What have you done to your MSP today?

actually (and not to turn this into another one of these age-old discussions...) it isn't bad for the turbo....it's the sound of the air flowing through the crappy stock bpv, which is too small.....hence why the sound is GREATLY amplified when you drop in an Injen CAI

but again, not trying to start another argument about this like is already on here at least 50 bajillian times lol

there are arguments going both ways, just the facts point more towards this side to me than the other side

its the fact that the debate even exists that makes me want to be proactive and fix it by replacing the stock bpv with one with larger inlet/outlet pipes so either im gonna fix it by doing that or fix the compressor surge, and im either gonna fix a noise that is nothing but a noise or a noise that is bad for the car. i just like to do preventive maintenance when possible
 
got rid of my CEL (new primary 02), and my brake warning light (low fluid, so I put in new front pads)... My dash now only has the lights that it supposed to have lit!!! yay! haha. Btw, car makes some really cool turbo noises (but runs like crap) with the BPV pipe not hooked up LOL. woops.
 
Put on my snow tires, and took off almost all the CF on the car for the winter....I think I might get rid of all the CF on teh car in general....don't have time for the up keep of it any more.......

cough::cough:: GI on CF eyebrows,grill,hood, and mirror covers coming to a Mazda Forum near you soon....cough::cough::
 
yesterday I drove it to a small car meet and parked near the SEMA Nissan GTR (google "360 forged r35"), cried, and wished my car would transform into it

the sparco shifter and pedals come stock with the car, and it's not a short shifter, it's called eyelids not eyebrows, and are you laughing at your horrible english?
 
hehehe I was just gonna say I want some "eyebrows" for my MSP (thumb) and screw it, I'll get some of those racing spark plugs while I'm at it.

noticed a little smoke coming from the front passenger side the last two days from what i thought was under the hood. took a look under the hood and didn't see anything unusual, soot, burning, smells. then i noticed some shaking and vibration after driving the car for like 20 minutes. thought that was from rotating my tires over the weekend, and figured i needed an alignment. then i put two and two together and figured it had to be the brakes. sure as s*** the front passenger side is sticking and getting hot as balls by the time i get to work. just had the rear calipers fixed too like 3 months ago. guess it's time to look at the fronts.
