Hello all.
This is not a new car to me, nor is it anything unusual that I have already but a good bit of time into the car already as it is. I have just been primarily on another forum for the longest time and hopped over here to broaden up the horizons a little bit.
My car is a 2006 Mazda3 "i" trim model with the 2.0L engine. The car's color code is 24E, Shimmering Sand Metallic, which seems to be extremely rare. I have only seen a handful others in these last few years and none of which have been modified. My car is a back-to-basics trim which means I have flip locks, crank windows, and a manual transmission... Just my kind of car!
My Current Modification List:
Drivetrain:
- Advanced Timing Mod
- Mazdaspeed3 OEM Exhaust (from a 2008 MS3)
- AEM Cold Air Intake (Red) with AEM Dryflow Filter Wrap
- Mazdaspeed3 Rear Motor Mount (from a 2009 MS3)
- Corksport Rear Motor Mount Inserts
- Mazdaspeed Accessory Short Shifter
- Mazdaspeed Accessory Aluminum Shifter Bushings
- Flex Innovations Engine Grounding Kit (Red)
Interior:
- Custom Dead Pedal
- Unlocked Fuel Computer
- Mazdaspeed3 OEM Leather Seats (from a 2007 MS3)
- OEM Leather Shift Knob (from a 2008.5 MZ3)
Audio:
- PAC AOEM-MAZ2 Line-Out Converter
- Memphis Power Reference Series 500.1 Mono Amplifier
- Grom iPod Integration Kit
- Kicker Comp 10" Subwoofer
Exterior Styling:
- Mazda Accessory Mud Flaps
- Stubby Antenna
- Painted Calipers (Red)
- Removed Side Moldings
- DDM Angel Eyes
- Removed Orange Reflectors from Headlights
- Window Tint (50%)
- Mazdaspeed6 OEM Wheels (from a 2007 MS6)
- Volt HID 5000k headlight conversion
Suspension/Brakes:
- Mazdaspeed3 Front Brake Conversion (From a 2009 MS3)
- D2 Racing Lowering Springs
...And last but not least.... PICTURES!
Also my baseline dyno sheet from before I started all of this. I still need to get the car up on a dyno and see where it sits now.
