    Realistically, what would you replace your MS3 with?

    Wrangler Unlimited either when Fiat puts a diesel in it or the new Pentastar engine is dropped in. Until then, I'm really happy drivin the Speed.

    Both key fobs stopped working!

    That sounds like a problem with the keyless entry module. If replacing both batteries and both fobs doesn't fix it, then the module's the next logical step. And to Knox...as an unbiased 3rd party...1 of the 79,866 registered users of this site having double dead fob batteries is only 0.00125%...

    Cigarette lighters rewires

    Don't forget to put an inline fuse on the positive wire close to the battery. You wouldn't want to get a short somewhere and burn up your car. A small amplifier install kit would actually have what you need as far as wiring goes. You would still need to hook up an on/off switch on the power wire.

    Powder coating vs. conventional spraying...

    WHEN the powdercoating chips (either during tire installation or just normal road wear) you won't be able to get them touched up. If you just take your time and spray them right it will look and wear fine and when you get chips you can touch them up in 5 minutes. And this is coming from my...

    GI For titanium shifter parts

    Hate to say it, but you probably won't get that much interest b/c the shift plate can be made for cheap out of steel bar available at any lowes or home depot. Someone has already made one for himself and is posting the plans so anyone can do it for themselves if they want to. Granted, steel...

    are unilugs good wheels for a Mazda?

    I think the two of you are referring to two different type of wheels. Real unilug wheels (that I think Bill is talking about) have 5 oval shaped holes in them and most people hate them. Breezy, if you are referring to rims that have the universal holes in them, (i.e. 10 holes-5 that are 5x100...

    Man.This car is bad. :)

    If the OP is under 18, he could have had his driver's license revoked for a non-moving violation if it was severe enough. A girl i know couldn't get her license until she was 17 instead of 16 b/c she stole a car when she was 15. She didn't get caught with the car, but she was ratted out by her...

    WARNING:::Don't buy a Lotus

    He just came out to his car one morning and his rim looked like that. Just overnight the rim spontaneously split open. (rofl2)

    WARNING:::Don't buy a Lotus

    I guess some of you just missed the point of this thread entirely. I'm sick of people using this picture to bash others for buying Rotas when there's no explanation of how it happened.

    18x8.5 Rota Torque (5x114.3/e45/73) ?

    1. The car is dumped so low that's it's effectively undrivable 2. The tires are so stretched that he's driving on the sidewall 3. The rear rims are MUCH wider than the fronts as if the owner is trying to fool everyone into thinking his car is RWD

    WARNING:::Don't buy a Lotus

    I thought it was extremely obvious I was being sarcastic. I'm just sick of seeing that pic of the Rota Slip that looks JUST like this rim anytime someone says they want to buy Rotas. So I thought I'd make my point by doing the exact same thing the Rota fear-mongers do.

    WARNING:::Don't buy a Lotus

    Since there was no explanation for this picture when I found it on the internetz, I'm just going to assume that this happened during normal daily driving. So if any of you have a Lotus as a toy (or even worse, daily driver), you should get rid of it immediately. DON'T LET THIS HAPPEN TO YOU OR...

    Quick way to lower your MS3!!!!

    You're lucky it was just tires. Plus, I don't know why people are even suggesting homeowner's insurance. Let's see, $1000 deductible on homeowner's, or $50-100 deductible on comprehensive insurance. Which would YOU rather pay?

    Ticket for front license plate??

    That sucks about your front plate ticket. But as some others have pointed out, gotta pay to play. On the other hand, you could always try to find a way to register in Nevada. Even though Nevada "requires" a front plate, if the dealership didn't provide you with a plate mount, you aren't required...

    awd?

    I haven't heard of anyone else doing an AWD conversion, but as of June/July DG Motorsports DID NOT have an AWD MS3. Someone had taken some pics of the underneath of that exact MS3 and there was no rear diff/axles/drive shaft, etc. I emailed them about it and they emailed me some pics of the...

    The ultimate exhaust sound

    You could also try hooking up a Peter Frampton guitar voice thingy to your exhaust system and talk through your muffler. That would be b!tchin. You could be all like :::rumbly exhaust voice::: "Hey baby, wanna go for a ride?" And she'd be all like, "Holy $hit! That car just talked to me. I gotta...
