[nasa779]

hi everyone, i just picked up my speed 3 last night, and so far ive put 184 miles on her, and its been a blast...

what rpm do you guys wait until to hit boost?

the forecast is calling for light snow showers on thursday, will i be okay in light snow with the stock Dunlop SP Sport 2050s?

Welcome to the forum!

I usually wait until around 3k. As far as the snow, I wouldn't worry too much about it. I drove around in a decent amount of snow (couple inches) last month and it did just fine. Just take it nice and slow; use as little throttle as possible and you'll be fine.

whats up everyone i just got a 2011 speed3 on monday. injoy the car alot having a bit of a problem tho i having a hard time finding 9006 hid bulds that fit anyone have any ideas?

2010 speed's use h11 bulbs. I think the 2011 uses the same. Check your manual in the back. There's a good chart that shows what the speed uses. Don't get mixed up with a reg. 3 b/c I think they use 9006.

Congrats on the purchase! Which dealer did you get it from? I wasborn and raised in Pittsburgh, but now I live in Columbus. There are a few guys still there. Contact thejeans if you want to hang out with other Mazda guys and check out the Ohio section on here too. Very popular.

thanks man cuz i was tryin to put the 9006 in the fogs they dont fit cuz of that pc thats blocking it

No problem- I think I did the same thing once! The chart says * except 2.3 turbocharged. Haha small print and stupid asterisk! I think I'm going to get some nokya hyper yellow foglights b/c the lamin-x cover for the fogs are just not cutting it!
