2010 MAZDASPEED3
Hello everyone,

I am happy to announce that I am a proud new owner of a velocity red 2010 Mazdaspeed3 with the tech package! I have done a lot of research before taking the plunge, and have looked at the MS3, Subaru Impreza WRX hatchback (the STI was out of the question because of its price tag) and the Mitsubishi Ralliart and have concluded that the MS3 has the best bang for the buck, considering that AWD was not a must have for me.

So, I am happy to join the Mazda owners community, learn a thing or two and keep myself and this beautiful thing out of trouble :)

My last car was a 2007 Toyota Yaris Liftback, base model (didn't even have a radio when I bought it), which I owned for the past 3.5 years. I was bit by the car modding bug last year and did quite a few things on the Yaris: sport suspension, light-weight pulleys, short shift kit and even a supercharger since February this year. But eventually I felt like I needed a more grown-up toy ;)

So, here I am. Even though it's only been 24 hours and I haven't even made the first payment yet, I'm thinking of a few things I'd like to do to it. I'd like to get a short shift plate, tint and maybe a CAI.

Does anyone know if any of the available CAI/SRI's are legal for California (CARB)?

Here is my red beauty, bone stock (for now) :)

Welcome!! love your car...

About the CAI/SRIs, Corksport has a SRI... Last June they were still trying to get that CARB out of the way, maybe theyve already succeeded in making them legal over there?? I still havent installed it yet since im still missing the pliers from the tools checklist, but as soon i get them, ill spend a nice sunday morning with my MS3...
