What have you done to your MSP today?

i like how the fmic is bigger than your rad ha ha . now i want one <_<
 
ROFL...looks like mine except minus the front mount and add a bungee cord holding the hood down and some zip ties keeping the fender wells away from the tires.

My fender liners were held in place by zip ties! I couldn't bring myself to use duct tape no matter how much of a laugh I would of gotten out of it.


that brings back memories. Test drove it like these just incase i had to get to a pipe quickly

I actually kinda liked rolling around like that but at the same time it screamed try me to all the ricers. Also it screamed come kick me in for some punk ass kids.
 
Hey Neox I blame you on your motor falling apart, the builder is at fault.

I hope your not taking a shot at me. I wasnt talking about neox at all. This is what, his third time fixing the car? He's obviously sticking to it ( not that he has to) I was referring to those who belittle the car when they mod it or race it and it falls apart. As I said it's not engineered from the ground up we all know it's faults. If ts not for you that's cool but don't hate, just move on

I would have real trouble giving up on the MSP even with all the little issues it has, but she still kicks most cars in the pants...in the same class anyway

Me too. Especially with all the tuners moving onto other cars and living on the middle of nowhere my cars really rare now. It's like highlander, there can be only one!!!
 
Dunno if I mentioned it or not but my bumper looks 100% after the repair I got done last week. wewt!

Drove it today. I just love that even after almost 6 years I still love driving and looking at this car.

glad to hear it. I fear repairs with the paint mazda chose. Even the simpler colors seem hard to match. Then again the guy who painted my cf hood might have just been an asshole and can't paintmatch.

The matching done on the Laser Blue was flawless. Even the metal flake matched. I cant even tell where I messed the thing up lol

started her up and drove her up the driveway. she's been sitting for 2 weeks. fired right up, no probs, even though i still have the original battery

i've been driving an ml350 for the past couple of months, pretty nice ride

does that mean I have to come down there and cut your motors head off LOL
 
Well I gotta be honest, that's the one thing I hate about my Spicy is matching the color (which is practically impossible). Mine was rear ended in a low speed accident. If you look at it you can tell it's been painted but in all honesty, the flake was done rather well. The orange is just a smidge off.
 
People i need urgent help in here. do any of you guys know what is the piston to cylinder wall clearance on ARIAS stock bore size 8.5:1 pistons ? thank you.. i have pull the head out of the engine, and the pistons have some slight shaft play, and i want to make sure is normal or ill need to get a new set of pistons.. thanks..

If you ever want to get that fixed I know somebody who can match that paint and does it for a pretty good price
 
^ Mazdaspeed20035,Im no mechanic but im pretty sure any play is bad, play causes shearing or snapping. i think you need new pistons
