Catch 22 i find myslef in is NOT wanting to drive it, to save it... as much as i desperatly want to go for a cruise. I know, its rediculous.

[Flaverre]

When people ask if it's a civic

When you spend 4 hours searching MSF, rather than starting a new thread, so that you don't have to deal with an asshole telling you how much of a idiot you are and to go SEARCH!

[b2bomber]

• When you realize that you only have a 2k power band window.

• When you start thinking about modding in steps, then search the forums and find out you should probaly just get the AP, HPFP internals, and intake to start.

• If when you see a caliber SRT-4, you shake your head.

[Butterybunz]

When you plug in your AP every time you get into your car just in case you decide to do a pull or race someone.

When you see kr past 4 degrees at part throttle and get worried the rest of the drive home.

When you beat your friend with a new g37s in a race four times in a row and he texts you at 2 am "How is that thing fast?" ... Someone can't sleep...

When you would rather listen to your car then the stereo for two reasons: 1) the rumble of the exhaust and the sound of the BPV 2) Our stereos SUCK!

[kritz]

When you start putting money away for the inevitable crankcase venting event.

[MS3inDC]

You know you drive a mazdaspeed when...

... You spend countless hours of your life researching and modding your car only to realize that you still aren't "fast"

... Every week there is a new rattle noise in the cabin

... You stop looking for those new rattle noises in the cabin.

... You realize that you've been speaking msf short-hand to you other car friends who have been lost for ther past five minutes. "So I just installed my CAI, TIP CDFP, DP and AP. Now I'm ready to use ATR to do a MAF cal, and then take some WOT logs".

[Abu Zib]

when your drunk friends look at the access port and say they like it better when they see positive numbers (when monitoring boost)

[dantes5823]

When your next mod is building the motor

[galens47]

When passenger reading the AP says "fuck we are going 120".

When your passenger asks you to stop while driving twisties to puke.

When I hear another speed3 I know what it is without turning to look.

When I have a mod plan for after zoom zoom boom.

When I'm excited to make a 2 stop fill up: E85 and 91.

When your wife would rather ride in your Speed than her CX-9. When your kids in the back seat scream "Faster Daddy! Faster Daddy!" Then giggle for ever!

[Billtom]

When you violate probation every time you unplug your ignition interlock just to play with your ap

[Shadow]

You know you own a speed when, when you first showed the car to your wife you drove it easy and showed her the lie mpg shown on the dash to be able to buy it.

When your drives become a search for a real car to race and you just let civics play with other trash.

When you hit a pot hole your chest hurts as much as your rim.

When you check for boost leaks every oil change.

When you say because racecar after every question someone asks you about the ride.

When is it manual is asked you want to slap them and say all ms3s are manual.

When people ask you why your bov is so quiet, and your reply is because racecar not ricecar.

When ( for us jersey drivers) you stare down the gas attendant to be sure he hits 93 and not 87.

When your on msf just to be around people that understand why you love your car.

I'm done. Fuckers

....... when your TRZ TMM sounds like nuts, bolts, washers, and marbles are being blended togther in a tin can by a lawn mower blade and convincing yourself..... "Yeah thats normal".

[Jhornbrook]

When you work a low paying job to be able to use the lift and work on your own car.

When you have more stock parts in your garage and closet than you do in your car.

"You know you drive a Mazdaspeed3 when you can't tell if you have a tire going down or if you're just driving on a crappy road."

[sho]

You know you own a speed3 when:
your friends say "ah you got mazda 3"
and you don't say anything until you take them for a ride and they're grabbing the oh shit bar asking you how the hell your car is that fast.

When the guys at e-check stall your car 3 times in an attempt to move your car from the obd scanning station to the fuel cap pressure test station

When the old guy in the Audi a4 next to you rolls down his window and tells you "nice exhaust" with a sarcastic tone and tries to pull on you at 40mph thinking he's gonna blow the doors of your wagon

When every sound your car makes driving home from work on the freeway your first thought is (Fuck, what did I just break now!) as you look in the rear view mirror for traces of oil, smoke, and your engine pieces. When your wife comments "if you spent as much time working on our marriage as you do on that stupid car we would have a happy marriage" and you think to yourself, "thanks to the time I put into this car I have a happy marriage." when you embezzle money from your joint account to afford your next fix or upgrade without the family knowing.

You know you drive a speed3 when you have clean the front wheel brake dust 2x more than the rear.

[b3nnno]

when you actually look forward to filling up bc of your e85 addiction

[Novej]

When opening your door in a crowded parking lot, you prepare yourself for the moment mother nature exacts her revenge by special delivering that one rogue gust of wind whose sole purpose is to catch said door and send it flying into the vehicle parked next to you......(That'll show you for fucking with OEM emission components asshole!)

[thatsmrgimp2u]

When you smell gas, oil, coolant, or skunk while driving and automatically start thinking about what you are going to check when you reach your destination.

when your butt dyno feels like the car has lost a step in the past 30k miles and you know its because of carbon buildup on the intake valves.

[simply_pandora]

When a dodge challenger pulls up next to you at a light, you both take off, and a 5.0 chases you to see what the hell the debadged hatchback is, tries, and pursues - confused.

And at that point, I had my grandma in my car.
