i'll get some decent ones from like best buy

i seriously hope u didnt spend 18K on that car. its an 03 thats 3 car model years old (now were at 06). i bought my ES brand new for alil over 11k with 32 miles on it. your getting ripped off!! ive seen them here awhile back for lower than 15k. they r making a bank off u if you pay that much.

nono...its worth 18k... i traded in my protege lx for 3g's and it came out to be 15k... its not that bad... i think its worth it cuz these cars are barely seen... as soon as i seen this car, i wanted it sooo bad, test drove it and it came out to be one of the best cars i've driven...the clutch is sooo perfect, i can shift with ease...especially with that short shifter, takes less effort to shift then a long shifter... i dunno bout u...but i'm loving it and i can afford it... i wasn't gonna buy this kind of car out of state and s***... im not that type of person...

Welcome to the site. Just to let everyone who doesn't know, the MSP has a GT25-R stock turbo, and NOT just a mere T-25! If you think you like the car now, just wait till you get a boost controller (with supporting mods first of course!)! Not sure you are ready yet...

yea, my friends been saying stuff bout the boost controller... but i'm not ready yet, ive seen cars blow there pistons away by putting tooo much boost in... so ima hang off the booster part for now... till atleast i'm used to the car...then i'll do it later...

 

[sickspeed94]

take your time with the boost controler... lol, make saure you're running some synthetic oil and colder plugs... also, let the exhaust breathe and if possible that tiny intercooler... screw the intake but you alreadyhave it anyway...

also, grab yourself a helmet and go autocrossinG!

Be careful. I know the car looks good and drives great, but PLEASE read through this forum before you do ANY mods to your Engine. Trust everyone when they tell you this. My car blew up along with many others on this site. I miss the car i had just like yours but not the problems. Just wanted to give you my 2 cents and leave it stock.

 

[2K3 MSP]

it has the stock t25 turbo...but i has an injen cold air intake... so its pushing a little more than a stock mazdaspeed would do... next...exhaust...thats it...

yea i'll be careful... i ain't gonna pay 18k jus to wreck it... im hoping not to...

18K?!?! Good Lord.... I have mine up for sale with all my mods for $13.5K(the payoff) plus trade or $3,000 cash. It's negotiable, but I still think it's a lot to ask of someone.

You are getting ripped off on that price, I know you are in love with the car but please try to do some research.

http://www.buyanad.com/ViewItem.asp?ID=87905&fromsite=auto - $13,500 33k mi

http://www.showauto.com/viewfull.asp?ID=1295181&FromSearch=Yes - $16,800 23k mi

http://www.showauto.com/viewfull.asp?ID=1131067&FromSearch=Yes $16,900 11k mi

Don't let them play that number game with your trade. Sell your trade to a friend for what they are offering you on trade. They should be giving you at least 5k for your trade if they want to stick to that 18k sticker on the used MSP. Don't let them tell you the extra mods add value to the car, mods take away value of the car because the car is not complete.

Call a mazda dealership and get prices for all the parts which have been modified. Have them deduct the sum from what they are asking as it will cost you this price to get the car back to stock form.

he already bought it?

yea see, u got lucky... my kbb and edmunds says 18k sale price at a dealer... so thats wat dealers sell them... i wish i had the same price as u... hell, i got one jus like yours...jus a different body kit and rims... nice car man...

 

[ChiMSP]

BTW if it was 18k and you traded your car in to get 15k, its still adds up ti 18k regaurdless. Unless you donated your car to the dealership out of goodwill (dunno).
