    Jeff@Tri-Point Koni DA Custom Coilover Log

    Here's some help with settings Jeff- Your car looks REALLY low. You may be out of your optimal suspension travel range. I ran my MSP and was very close to or beat most guys in Evos/STi's in STU. I only dropped my car about 1" up front from stock and maybe 3/4" rear. Disconnecting the...

    whats the largest wheel and tire MS3 can use for Auto-X

    Sammy- You don't want 18" wheels. You want 16x8 with a 48mm offset. You can get a set of Rota's for about $700.00. Get some 245/45R16 or 225/50R16 Falkens and you are good to go. Dave Mac

    I ran the 3mm on the rears and 5mm up front. After I adjusted the rear camber I did not use the 3mm in the rears. It is better than you guys think. Dave Mac

    G-bye Mazdaspeed friends

    Our time was short and the car was blazing fast ( I ate a few STi's and Evo's at autocrosses and embarassed some Porsches). I'm onto my Evo 9 now. If you all have any suspension, tire or wheel questions please email me, I can help. My MSP was quick and I don't mind sharing info. Later...

    That's what I ran in the back initially with a 48 offset(3mm spacer) but later removed the spacer. I ran a 5mm space up front with the 16x8 +48mm offset Rotas and had no issues. VERY slight rubbing on the inner fenderwell in full lock turning. Dave Mac

    -3.0 degrees should NOT be an issue for you on 16x8 wheels. It worked on my car VERY well. Dave Mac BTW my 16x8 rota slipstreams are for sale. Along with all of my other mods. I'm buying an Evo. PM if interested.

    STX Build Thread

    Interesting. I'm letting my friend drive my MSP in STX this year in the WDC region (VERY competitive region). He came in 2nd place to Greg Olsen last week in STX against some quick WRX's and Coopers with the JCW packages. The MSP is a VERY under-rated car and could do some great damage at...

    Mike- I'll be at a Philly event or two this year as well as the next A.I. event in June. I'll bring the MSP to play with after I run the STi in STU. If I'm san my co-driver in the MSP I'll let you drive it if you like. Dave

    First A/X in the MSP=Winnar in STX

    awsmp5- Yeah I remember you. Hope to see you out there man! I usually drive the STi in STU but I had a close event so I took the MSP to try it out. Impressive little car when the f'r runs right. I wish Mazda had put more time into engine management 101. Thanks proman. Dave Mac

    First A/X in the MSP=Winnar in STX

    I ran against a couple well prepped WRX's and took them by .5 on a 37 sec course. (omg) This little car amazes me sometimes. Ran my 245/45 16 FK451's on my Rota 16x8 wheels. Having no lag is really nice. I ran a "fun-run" afterwards and chopped another second off and would have had 1st in...

    talk to me about coilovers - HAVING TROUBLE WITH INSTALLING K-SPORTS

    The K-Sports are fully threaded and adjust height by moving the lower assembly up and down and then locking them. The install is relatively easy too. Find a better shop to work with, those first guys are full of isht. DaveMac

    Rikon Raptors

    Rikon Raptors? Who makes them? I think I can safely say go for the Falkens; at least you'll be on tires that have some credibility. I'm leary of "no-name" tires. Dave Mac
