Nice. Don't ever say you don't have a speed. They will start bashing the shit out of you. lol

The crowd is total different from AZ, a lot of them are assholes, but they know they are assholes. So, at least they are honest.

^ Yes, you will learn SO MUCH! Oh yeah, before I forget, donate like $10 to the site and get an avatar right away. msf members are overly sensitive on that part.

I basically had no idea how the turbocharged cars work and whatnot... but now I'm starting to get it a little.

And once you get your Cobb Accessport and learn how to use AccessTUNER software, you will learn ALOT about how cars really go.

No, you don't have to pay, but if you are going to be active at the forum. You should donate like $10.

People over there always say this to all the newbies. "DONATE, GET A FUCKING AVATAR BEFORE YOU POST" :ROFL:

Just trust me and do it.

Engine Oil?

Pennzoil Platinum 5W-30

You put 5.5 qts, so I just buy 11 qts at a time since you can use the leftover for the second oil change.

I use Mobil 1 filter.

Good luck tomorrow!

i feel like the MS3 doesnt fit my personality. and after i said it, many of my friends agreed.

id be happy in a 06+ TSX or a newer Type-S

but, i hate the fact that the TL-S hasnt really lost its value. ive found 07s online that are going for about 26k still

I'm curious why you just came to this decision?

Are you serious about a TSX? If it's not the new gen V6 you're going to snooze behind the wheel of a 4 banger after having a MS3. A Type-S I can see being a good replacement, but yeah, the pre-owned market on those is crazy expensive for what they are.

idk, the car just seems too tunerish to me. i was happy with it but its kinda wore off.

i settled on the color. never settle. i hate black.

im not loooking for speed anymore. i dont need a fast car, hence i was considering a TSX.

and for some reason, after driving stick again for a solid three months, i cant drive this car smooth if my life depended on it.

i cant even hustle the car without missing a shift

on my way to the coast last friday, (i dont know if its because i worked 11p-7a, then drove, which is what ive been doing for the past year) i meant to go from 6th to 4th to pass, and went into 2nd. i clutched in just in time, but idk.

idk. maybe i lost the touch.

sounds like you need to install your intake and order some JBR rear motor mounts

in all seriousness, do you miss the luxuriousness of cars? something that has more mature feeling to it?

i mean you don't need a fast car doesn't really make sense because you don't have to drive your car fast all the time, you know?

do you REALLY want to get a TSX or TL-S?

I was SOOOOOO close on trading in my car for a brand new fully loaded MX-5 couple months ago, but I'm so glad I didn't do it. In retrospect, I think I would have regretted in getting rid of my MS3. I've been loving my car even more after all that distraction.

I think you are just really tired working night shift. that's hard.

If you really want to get rid of it, let me know. I have someone who is trying to find a good used 1st generation mazdaspeed3.
