First appearance mod since i got the car. Plasti dipped the stock wheels. Plan to lower it and tint windows, headslights and tail lights soon.

[Travis]

Did this last week just forgot to post it.



Currently working on headliner components and throwing the suede on the headliner.

[jeopardy98]

Got my tires rotated. I'm heading into the dealer for my first (free) oil change. Should I just skip it and do my own with the rotella? If they ever ask for oil receipts for warranty work and they all show rotella oil will that be used against us? I love Rotella and use it in all my motorcycles but I don't want it to come back to haunt me if I ever have a problem.

Going to be installing my corksport occ with daddy chinkus later today

Just keep your receipts and write the mileage down on them for tracking purposes. But no it won't void the warranty.

Let me know how your bumper dip holds up to washes. I dipped my emblems, but I'm replacing them with a new set of painted (not plastic dipped) ones in a few days, but they've managed to hold up to one automatic car wash so far

I did my wheels six months ago and probably 20 power washes no issues so far.

[Rich990]

I'll take it for a wash on Saturday, I use one where they use high pressure hoses to spray the shit off the car, so I'm a bit worried about it... I'll post back here after that and let u know how it went

I'm sure it's gonna be fine, that plasti-dip is good stuff plus they also came out with a smoke out for your head and tail lights. Got some coming in the mail, I'll let everybody know how it works and looks. BTW you car looks like shit!! lol

Use this for emblems and trim.

It peels easy like plasti dip, and that's the issue I'm probably going to have somewhere down the line. One of these days I'm going to brush a little more harshly over the dipped parts, and end up peeling the coat off.

Thanks for the suggestion anyway

Yeah man the cops hate us, no matter where you drive. South Africa, wow awesome!! Dude I'm just fuckin with you, your car is so much more shiny than mine, I hate you! lol

Put gas in her.

On another note, I received my replacement badges and fog surrounds, and prepped and painted them. I'm waiting for the clear coat to dry (6 coats), then I'll remove my current plastidipped badges tomorrow. I hope the 3M adhesive removal doesn't cause me too much issue

[PUGENE]

Had my resonator removed today....was hoping for a little more sound but I am pretty disappointed. I is louder but I need the gargle from a cat back and dp....But I don't want to spend the money until I can do a full TBE...

what badges did you get?

[f-castrillo]

The OEM ones. Front and rear M, Mazdaspeed, 3, and the fog light surrounds. I'm replacing my stickers because the adhesive job I did on them looks like ass, and the plasti dip doesn't have the glossy look I was going for

Plasti-dip makes a gloss check it out at Dipyourcar.com. They also have a smoke for your tail and head lights, got some coming in the mail.

No prob.

[SlickDevil]

she got a bath and also purchased some AT Internals

[Acedelgado]

Today was FP internals day. Mission complete

[itg3rl]

Washed and waxed both our rides. Yesterday, was the big day though; Beachshoer installed our internals in both cars and Installed the BOV, RMM, SSP in my sexy Red baby.
Was a great day for us.

[beachshoer]

^ she forgot to mention last weekend swapped my smokin k04 with a used one. About ready to send if off and do a bnr s3. Wasn't as hard as I thought it would be just lots of knuckle busting.

[Daftboy]

today's fun..

[f-castrillo]

Flashed a new map revision. The newest changes has some pretty lean fueling targets at cruise loads from 500-3000 RPM (17:1 AFR), as well as some advanced timing in the same areas.

The result: my media display in the car is showing 29-30 MPG after a regular drive

Can someone say SKYACTIV Mazdaspeed3? Lol

Post your timing map...I am curious how much you have advanced in the lean areas...

[PUGENE]

Hhhhh

[f-castrillo]

I'll do it after I get off work, but long story short, it's the timing values in @bnoon's first post in his MPG tuning thread. I haven't had a chance to advance it further, but I do know that i didn't see any KR during an hour drive one way, rest, and an hour drive back. I could probably advance it further, once I have a few minutes to jump back into ATR

Edited out my plates finally and here are some pictures of the evolution of my Pu














Front emblem is black as well but I don't seem to have a photo of the nose since I have done it....

Had the tints done saturday

[jeopardy98]

So do you blur your plate while it is sitting in the parking lot as well?

[PUGENE]

I'm not the only one that does it. Not too difficult to find out a lot of info about someone with just a license plate number. I know there are other ways to find out information, but eliminating one is better than none.
