Rally lights ???
- Thread starter LV Tunerz
- Start date
dude this isn't rally car. it says in the manual not to take off road, you would be well advised not to. just because it is awd doesn't mean it can do what sti's do. not to mention that sounds like it will look ugly. i mean props to you but that isn't my thing and i'm sure others agree.
I attended my first rally up in Houghton, MI last fall to watch the likes of Travis Pastrana, Ken Block, and Kenny Bartram. Awesome stuff! Those guys can really drive. Most of the cars were running removeable pods with lights like this...

at least if you keep the stock springs, the car's already rally lifted (rlaugh)
lol, anyway, the awd system is, but isn't, too good when you look at it for rallying. i believe there is a very very large thread all about our awd system you should probably check out. other than that, i'd say do it because this car has lots of mid range torque to twist it and manipulate it around corners. but as others said, owners manual says not to take it off road, period. but it probably also says not to race it lol. as for rally lights, don't do it. you'll need some thick beefy dirt racing tires too. do you have a rally course near you to even practice on?

but "LV_Tunerz" in their defense the code requirement for a vehicle to be classified as a :Rally car" must have no bigger than a 2.0L tank, we have 2.3L sooo......QUOTE]
Almost correct. For Production and Group 2 classes, that's true. However, the MS6 would qualify for the Open class. Rally America doesn't let you start out in Open class, though. You have to prove yourself with a 2WD, non-turbo car, first.
The ultimate Mazda rally car would be a MS3 with the MS6 AWD. Here's a kickass little MS3 rally car that competes very well.

oh touche , i like what im hearing , please link me to the open class please
Not to bust every body's bubble..... but since when did any of you listen to what the ******* manual says? Pretty sure the manual says to let the dealer service your car and change the oil, and I'm sure many of you are like I am and do it yourself.
I guarantee it says the same crap for the STI and the EVO manuals "not meant for off road use" and I distinctly remember reading it in my F150's manual as well... and i had it in the 4x4 "off road" package... lol
Those rally cars aren't "factory off the floor" cars, they have all the mods (mostly suspension) needed for rally racing, the stock suspension is NOT going to handle a 50 (or more) foot jump through the air... I would be surprised if it even took a 20 foot jump without any damage to it.
That's not to say it can't be done with our car if LV here does all the right modifications to it. I for one would actually like to see someone do it, if they have the money for it, that would be freaking sweet and maybe even get us even more attention in the mod market
