    It's coming: Lancer Sportback vs. MS3?

    IMHO - AWD makes a better car for daily driving. The car is more planted due to both weight and the fact that all four corners are working for you instead of being pushed/pulled as in a 2WD setup. "Frumarol"(2wd) racing is a great way to get a ticket, though it can be useful for a needed quick...

    Small Wideband O2 gauge and LC-1 sensor $259

    Cool - thanks. I was looking at this: http://www.mazdas247.com/forum/showthread.php?t=123667619 But the smaller gauge would work better as I can surface mount it just about anywhere(between headliner and windshield is tempting, but I'll keep it near the other gauges), and the price is right.

I can surface mount the small gauge easily, and there's a guy on clubwrx using it with...

    Modded WRX owner considering a MS3

    +1 to everything above I went with the vf34 because I wanted usable power in daily driving. I have friends with 18g and 20g, and while they will run on me up high, they wait a few hundred RPM longer for boost. I've got boost building around 2k, but very light - real boost comes up around...

    Got any mods on your STI yet? I hope you're at least at stage 2.

    wrx sti...trade worth it ?

    I disagree here, I know plenty of adults with STI's. If anything I've seen more young people driving MS3's. Likely this is because of the price factor influencing accessibility. Agreed - with a few smart mods, you should be able to close the gap on an STI. However, that's not the whole...

    How much boost???????

    I run 18psi daily on the stock internals, no issues with proper engine management. But the EJ205 is designed for boost. The FS-DE, not so much.

    No rattles in my Subie, and I've never had one either. My protege had a rattle by the rear deck, never could shut it up.

    Modded WRX owner considering a MS3

    Just dyno'd this past weekend. 275awhp/245awtq. A 2007 STI Cobb Stage 1 went on the dyno after me and put down 245hp/255tq. Cobb rates that map at 325hp/340tq flywheel. Cobb rates my cars map (vf34 map) at 320hp/295tq. As you would imagine, I'm very happy with my results and feel like I did a...

    Broke 2nd gear in the WRX

    I had Spiider's Auto DCCD controller installed 2 weeks ago. It works good. I tried playing in my jobs iced parking lot the other night and forgot the DCCD dial was set at about 75%(aggressive) - Instead of kicking the tail out, it gripped and went with a slight amount of understeer. If anyone...

    Modded WRX owner considering a MS3

    Just to add Fuel to the fire, I ran into a red MS3 on the parkway yesterday. Walked him from a roll at 70 and 80 - with my 2.0 WRX. I'm assuming he was stock.
