Not to sound like a smart-a, but what do you mean by cold pipe? Thx...

I'm in DFW until I'm in Austin the 26/27... Hit me up if you still have it around then and we'll work out a deal to come meet you. Thanks!

As the title says, looking for a 3.25" aftermarket (SU or ETS) TMIC for my MS3. Please PM me before posting one FS, changing my plugs soon and would like to swap both at the same time...thanks!

s****, I keep missing the ETS FS threads. May have to buy new afterall...

PM sent...make sure you get your pic updated so they don't lock your thread!!!

Funny stuff, we gots the same tires and I'm still looking at making almost the same exact mods as yours. Anyhow, I've had the V12's now for almost 25k miles. I drive easy most of the time, but they have gotten as loud if not louder than the original Potenza's. I balance/rotate regularly, and...

Good news! I installed the Curt PN #56011 trailer wiring harness adapter on my '07 MS3 GT, and it works great! Sorry I did not get any pictures (one of the few things I'm good at is sweating, and it was over 100 down in Austin yesterday)... but no need; this is truly a plug/play option, i.e...

Sorry, still haven't done the install yet. My roomie/"landlord" is an ass scratch away from having his garage air conditioned, so I'm waiting to do the work in there. These 105 degree days here suuuck. Edit: Went ahead and put on the Curt hitch tonight. What a b**** with the wrong tools...

Dang, hope not. Curt's website only gives 1 part #, but then again does not specifically list the MS3. The non-speed 3 has a model with LED's, doesn't it? I should know in a couple days... Thx. And yes I'll try and remember to get lots of pictures!

Ok, went ahead and bought PN's 56011 and 11384 via Ebay, total $174.10 shipped. The Curt catalogue shows the jack access panels as installed location for the wiring box, thus it would appear this installation only involves wiring in hte hatch area. I'll know for sure in a week or two.

MS3 GT yes... Does the GT package make a diff? Also something to consider, I'm pretty sure my radiator has a tranny/oil cooler... Besides the added stopping distance and general concern of strength where the hitch connects to the rear bumper, I think the MS3 would make a perfectly suitable...

Great thread and info, everybody. Thanks. Anybody use the "Plug/play" wiring option Curt now has for the Mazda 3? Connector part number is 56011, install time listed as 20mins with no splicing... I plan on going this route. Looking to pull a small race car frame on a 10x6 trailer with the...

+1... Amazing how many people post on here just to have their e-cocks waving around. Probably why I don't visit very often.

Definitely interested in these if they looked more like a "stock" accessory, and not like something I'd see driving behind a big rig. Honestly love the function, but not the form. These things could/should be waaaay smaller, IMHO!
