    rsb endlinks from another car?

    I've been struggling with the common issue of our rear sway bar endlinks loosening up. I had a similar problem with my 93 626 (which used the same stupid allen-key design) when I swapped-in a much thicker addco rsb. But someone on the 626 forum had found out that the endlinks from a mid-90's...

    MS3 Road Trip Review

    I just got back from my first big road trip in this car, Calgary to Pender Island BC, to Victoria and back to Calgary. Maybe 2400kms in total. I loved every second of it, the car was simply fantastic on the highway! Normally I'm pretty exhausted and sore at the end of these trips, but I felt 10...

    Back to summer tires! So Happy!!!

    On sunday I finally got to put my stock rims/tires on, oh man how I've missed sharp steering response and cornering grip!

    Bose Info

    I'm trying to round up as much info on the MS3 bose system as possible, it's part of a weird little plan I have to improve it until I have enough coin to buy an amp and front components. So far I've searched and found that the door mids are 6.5" and 2 ohms, the sub is 5 or 5.25" and 1 ohm, the...

    16's fit

    So I got my winter rim/tire package today, cheapo athena 16x6 5 star rims (ooh, silver with polished lip!) and Kumho 205/60/16 KW17 winter tires. All for $1000 CDN installed which isn't too bad. The rims do clear the front calipers, I thought I'd give a quick dry-road review (when it snows I'll...

    Previous Rides?

    I thought it'd be fun to start a thread describing cars we've owned in the past, as well as what we liked/disliked about them. I also threw my ms3 in for no reason. So...
