What have you done to your MS3 today?

[PCspeed3]

how much were teh wheel locks? If you don't mind me asking. I have some for sale at the moment in FS forums and am curious. These are brand new from Mazda as well.

I got the wheel locks from the dealer for $35, i think they retail for about $45ish...the dude gave me a deal for some reason.....


JDM that is beautiful setup my friend, how does it ride now? How much lower did those drop you?

Nice, do you like that motor mount? Pro's/Con's? Also does anybody know if the SU Test Pipe will bolt directly on to a totally stock exhaust? -Thanks

 

[speedalot]

i love it. theres a little vibrations but its not too bad. i would actual prefer soemthing stiffer. the engine movement on start up has dfinately decreased a lot. havent really noticed any performance gains but im sure there are some.

yes, the stock test pipe will bolt on directly to a stock exhaust. i cant find a reason why it wouldnt. here you go. directly off the SU website

"The SU Test Pipe is a direct bolt on replacement for the second catalytic converter. For flexibility, it reuses the stock donut flange system to allow for necessary movement. The SU Test Pipe includes all necessary mounting hardware and instructions to make this installation a breeze. The removal of the 2nd cat will NOT trigger any check engine lights. The test pipe will bolt right up to both the stock and aftermarket catback exhaust systems."
have a nice day!

Thanks man, I will order those parts today! Sorry to play 20 questions but I searched and could not find anything. If I install a Cobb SRI and a Test Pipe at the same time will it confuse my ECU? should I install one then wait a few days?

 

[SwampAss]

no. you'll be fine.

just installed the TWM Short Shifter and Bushing. all i can say is wow.. i love it. shift good. easy to find all gears and it looks so nice sittin low. the throw is still kind of long. thought it be a little shorter then it is. but i can live with it. all in all.. great product.

Got the oil changed, Royal Purple. Had dealership put regular oil in a little ways back. I actually noticed the difference in a bad way. And I was again amazed again at the difference in vibration at idle upon startup. Synthetics are amazzing. But better yet for me, I had the the alignment done. Finally. The shop will align to my specs. These pieces have been installed over a the whole summer period. tires wheels springs anti sway bars etc. Wow. really. Wow. what a car I have. That is it for season good luck to all! eric

Find out where the local tuners go for alignments. A shop will just need to put running boards to the alignment rack to get you on.

Try to find a shop that does road race cars. There is one in my area and they have no problem with cars all the way in the weeds. Look for a shop that sells race equipement and ask them for a reccomendation.
