i was driving up on the blue ridge parkway in NC and i saw the temp gauge start to go up then i pulled over. when we checked the compression it was cyls 1-130 2-90 3-90 4-150. i heated up and blew the head gasket. the motor does have 203k miles on it..... luckily no warped head and no sever damage. just a lot of cleaning to do....

 

[2.0t03speed]

ahh ok a blown hg for 203k isnt bad at all to be honest im suprised it hasnt blown yet with all your mods. how much boost are you running?

 

[SCMP3]

stock boost levels. and the gasket isnt as bad as i would have thought it was

 

[tigermack]

Needz more poke!

Damn right it does. Those are my "winter" wheels. 17x7 +38 is somewhat aggressive on a mazda3 but I definitely want more. They're pretty flush but not good enough yet. When I sell my ms3 wheels and buy some 17x9's to replace them with she'll be looking better. I'd like to get Rota grids or dpt's in 17x9. Most likely bronze or gold.

The front lip and a new spoiler will be painted soon and installed in the spring.

whats the difference between the ms3 and ms6 wheels?

 

[HKPRO5]

the amount of spokes

 

[Goliat6288]

hmmm yeah i just looked them up and noticed... they are both hot. dam it now im not sure about the ms6 wheels for the milly. hey chef... when do you plan on sellilng them?

 

[Chefsp0t]

The ms3 wheels are listed for sale in the wheels FS section. They'd look pretty awesome on your car too. MS3 wheels = 18x7 +52.5 offset and ms6 wheels = 18x7 +55 offset. The ms6 wheels are a hair more sunk than ms3 wheels but you'll probably want spacers with either set.

bbrich- I am not too worried about parking lot curbs. I don't park close to them. My concern is pulling into driveways and hitting road debris. I already drag mudflap all the way down my driveway and occasionally over freeway bridge gaps. But you've gotta pay to play if you want to be low. I am hoping for another 1/4" in the front and another 1 1/4" in the rear to eliminate the rake I've got going on right now. Spring time is going to be exciting.
