Im looking for a daily driver to replace my current daily 2002 Mustang GT. Anybody have a clean MSP or MP3 left? If its an MSP is MUST have the welded or upgraded diff, i have no garage right now. Thanks :)

Well this is a fairly worn out auto car. So I doubt it'll ever see any kind of track time. Im actually hoping to pick up another evo in the next few months as a dedicated track car.

Just bought me a 93 protege LX automatic for a daily driver and knew it had some transmission issues. But I only payed $700 for the car in running condition with a clean title. I work at a Ford/Mazda dealer. My tech diagnosed the tranny and said its an ATF Thermosensor. I found an entire working...

I sold my MSP off long ago and moved into the domestics for awhile with an 02 SS Camaro. It didnt really "do it" for me so I sold it off last year and bought a 06 Lancer Evolution SE with a pretty decent list of mods that is slowly getting longer. After putting an unsprung twin disc clutch in...

I know Im coming in almost a month later, but also check your wastegate actuator. Mine did the same thing because I was running the 6.5psi stock actuator at 13 psi, it tore the diaphragm inside of it. It would act fine till you got on it and got it into boost then it felt like the car hit a...

Hey guys, im tyring to help my aunt and uncle find a solid first car for my soon to be 16 year old little cousin. Hes in love with my evo but obviously being a full time student 16 year old, he has no business being in an evo. We've managed to talk him into getting a 5 speed protege and doing...

I was actually comparing it in the FS's favor as all I said was I'd have a hard time doing the same with a much bigger displacement motor. I whole heartedly agree with you, however that still does not make the LS platform a "terrible" engine. That was my only counter. But like I said, im not...

It ended up being record breaking hot over the weekend and some family came into town from Michigan. So looks like the ETA is now this thursday evening unless the heat doesnt break.

I searched but failed in finding a thread on this so if one already exists I do apoligize. That being said..... After trading in the MSP on my Camaro and losing my ass in mods on the MSP, I decided to pick up another hobby so I wouldnt spend so much money on the Camaro. I used to mountain bike...

Sent him a message. Thanks for the response! Edit: Message replied, not what we're looking for. Looking for officially liscenced Mazda stuff.

Over the last week i've gone from this..... To this (had to dig down 10 inches and remove all the construction debris from the dirt): Picking up the 411 base material and paver sand after work today. I already have the concrete pavers, should have a completed porch and flowerbed by the...

I wasn't real sure on where to put this so if it needs to be moved so be it. Just shoot me a PM of where it's moved to. I'm working for Mazda again since they shut down Mercury and we're closing our Lincoln store. I work in parts and I'm working with my manager and Antoine on becoming a...

Its by no means a terrible engine. I could easily hit 100bhp per liter without boost but itd be so radically cammed and an insane amount of headwork that it wouldnt be worth a damn as a street car. As it sits im making ~330 to the wheels at 5.7L and still getting over 20mpg. But I wont clutter...

Thanks, I also picked up an iron block 6.0L short block over the weekend. Im shooting for around 700whp on e85. :)

Just popped back in to check on everyone. Car is looking and sounds like its running good man. My LS1 is on its last leg lol. Which heads did you end up going with? Im going to try and find me a set of 243 heads (factory LS6) and build them with a nice custom cam and a rear mount turbo setup...
