man you really making it come together, congrats man!! i think i pay mine off completely in February if my calculations are correct. Then comes to the time do i trade it in, or keep it? IF i trade it, i'll be trading for a CX-7, in which my fiance will be driving and i'll take her 09 Lancer...

I talked to X-over and he quoted me 7K for half-a55ing it...and 10K if it's all done right. that's was when i hate to replace my engine, so i asked around and that was about the going price i was being told. ....man....congrats on saving all this money for this build. I don't have a degree...

I'd love to see a MS2, but from a standpoint of performance, to me my MSP is somewhat of a joke. I mean if i want true power I need 8 cylinders. Not to say it wouldn't be fun to drive and handle amazingly. That's what i do like about my MSP, but that's about it. I say go for it mazda...

hey, congrats on finding the car you wanted. :D hope all the mods go well, and maybe I'll see you out sometime. I wanna meet up with everyone sometime, but I work a lot and between the house, wife, kid and work. Well, I don't think my MSP will ever see another mod lol. But good luck with...

so, from reading this ancient thread, risen from the dead....a unichip, tuned can't cut the governor? always wondered that.

front motor mount replace, removed dash and had to find a short myself that was causing my interior lights and tail lights to blow fuses. both front axles replaced.... ...oh and a new engine and clutch when that got installed, and then driving it home after not having the car for almost a year...

when i look up the KBB value, it says that there wasn't enough sold to give an accurate estimate on the vehicle's value....where are you all getting this?..........cause i'm ready to sell if i can get what i owe lol

i don't hear mine at all after shutdown.

sounds like motor mount, mine did this and i got the front on replaced and boom, fixed. at least your symptoms sound very similar.

i forgot the guys name. but it's been a good car until it starting making a rattling noise...i should have gotten it looked at. I drove it around for about 10 months like that. my own fault i suppose. the car is being repaired just waiting for the head to be rebuilt and machined. I should...

Well, first off I'd like to say hello to my fellows MSP drivers. It's been quite a while since i've been on the forums. My engine blew back in March 09 and I basically sat on the repairs for a while, but finally paid off an engine and had it installed. I finally was able to pay off the...

30 seconds.....that seems a bit much

<--this guy's 2 cents..... If i would have known what i know now...no offense...but i would NOT own another MSP. I love the way this car handles, how nimble it is on the street....blast to drive...but knowing now that their internals are basically the same as that of a riding lawnmower...and...

i'm buying my engine from asapmotors out of houston (where i live) they have a layaway option...i just choose that considering i have another car for the time being. Anyway, just my two cents.

that's cool...just called them and they said not a problem, they'll pull another and test it. He said that one was a little older looking and pretty dirty....he also said I can come in and take a look myself and check them out in person....and I will be doing that for sure..lol At least they...

I guess I can ask them to pull another and test that one also.

Here is the actual email i got. what do you all think this says?

I got a leak down test on the engine i'm buying.... are these good compression or w/e numbers? But i can't tell if there is a "%" after the number or if it's a one... 12% 15% 10% 12% or it could be 121 151 101 121 Are these numbers okay?

31....i need a youngster to buy this car from me lol

yeah, it's wavy....and one side of it is all beat up. Probably due to the fact that i drove the car for about 9-10 months with it knocking....but I was told by several mechanics it was a valve making the noise. it only made noise when i was at a cruising / steady RPM...if I let off the gas...
