I finally got all the mods put on my car. I installed Greddy tachometer on the dash in the back left corner. Kind of creates a blind spot but it is huge and the shift light was replaced with a 200 watt strobe light. When I hit my mark I know it. It lights up the whole car.

I also lowered the car about 2 inches. This was hard to do and I am not sure about the ride but it looks cool to be sitting so low. I had to get a different muffler so I could sound good while looking good so I got a huge 6 inch in diameter muffler from MRT. It sounds remarkable.

I pulled the wing off and added a four-stage Zero Sports wing to the trunk. Had to take it to the body shop to get the holes from the old one filled.

I put several tasteful stickers all over the car. I even got some extra stickers for parts I do not have yet. It looks real badass!

I used some moded parts from the euro wiper kit used on other imports and had to fab a few things out of sheet metal but I have a fully functional single wiper. Painted it lime green to contrast the yellow of the car, the stickers and the painted rims.

I will have pics up later in the week the weather is bad and I wanted some good shots.

Oh, I have a vinyl sticker across the top of my windshield that says MAZDA MP3

One more thing if anyone knows where I can pick up a euro wing kit for my MP3 I would be grateful. The one I have does not work that well. Looks good but not that functional. Thanks for the help and I will post pics soon.

Here's another unregistered poster. I bet he traded his Dunlops for some Moshimoto tires. Come on now guys....MRT (http://www.mrtrally.com.au/), if you know who they are, they are a Subaru specific manufacturer. He also says
Zero Sports (http://www.zerosports.co.jp/), if you go to their site, they don't even make a supposed 4-Stage wing, which I also have never seen in my life and they too are also a Subaru only manufacturer. Does the wing have any carbon fiber? Last but not least he says he has a GReddy (http://www.greddy.com/) Tach, and from what I've seen GReddy doesn't make Tachometer, nor do they have large warning light. Sorry guys, but until I see some pics and see him registered, I'm gonna have to wave the BULLSHIT FLAG. I not trying to start a battle online or anything, but it annoys me to see people posting really false information. :rolleyes:

Thanks to most of you for your positive replies and support. As for APEXistud you can kiss my ass! I will register before my next post I just figured why bother if I could post without it. I just was trying to save some time. I have a MRT muffler on my car because my friend with a 2.5rs swapped his exhaust and I got the muffler from him cheap. I figured a muffler is a muffler, right? It has nothing to do with the manufacturer of the car does it?

I call it a 4 stage wing because it is HUGE, please forgive me for not using the correct terminology. The tach is a Greddy I do not know what kinda crack you are on but that is what it says on the dial.

Why would you post such rude things if you were not looking to “battle”? I think you are a jealous ass because you wish you had the mods I do. Stop hating man and just chill out I will have pics by this weekend, weather permitting.


-Chris


P.S. I went to a suspension shop and they heated the springs until the car was at the 2” drop I was looking for. What they do is put blocks under the frame and heat the springs little by little until the car is sitting on the blocks. I am going to take it back in a month so they can do the final adjustment.

Maybe you should be the one to chill out bro, I'm not hating on anyone at all, just posting the facts. The parts you "may" have are rare and also expensive for the most part. I'm just a sceptic till I see pics. Sceptisicm is how a lot of people approach things on message board since a lot of people bable about things they've done to their car. Honestly, it's not a bad way to be coming for the Honda crowd where everyone says they have something and they never actually come through to prove it. Just like this one guy in Michigan I met that lived in Windsor, but was visiting my area. He told me and all the other WRX and 2.5RS guys I was with that he had a 22B at his has house with a whole sleugh of parts on it. He also went onto to invite all the Suby guys to his his the following weekend. Needless to say we never say him or the 22B since he was talking out of his ass. Anyway, I apologize for coming across a little rude, but hey this is a message board and everyone is entitled to their own opinions, so if you think I'm a prick for acting like that.....more power to ya. But, I did say I was sorry, so I hope you accept the apology and prove me wrong by posting some "highly anticipated", "here's your proof so shove it up your ass" pics :D

:eek: RICE :eek:

Did any of you read this dudes mods carefully? His mods were a HUGE tach that created a blind spot? What is that? Why in the world do you need a tach that huge? Then he indicates that he added a STROBE light!!!! :eek:

How about how this guy lowered his car? He HEATED THE SPRINGS!!! :eek: :eek: Please tell me you were joking when you told us how you lowered the car.

Then he went on to describe his six inch muffler and HUGE wing. That is RICE!! :eek:

This is the icing on the cake. HE put stickers all over the car and for parts he did not have. How RICE can you get.

Then and OMG he has a single euro wiper!! :eek:
Please dude tell me you are joking and I will be able to sleep tonight.

some jackass saw that page and was like:
well, let's see what the ricers say to that!

Hey you jackass, if you lower your car
you CAN NOT (!!!) have a 6" exhaust.
Go outside (oh, i forgot it rains - sorry)
and measure it!
Till then or i see pics - fuck off!
(Sorry, hate being so rude but wtf is that?!?)

Haha, this is freakin funny, hes just mocking you guys. I've been on this board for a few weeks now and it seems like a lot of MP3 owners likes the ricey look(Altezza's). My question is why??? The MP3 is great car the way it is.

10-25-2001, 01:32 PM
I agree with Steven Chris sounds to me like a fuckin V-8 owner trying to razz us. Please don't bite into this bullshit. And if this guy is for real I don't want to see a great car look like a piece of shit (not in my town). :mad: :p :mad: :p

<Chris>
10-25-2001, 02:02 PM
Say what is up with the haters? Why all you fuckers dissing me?

For your information MazdaMP I have a six-inch exhaust muffler not a whole fucken exhaust you illiterate fuck. The car is lowered 2 inches and the muffler clears just fine. I also have a eight inch cock that you can suck on.

What is up with the RICE shit MP3-Blue? Fuck you, you are a jealous fuck and need to shut the fuck up. My car looks 10x as good as your shit.

As a matter of fact I just got my racing seatbelts and Altezza’s in today and will install them tonight. I also have contacted someone to make me a “MP3-Type R” Decal to match the rear one on the bumper. It will look like the one that says MP3 but will read “MP3-TypeR” It will have a carbon fiber background. I am also going to get one made for the dash as well. If anyone wants one let me know ASAP.

I am really surprised that all of you are being so rude to me I thought it would be cool to talk about my mods with you people but seems like jealousy is in the air.

This posting area is getting a little heated. I just did a mod on my signature. See that. Who needs to lower their ride and put a big wing on it when you have a cool signature.

Steven C
10-25-2001, 03:21 PM
Chris, you're freakin hilarious. Exhaust and muffler are the same thing, hahaha I think you mean 6 inch tip. I said it before and I'll say it again, Altezza's are gay and ricey and only look good on the IS300/Altezza. And what is w/ the "Type R" sticker? Thats even more ricey and gay. I like the MP3 a lot, but it is FAR from a Type R.

<Chris>
10-25-2001, 03:37 PM
Steven exhaust and muffler are two different things. The exhaust is the entire system and the muffler is that can looking thing at the end. I think ass-munch earlier thought I had 6-inch pipe all the way from the header to the tip. The exhaust is stock except for the muffler that I replaced.

Dude what do you mean by “gay”. How is something “gay”. A person can be gay but not an object. As for the Altezza’s I think they look good. I like them even better on Yellow cars and that is why I got them. People already do not know what this car is so with the Type-R decal I will be even more mysterious.

-Chris

Steven C
10-25-2001, 04:02 PM
Chris, exhaust and muffler are the same thing. Now the piping, cat, headers, etc are part of the exhaust system. That was funny when you said you swapped a RS exhaust on your car. C'mon man....Type R stickers, you want to be more mysterious? All the people w/ real ITR's will just laugh at you, btw I have a ITR and I'm laughing at you.

<Chris>
10-25-2001, 04:14 PM
Steven you are talking out of our ass. An exhaust implies the whole system. The muffler is that can thing at the end. Muffler and exhaust are two different things. You have a what? ITR? What are you talking about?

-Chris

Steven C
10-25-2001, 05:56 PM
Chris, this is fun cause I'm bored at work, but the exhaust and muffler are the same. You're gonna put on a Type R sticker on and you dont know what an ITR is??? It stands for
Integra Type R.
You're just another rice boy.

I'm sorry for jumping the gun a little earlier, but seeing how you still haven't posted any pix, I'm gonna have to post another reply. Oh, and just to clear up the Tach issue GREDDY DOESN'T EVEN MAKE A TACHOMETER, I called today while I was checking on some parts for a friend and remember this post. So I asked them and he kinda giggled and said "nope, sorry, we don't sell Tachometers. So, I think you need to check your source of information. Maybe your friend lied to you and told you those part are what they are. One thing is definately for sure, your Tach is not GReddy. And I highly dought you could afford any Zero Sports wing since all their parts are extremely expensive. Further more, they're reserved for Subaru applications only. And let me clear one more thing up, MRT DOESN'T EVEN HAVE A 6 INCH TIP MUFFLER. Mmmmkay, now that I've made my point I'm just gonna grab my bag of popcorn and watch this drama unfold.

10-25-2001, 07:49 PM

APEXistud you are suck a stupid ignorant fucken DICK!!!

You do not have a clue, a wing is a fucken wing jackass. I had to drill holes in my trunk to get the fucker to mount. I had to also take off and have the holes filled from the stupid fucken stock wing. A wing is a wing it does not care what trunk you mount it to. The diameter of the fucken muffler is about 6 inches the tip is a little smaller than the muffler itself you stupid fuck. I busted you earlier you illiterate fuck and I did it again. You either cannot read or do not know shit. I will say the answer is all of the above. When the weather clears and I can take my digital camera outside in good sunlight I will prove your stupid fucken broke can’t afford shit so I will diss on others ass wrong.

I cannot believe that you all are giving me a hard time.

page, cuz the shit he said
he modded on his car are exactly the thing
they make fun of,
example, the stickers.
He is probably driving a regular
V6 Mustan automatic and actually
he is a loser. He is between the ages 16 and 19, single (who'd want an ass like him?!?) and even not brave enough to register....
in other words: PISS OFF OR POST PICS -
this discussion is useless without any pics!

Look bro, it's clear that you don't know what the hell you're talking about, so now you're lashing out at everyone. And yes a wing is a wing and a muffler is a muffler, but when you start spouting out names like ZERO SPORTS or MRT, which just happen to be 2 highly respected aftermarket companies in the Subaru world. That, my friend is when a muffler is no longer just another muffler and a wing is no longer just another wing. So you're telling me that you there is no difference between all Zero Sport aerokits, (which are wind tunnel tested and proven to give more downforce and add to your top speed), and Wings West aerokits, which are for the most part, made for looks. If that's how you feel, you my friend are a JackAss. Do us all a favor, post the damn pics and make us eat our words. Or don't post pics and let us relieve the stresses of our tough, tiring day on your sorry ass.

Im not aying that this guy is telling the truth and i hope he is but i wanted to correct everyone on the Greddy Tach. http://www.wholehyper.com/greddy-gauges.html
check out that site and you will see the tachs. Chris i hope you are the real deal, if i were you i would just go on and take some pix of your ecar even if it is nasty weather just to prove a pt and when the weather is better you can replace them. So let see you prove us wrong, if its true we will see the pix today, if not i guess you are fake. Just do and it and we will see

10-26-2001, 11:24 AM
APEXistud I am not going to get upset with you like I did yesterday you are obviously wrong. I have proven you wrong many times already and you refuse to give up. All I can think of it that you are jealous that I am doing all these mods. My MP3 does have a Zero Sports wing, it does have the MRT muffler. No the tip of the muffler is smaller than the muffler itself but the diameter of the muffler is 6 inches. Neither the wing nor the muffler are application specific and will fit on just about any car. My tach is a Greddy tach and you are making yourself look like a fool telling people that I don’t.

There is not a dam thing wrong with my mods I am doing this all in good taste and adding my own personal touch to the car. I cannot believe that some of you are being so rude. I bet you would not say those things to my face at a car show. You would walk buy and admire my individually.

And as far as the Rice boy comments go the stock MP3 almost fits the bill without any mods. Read the site and you will see.

What are some of your mods to the car? What are your plans and where are your pics? Just because you have no mods does not give you the right to hate people who do.

I am almost hesitant to post pics the way you people are acting. You would either diss me some more or say that I photo chopped them.

Steven C
10-26-2001, 12:12 PM

APEXistud
10-26-2001, 09:43 PM
Look man, it obvious that you are wrong. I've already proved you wrong with the Tach. Like i said before, GReddy doesn't make Tachometers, so the one you have must be a 1 off, or someone slapped a GReddy sticker on it. I've called GReddy and THEY DO NOT MAKE TACHS. I went to that link that TighMP3 posted and just like I said there are no TACHS, FINAL. And as for Zero Sports and MRT, go to their damn websites or get on the I-Club and ask if they make that are others cars other than Subaru. If you decide to so, I suggest you get your flame suit on.

And I would say this to your face too, bottom line if I don't like someone's car and they were to ask me my personal opinion, I'd let them know. And you not posting pics would only prove all us sceptics right. I'm not trying to be an asshole, but when people come onto boards and make bullshit claims. I won't hesitate to wave the BULLSHIT FLAG. If you can't take a little/a lot of critism, maybe you shouldn't be posting. And bro you are the one who decided to get rude with people first, so I wouldn't be pointing any fingers.

Sheesh all this over a guy who doesn't want to post pics of his mods. When will this end.

<tim>
10-28-2001, 10:29 AM
steven, it's not too "ricey". No type R stickers or anything. And, YES I plan on racing next summer, thanks for asking. I am getting a t-3 turbo off of a probe gt in about a week and it should be fully operational by early spring, I just have to fabricate the exhuast manifold. Also I am getting cams in november when they become available through mazda speed. Right now I just have a custom cold air intake I made. But lot's of mods on the exterior. Also I got the eibach sport kit springs with a 1.75 inch drop as well as an apex'i muffler. Pics up tuesday. And yes these are real. Also steven, how does your car look? It's hard to mod a mazda and it not look somewhat "ricey".
