I tried to keep this as short as I could w/out removing the necessary details, and I would like honest views of this. My wife and I have been married for 8 years and have 3 children under 5 together. She has said throughout our marriage that she feels "disconnected" from me, but never gave me...

The Guys' Rules******************* At last a guy has taken the time to write this all down Finally, the guys' side of the story. (I must admit, it's pretty good.) We always hear " the rules" From the female side. Now here are the rules from the male side. These are our rules! Please note...

when I installed my Hiboost kit w/pipes, I didn't think too much about the fact that it required the detachment of the right side (as you are looking at the car) of the radiator from a fixed point. Now, after a couple years installed, it's starting to rub against the Injen pipe off the turbo and...

At about 50K miles my car was running pretty rough, and then threw a CEL. I know many people think to check the EGR for this, but it may not hurt to check your o2 sensors too (especially since these cars run so rich from the factory). I checked the code and the secondary o2 sensor was my...

First, let me say I'm not a hardcore democrat, republican, green party, environmentalist, or whatever, so this is not meant to be a political thread. This is more for people who want to share their thoughts on the movie and how it effected them. Keep it positive people. This was the movie Al...

After watching "An inconvenient truth" lastnight, I decided to sacrifice some power for the sake of reducing my emitions on the car and put a catalytic converter back on. I don't remember where the second o2 sensor goes; Can anyone tell me if that went in the 1st cat, the 2nd cat, or inbetween...

My check engine light has come on 2 separate times now, and idles a bit rough at start up after driving til warm, shutting off for a few minutes, and then coming back to start it and drive again. Where is the connection for checking for the CEL code? I was told it's under the dash, but I don't...

It appears that they are superceding the genunine MSP LSD with open diffs without telling some people: http://www.msprotege.com/forum/showpost.php?p=2809296&postcount=35 http://www.msprotege.com/forum/showpost.php?p=2809326&postcount=39

Who is the vendor on here that sells the OEM MSP diff's pre-welded? I can't find them and I know they are a vendor many on here have used. Car is being towed to the shop tonight so I will need to find this out asap to get it ordered. Thanks

this is fuggin' hilarious. Chad Vader (Darth Vader's younger brother) This is great. Enjoy (4 episodes--4th one sucks, but first 3 are great): http://splu.net/chadvader.htm

Anyone have a pic of our LSD pulled out on it's own without the additional welds? I'm looking for a "before" pic to go along with turfburn's "after" pics for the shop who is doing the tig welding for me.

I'm thinking that as long as I'm having this preventative work done, that I may as well put a little bit heavier-duty clutch in. Anyone done this, and if so when clutch did you put in with what results? I don't need to spend $400 on a racing clutch b/c I don't beat the crap out of car (i.e. I...

Our twin boys finally came home from their 6 week stint in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (they came 10 weeks early). Needless to say, it's good to know an MSP can fit 3 child/infant car seats accross the back bench. MSP ftw!

you pulled up next to me on verona road near Home Depot. Injen sticker on the rear drivers' side window and Kenwood sticker on the back window. Any takers?

post here if you got damage from the hail storm that blew through the madison area this past week. I made my ins claim today. Many dents on the trunk and roof, but the CF hood held up without getting dented.

I normally post on here about car stuff, but this one is about my personal life because my wife and I need some good thoughts sent our way. Her and I are expecting twins, and up til today things were going fine (she's 21 weeks along--40 wks is full term). However, my wife was meassuring too...

does anyone know what the diameter is of the MAF compared to the cold pipe on a Hiboost kit? I need 2 reducing couplers asap along with pipe clamps and I couldn't find it by searching. +rep for any solid help.

Can I/dealer/authorities deactivate the passenger side air bag? Long story, but it will need to happen as I will have 3 kids come summer; all of whom require car seats. I do not want to sell the MSP, & we can't have a children under 12 in the passenger seat in Wisconsin if there is an airbag...

I'm taking a trip to my local Mazda dealer to get the anti-sway bar bushings replaced (hopefully). When they jack my car up, and see that I have no cats, are they going to call the police or something? I'm pretty sure all states require having them (shhh, don't tell) and I don't think WI is any...

I got my hands on one of these things called "butt kickers" and I think it could very well be one of the coolest inventions on the planet. I'm a drummer and the company I work for sells them, so I've had the chance to use it on a drum throne. *HOWEVER* they make them for gamers too. It's a...
