    Advice on selling MSP

    I'm not going to miss it when it's gone. It's already dead to me, and I'm very much over it. It's a weak motor that was never designed for forced induction, a worthless factory diff that fails exactly when your warranty is up, a clunky suspension(which still clunked for me after "clunk fix"...

    Anyone wrapped or shielded the steedspeed manifold?

    Hey I've got the steedspeed stock replacement exhaust manifold, and I'm trying to get my under-hood temps down a bit. I've been considering trying to build a custom heatshield to cover it up, and keep it from radiating so much heat to everything around it. I've also considered using thermal...

    Turbo exhaust gaskets

    The dot points to one of four corners. You say it's outside, but that could be outside front or outside rear.

    Need help with strut orientation

    Can someone tell me which way the paint dot on the struts is supposed to point for a stock vehicle? My struts were dropped down and I'm pretty sure they were put back in the wrong orientation.

    Help removing transmission

    I've got a broken LSD that needs replacing and I'm trying to remove the transmission myself. I think i'm in a bit over my head. Has someone done this before that can help me? I got a manual for removing this transmission, but I don't think it's MSP specific. At one point it says to "Remove...

    Headphone suggestions.

    I got some AKG K 240 MKII a while ago, and I'm really liking them. These things sound great to me, are incredibly comfortable, and at a pretty reasonable price.

    For all of you with LSD breakage problems...

    Am I going to need new diff bearings as well if my diff broke? Or is that something I won't know until the everything is disassembled?

    For all of you with LSD breakage problems...

    So my stock Mazdaspeed Protege LSD broke the other day. I think I am going to pick up one of these. I'm still unclear exactly which version I need to order.

    Air blowing through vents even with AC off.

    Just set it to recirculate. When it's set for fresh outside air, there is an open passage pointing to the outside, and when your car moves, some air blows in.
