[Alejo_NIN]

Bump....havent posted in a while I gotta post up pics of the S2K here and share. Hope everyone is doing good.

hey bud!

Show off some pics of the work I did, I'd love to see how the bumper and CR front spolier are holding up. Hey, have you found a hardtop worth buying?? I've got to call you and catch up, you need to hear about the new parts
I've collected. Hint hint...the old worn out struts, springs, and swaybars are going to be taken out and my stock seats are going bye bye

 

[avarela86]

Alejo!!! Bringing her back to life!!! Those are some woryhy parts for a built motor. Needs an aluminum radiator! You better have used an oven you don't use to cook with to bake that paint!! I'm glad shes in your very capable hands. Treat her well.

Sander, buddy I called you like last month and left a voicemail. I gotta take some nice pics of the car to post here. As for hard tops....actually waiting on a rear cf diffuser a hard top and cf side diffusers I ordered two weeks ago.

Shane glad to see you're still hanging in there with the P5. You always have had a beast build man. Keep it up! Going to get on my PC in a little and post pics of the S.

Last year cruise to the Keys with the S2Ki guys. The side shot was PSed to look lower before I got my BC Coils but pretty much looks just like that now just dont have worthy SLR pics to post.

Engine Bay shot pending......... Just imagine lots of Rare Spoon, ARC and Opak Racing parts. Some Titanium, Carbon Kevlar and Carbon Fiber sex.

doing the best i can with what i have.
it is a slow process.
awaiting paying off speed03.5's Tial 38mm wastegate.

slowly man. gotta hit some auto-x this upcoming season, so let me know!

Dude thats sweet, the hardtop is OEM right? CF diffusers , nice man I'll bet they'll look killer.

You need to let me paint your hood to match the bumper/lip and I think I still have some of your paint left over too. Oh btw, let me know the next time you make it up to orlando. I've been busting my ass working on the 993, the stock struts/springs were a b**** to take out but luckily I was able to install my new RS swaybars and links along with the PSS10's Looks great lowered now, the stock ride height was stupid high but no more.

I'm getting her corner balanced by Mike at PRS this week.

 

[avarela86]

Awesome Sander! The hardtop is a Mugen Style hard top. I can't justify the cost of the OEM one and got a sick deal buying in "bulk" from a vendor. I really need my fenders fixed but thats on hold till I can have the wheels widened. Sometime next month or so looking to order wider lips and replace the current ones.

I can only imagine how sexy the Porsche looks! Need to text me pictures!! I bet it handles ten times better.

Alejo, I knew you would treat her right! Keep at it. The car looks amazing! Looking forward to seeing you at an Autox again soon! LMK when you go again so we can link up and run! Bet the MP3 would wreck the S on the straights!

Anything new with the Honda?

 

[Alejo_NIN]

you guys are all a bunch of sellouts...honduhs...after years and years of pointing and laughing, now all of you own one...the ******* irony.

 

[JCell]

I still point and laugh, i just do it in front of a mirror


Let me know when you wanna do a run, show you the powa of beetek!

 

[avarela86]

My old Protege would have a good run against the Accord.

 

[Alejo_NIN]

now is the powa of vtec?
lol


a few years ago you guys would be ashamed of even speaking of a honda

 

[JCell]

I would have liked to stay with Mazda. The way they have treated me has been amazing, they really know what drivers want and are willing to provide. But none of their new cars really appeal to me anymore. I kinda like the ms3, just dont think its a realiable car. I got a great deal on the Accord and its really growing on me. Not as sporty as the ms3, but a touch more class.

Down the line I would like a 91 rx7 as a project, and I really like the new cx5. just wish it came with a more powerful motor.

 

[Alejo_NIN]

i'm sorry...what is not reliable about the MS3?

and pelase don't tell me about blown turbos and such on a hevily modded MS3...i'm tlaking about a stock ms3.
cuz i have one and not one issue in 1 year of ownership...and i bought used.

 

[Alejo_NIN]

this is our toy car now

Congrats on having a solid car. But wasn't there a recall for leaking seals on the car? And issues with the head due to the lack of lubrication from the direct injection. This is just my opinion from info I've gathered from the forum and friends in the Mazda dealer I used to go to.

 

[evilmonkeyMSP]

Not concerned about any reliability issues with my '13 MS3. All of the quirks have been worked out.

 

[avarela86]

Revive!! Came back here to reminisce on this old car. I actually was contacted about 5 months ago by the most recent owner. It has been through two owner since I sold it to AlejoNiN. The new owner sent me picture of the engine back and wow does it look awesome! Have to get in touch and hopefully see the car in person. Would be great to have some pictures together with the S and the MP3 along with the new daily.
