Failed Data log cause wanted to see test car out but i guess the 4th gear log ends at 6334. Did this after i installed my rear motor mount cause i got bored lol. The vibes are there but so less than i thought like Dmurray06 said.

[TriO]

Trading cars

[soaptray]

Yoohhhhh!!! What's up Calgary!

Kevin, your speed is pretty badass - can't wait to get that TBE on mine! Thanks for the ride.

Matt, any shit from the wifey? LOL

[ktms3]

Matt and I are installing my rear sway bar and we are going to do his test pipe later

[ktms3]

soaptray did you guys solve Alex's problem?

[soaptray]

Yeah, just looped some 3/4 heater hose around until his cobb gets in. Everything else bolted on nice and went back together. Sounds great and a definite noticeable increase in power... now if only he can take it easy till our AP internals get in.

Thanks. That's just the winter outfit hehehe. White wheels and roof rack anyway.

Pics were taken at Ghost Lake by Cochrane at the Ice Driving School! What a blast

Your car looks pretty sweet!!! Lowered, nice RX-8 rims too, right?

Did we kind of race that one time on Blackfoot? I think that was you!

Originally Posted by soaptray Heeeyyyy!!! Welcome! Let's get that little car of yours modded up!

Thanks for the welcome Should pop by here more often! And no worries, she'll get modded one day when I can afford it, lol... I think suspension is next! Would like tighter cornering, bit lower maybe, stiffer... swaybars maybe. So much to do!

Just recently installed the JBR rear sway bar helps a lot. I'll be adding coils to my mod list next week or so!

[suz850]

I will have to look into this JBR rear swaybar ktms3!

Noticed it has 3 different settings even, stiff, stiffer, stiffest... lol... interesting.

Which setting is yours set to?

[suz850]

So are you working at CORE customs? What's the scoop here?

Have always wanted some sweet fogs for my Speed. What can you hook me up with?

[soaptray]

Yeah, a friend (another Speed 3 guy) and myself own it. Can definitely get you some nice HIDs and install em for yah.

We are just waiting on a new shipment of 500 ballasts to come in. Ran out of our last one! Should have stock in by this time next week.

I have it set on medium setting its awesome. Helps cornering a little now I'm waiting for JBR to come out with a front sway bar. Is your car bone stock?

[soaptray]

Thanks to secondchance ktms3 MS3_OCD for a fun night of installs at NATOR Calgary!

Was able to get 2 sets of AP HPFP Internals done, as well as half of a set of Coilovers (the rears look sick!).

A few FMIC's this week should round everything off! Cheers guys!

Hey guys,
I'm a new member and 2012 speed 3 owner. I passed 420 km last night and filled up the tank with Husky 94. This evening when I drove the car for 50 km it had noticeably less power (i was expecting it to feel a bit more livelier, if anything). I've been short shifting @ 4000 rpm and normally the engine pulls good from 3000 rpm +. Tonight, though, it felt rather weak. Even my wife in the passenger seat noticed a difference.

Have any of you guys experienced anything like this? Should I try a tank of Shell 91 next time out?

[ktms3]

I use to use shell 91 stock. When I got parts put on and stage two tune my car would knock with shell 91. I switched to huskey 94 car feels smoother but uses more gas. Switched to Petro 94 car feels the same as husky 94 but eats less gas.

My suggestion try Petro 94 and did you even break in your car yet? Lol I didn't wot till like 800 km when I got my 2010

[rovboy]

SE Calgary, expecting my MS3 this weekend ..... Needs help in lowering the car....any suggestion where to get lowering springs in calgary? .... Thanks

First time using a higher octane gas, specifically an ethanol blend can take time for the ECU to figure out. My suggestion is to avoid husky 94, and use the petro can ultra 94, youll get better gas mileage and the same gains. On the stock tune though, shell 91 should suit you just fine.

Thanks for your input. I'm not accelerating with WOT yet, more like 1/2 throttle.

Thanks, I was thinking it might be the ECU calibrating, especially since the car's not even broken in yet. I'll run a couple tanks of 91 through it again once this tank is done and see what happens.

Anyways, I'm impressed with the car thus far, it's a lot of fun to drive!

I can finally drive behind you without the worry of your powerful rear axle shotting rocks at my beautiful car.

Thank god! ROFLFLFLFLFLFLFFLFLFLLFFLFLFLFLFLFLFLFLFLFLFL

You're just jelly. Have you seen the road I live on? I need that protection for my beautiful white paint.

I run Husky 94 and it sucks back the gas like a binging alcoholic sucks back cheap vodka. I just found out the Petro in Cranston (SE) has 94 Ultra - going to be gassing it there from now on.

By thy way, welcome and congrats on the purchase. I am in Copperfield, and regularly open my garage to homeless people (aka secondchance) for some good old installs.
