I have an 03 MSP, still running the stock front bar, am not very low, and am about to replace my strut bearings for the third time this summer. I talked to the guys at Ground Control, and they suggest the strut bearings are being destroyed due to too much load on them. They thought maybe I'm too...

Taking the MSP to Montreal this weekend for the Canadian Autoslalom Championship. I'm hoping the forecast changes, since they are calling for rain still, and I don't have any good rain tires. I'm only equipped for dry. I'm competing in DSS. My last look at the entry list showed 4 MSP's...

Looking for two (2) ERS springs, 2.5ID, x 8" x 350# Let me know if you got some or know someone who does!

Trying to get some feedback from people who "know". Why use stainless steel for an intake instead of aluminum? Wouldn't aluminum be better because it's lighter? Do people use steel because it's easy to get and easy to work with?

I'm looking for coilovers for the spring, I use the car for AutoX and am pretty competitive, so I want a good setup. I figure I should be able to get either the JIC's or Tein's for around the same price ($1300US). I know some folks who race in the same series I do with Tein's on other kinds of...

My car currently has the prototype turbo-back that Vibrant is going to be selling. I'm evaluating it for fit, noise, etc before they produce it. I did make a dynorun, and yes, there are some BIG gains. I wont post my graph yet, because this is a prototype and will have some minor changes before...

2004 Mazdaspeed Proteg I have a contact who is associated with the plant that manufactures the Racing Beat exhaust used on the MSP. The plant was advised to gear up for another few thousand units. Don't ask me for any more information, because that's all I can say.

Do they say "Mazdaspeed" instead of "Proteg"?? I had an incident with my floor mats, and rather than replace them with the OEM Canadian ones that say "Proteg" I'd like to get the US ones if they say "Mazdaspeed".

Anyone from this board thinking about attending the CAEC (Canadian Autoslalom Eastern Championship) in PEI? www.slalomatslemon.ca

Question for you who autoX your MSP's in stock classes: Have you changed your struts? If yes, what are you using now? I am thinking about changing mine, as it's also a free mod in Canada.

I'm hoping those american's running solo II's can help out a fellow canadian! Our rules will be changing for 2004. I'm not entirely sure what will be happening yet, but the rumours are something in line with the SCCA rules. How do those rules effect modifications to mazdaspeeds such as...

I'm asking this question to people that DO NOT participate in a "legal" form of racing (solo1/2, autoX, lapping days, whatever). Why don't you? Are you concerned about the costs? Concerned about breaking something? Don't know how to find information? Please, tell me why you don't go.

Pics from the TOProteg meet May 3rd Finally, after great delay, here is the link to the pictures taken yesterday. I took 146, but only posted 106 I think. I'm not too impressed with the quality of some... Of course, high-res versions are available upon request! email me at mrdouglogan@yahoo.ca...

What does your typical day consist of?

OK, who is running an R compound tire on their protege (5, MP3, MSP, whatever). What kind of tire is it? How is it working for you?

Are there any Canadian owners of MP3 or MSP that might be interested in selling their 17" wheels for a REASONABLE fee? I would like to discuss if you are considering it. They would become AutoX wheels if I do buy them, so tires aren't necessary.

I hope my thread name isn't too misleading. I'm looking for thoughts/ideas/opinions on how to get steady boost from my MSP. It peaks around 9psi at 4000rpm, and then slowly declines to around 6.5 or 7 at redline. This is with a Joe P MBC. (It had the same pattern, just lower numbers without...

Hi folks, Pictures from todays motorsport activity can be viewed at: http://ca.photos.yahoo.com/mrdouglogan click "cobweb solo" to see them all.

New post to show off my new avatar pic, taken at today's Solo2 (AutoX up here in Canada for those of you south of the border).

Alright, I've read the thread by LinuxRacr where he says to use the pink wire with the blue stripe (#60 on the ECU) for installing this gauge inside the car. I pulled my MSP apart, found thiswire, and I wanted to verify that it is the correct one. There is already another wire spliced into this...
