What have you done to your MSP today?

[theEZV]

lol

 

[evilmonkeyMSP]

hell yeah

with fingersnapping?

 

[GiJoe]

hell yeah

can I join... I can only snap with one hand though, I can tap both my feet to make up for it though

 

[FlyinHawaiian]

ROFL this thread is awesome. Yes, there is finger snapping, but instead of dancing, we do e-brake turns...

EZV - yeah man, Travo83 (MS3) D-rock240 (been MIA bud has his Sand Mica MSP conversion), and myself do stuff all the time! You need to join up with us! I'd like to get all the Mazdaspeeds in the area to come to this thing with us so we can crash it properly. Think about it, we're always fighting off people telling us that we own WRXs, now we can finally fight back! I'll get date details...

Wow, I see some sig-quotes

Should be able to do it with AXR rear sway bar brackets. After I installed mine, my MSP behaves like a RWD when pushing turns. (I also have a rear strut tower bar, which probably contributes to this...)

GTSpec strut bar is en route... axr would be great... lil pricy though.. and I want to take a good autoX run before I install em so I can truely appreciate the change. lol

Yeah, they're kinda expensive new. I bought mine used off the forums for $180 shipped. After installation and a 4-wheel alignment I think it was worth every penny.

 

[Wagonbacker9]

yeah, thats my other issue... front dropped on spools for a few months now, haven't gotten an alignment yet.. i fail.

 

[FlyinHawaiian]

I bought the AXR fix new, and it was totally worth it. I also did a cost/benefit analysis between the two, and the AXR is cheaper in the long run - for me. My car has low enough miles that it would be better to get the fix and not have to replace the bushings again, rather than replace the stock ones every 15,000 miles or so...

The car behaves very differently now and I have had to re-learn to drive it a little. It handles better (didn't think that was possible) and is much more neutral than before.

 

[protegerider]

just hit 99,000 miles a few days ago. im changing the oil today and cleaned the interior

 

[evilmonkeyMSP]

ugh, poor MSP needs an overhaul. The next oil change I need to:

1 - Seafoam
2 - change oil
3 - change plugs
4 - replace belts
5 - new rear bushings
