Hey Lazer Blue, love the car. Makes me think of a Speed6 for some odd reason.

 

[Laser Blue]

Thanks, man. I'm loving it too!

I showed it off today at work. Everyone at work asks me how fast it is and what I've done. Keep in mind I just finished my first week at the new job. No one believes me that I'm turboed! However, my custom catback straight pipe does gather some interesting looks. Best response I've heard in a while (from a guy who is from Bosnia and drives a G35)

"Doesn't sound like any Mazda I've ever seen."

Priceless.

[Wagonbacker9]

still trying to figure out how to fit them behind the fog deletes

 

[Wagonbacker9]

theres enough space for a small set... just mounting would be tricky...

 

[mgerst1]

I know

Here's a question I've never seen asked or answered...

Does anyone know what the stock 03.5 shift knob weighs?

I'm thinking about finding one that won't feel like grabbing a fistfull of ice cubes this winter, but want to keep the height and weight consistent.

I suggest saving money and buying a cheap pair of gloves at the local thrift shop and when you park overnight put a glove over the shifter. Simple cheap solution that does not involve buying a new shifter. If you dont like that buy a pair of hobo gloves (where the fingers are cut off) and use them to drive. A thick wool sock works for covering the shift knob too to keep it from getting really cold

haha... i gave my shift knob to my grandma and had her make a cover for it out of yarn. Hey it works and keeps it from burning my hand when i park in the sun.

 

[Wagonbacker9]

i put in a snap on screwdriver... rubber and plastic shouldn't get too cold. lol

I use a iPod fleece sleeve to cover my shift knob. Fits perfect and is fleece so you know my knob is comfortable. .....That sounds awsome.
