What have you done to your MS3 today?

[fishdonotbounce]

side mounts are in

i now have massaging seats

Car feels like one solid mass now doesn't it?

 

[8.5MS3]

vibes arent THAT bad. i have 88 duro all around, dogbone in the rear

clutch noise is annoying, much louder, also can hear the throwout bearing and chatter

BUT shifting is redonkulous now

i just gotta turn up the radio to 30 now. no more quiet conversations in the car

i dropped the hammer in 3rd around 2500 and left a set o 11s at least 100 feet long, ZERO wheel hop, even with blown shocks

lol my wheels are too heavy for such things.

8.5, do you have stiffer springs/coilovers too? I've noticed a big difference with the trans and rear mounts with the coilovers. I can get a little bit of right foot induced push too. The passenger side mount was a far smaller improvement, but you could tell it was broke when it was broke.

 

[8.5MS3]

stock springs
blown shocks
Topspeed Solid LCA bushings
hotckis sways full stiff in the rear (how gay does that sound!)

 

[Rotus]

Ooo, you gotta get some coilovers.

lol, that did sound pretty ghey, NTTAWWT.

[fishdonotbounce]

Put on the stock shift knob. I can't make up my mind.

I bought the JBR first when I got the car. Then I switched to a black spherical knob, non weighted. Now I'm back to stock because it looks so damn clean haha.

getting awesome gas mileage now

every time i get on the gas the car sounds like its wound to 5k, then i look down and its only 2k lol

im at 215 miles on this tank and have 1/3 left, this may be the first time the trip computer will hit 300 miles in almost 40k of ownership

The amazing gas saving tornado?

 

[Tronspeed3]

Washed and waxed!

I am also getting a CEL for p0300 random misfire...changed the plugs cleared the code and it came back again. Car starts like s*** and doesn't have a constant idle, I think the EGR is stuck open causing the issue. I had cleared the code for the EGR flow like 4 times before the misfire code started.

 

[Domino81]

Fabulous

Don't you mean, Fabulous!

Did you clean out the EGR any of the times you got the code?
