Hey there guys! It's been a while and I definitely miss my MSP. I left a couple of years ago thinking I needed to "grow up" so I bought a BMW 330Ci. The BMW has been fun, I love all that low end torque, but I miss the turbo feel on the highway. I went and test drove the MS3 but the other front...

I bought my MSP new off the lot in August 03 and joined this forum a few weeks after. After more than 5 years and 100k miles its time to say goodbye. You guys have been great, I have learned so much and was helped so many times by your posts and how-tos. I sold her Friday. Just wanted to say...

So I searched around and did not find a post with a definitive answer and details on the install so I am putting this one up. Enjoy! I have replaced the fog lights with the stockers several times and finally got sick of paying $140 each for the junk stock lights. I was in Wal-Mart and saw a...

Sooo, I couldn't sleep again... and I got up and decided to try some photo tricks I heard about with my car in the driveway... I got the digital camera and set it on manual mode and bumped the F-stop to 4.0 and the shutter speed to 16 seconds on my Olympus C-730. I then set the camera on a...

So I go to start my car to go to work this wednesday morning and (click, click, click) won't start. So I get take my truck in. I know this site rocks so I start searching and call the stealer. Turns out that since I have had my car 2 years they would cover less than 50% of the battery...

So my wife gets me this new CD for Valentine's Day. I spend like 30 minutes trying to get it out of the stupid packaging and when I finally get it out I put it in the Kenwood to play it. It sits quietly for a sec and then starts playing, it plays fine for about 15 seconds. Then it stops...

So I traveled to see my family for Thansgiving and on the way home I went over a speed bump and heard a realy loud creaking/banging noise. I was going fairly slow when I went over the bump. Since I was still close to my brothers house I turned around and went back. I thought at first it...

So I upgraded my sub and over the past months I have noticed an incrreasingly annoyying rear deck rattle. I poked around and found that the covers for the child seat anchors were rattling. I fixed that with some foam. But there is another place the rattle is coming from. The cover for, I...

The Kenwood died So I have had my car for a year now and the kenwood just did the toungue out death thing. I see that others have had this problem on teh boards and tried the foam idea and reset idea and bending the spring idea. Nothing helped. So I called the dealer and dropped by this...

I searched but did not find anything. I am getting a clicking noise from the front passenger seat at highway speeds. I reclined it one notch and it went away for a bit but now its back. I am sure its the seat mechanism or something in the seat clicking. Has anyone had this happen? Has...

Well I decided to take the MSP out to a few autocorss events to see how it does. I gotta tell ya it ROCKS! In stock form they are AWESOME... Since I am new to the whole autox thing I am in the novice class. Even so, I am smoking guys in the open classes. Here is a brief list of the cars I...

I was thinking of of sleep-i-fying mine by finding a wrecked ES and getting the wing off it. Will it bolt on in the same loc? Will there be holes I need to fill? What do you guys think?

Anybody get speed dependent creaking when going around left turns? I notice it in the Parking Garage at work. When I make 90 deg left turns I notice the Right Front wheel goes Creeeaaak ---- Creeeaaak ----- Creeeaaak -----. The faster I go arouns the turn the faster the creaks come. I...

I know its been gone over a thousand times but I'm excited so I'm writing this post. :P I just got a kartboy shifter bushing. The install instructions on their website were great. The entire job (including locating a 14mm wrench and some locktite) took less than 15 minutes. I was able to...

I noticed for the second time today that when I have two people in the back seat and I accelerate moderately from a stop I get a crunching / grinding noise from the back of the vehicle. This is especially bad if I am coming out of a parking lot and going over that bump onto a major road. There...

Can someone explain to me what their MSP sounds like when the ABS is engaged? Mine is a crunching/grinding noise/pedal feeling. Other vehicles I have had were more of a studder i.e. more of a duh-duh-duh-duh sound/feeling in the pedal than a krrrsckkkkkgt. Is this normal? I did a few...

Well I just got back from vaction so I did not get a chance to post earlier... I have a bone stock MSP and I heard it make the turkey noise for the first time at 4k miles and on thankgiving. Now its doing it almost every time I shift. Gobble gobble gobble...

I live in Bastrop texas, a pretty small town. Every Saturday night a bunch of guys get together and lineup in the old HEB parking lot here. There are usually everything from '32 duece to supercharged 2003 Mustangs. And Generally a few tuners. SO I show up with my brand new MSP with the paper...

Newbie here. I know there have already been threads on this and I have read them. But none of the threads contain definitive action items to get this problems resolved. I just bought a Mica MSP 2 weeks ago. It has spent the last 2 days in the shop and the service manager says the techs cant...
