Fiji ST Posted October 25, 2008 Report Share Posted October 25, 2008 Well, it's been a long time since I've been on here, so I figured I should refresh everyone's memory. My name is Nick and I drive a 2005 Mazda3 sedan. I graduated from Ohio Wesleyan in 2007, helped run a popular car club here for five years, moved back home to Pittsburgh, and as of yesterday, again became a resident of Central Ohio. I figured since I'm back out here, I should get back into the car community, and what better place to do that then this forum?? Enough of the boring shit. Here's some pictures, and if you want to see what I've done to my car, click my CarDomain link in my signature. If you see me around Bethel Road, give me a honk or flip me the bird, whatever you feel is most appropriate. http://i237.photobucket.com/albums/ff66/naborgia/8-15-08/Pilot141.jpg http://i237.photobucket.com/albums/ff66/naborgia/8-15-08/Pilot124.jpg http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb276/coondogg15210/ac1ee80e.jpg 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTQ B4U Posted October 25, 2008 Report Share Posted October 25, 2008 considering you're likely much more than stock, it may be less than interesting but perhaps fun to see. won't happen until next spring though as I'm rolling on my winter set up and they aren't grip-happy on pavement. however for a stock ride...yeah, she lives up to the handling, power capabilities more so than most, especially in it's price range. you also don't have to live cheaply inside either as she has the best interior of all of them, hands down. She ran consistent 13.8-13.9's when I had her out. still tough to get a launch down on the stock rubber though. The MM's eliminated the wheel hop though so that should help. On the street she's still not able to wind out first or second without spinning so that limits her go-ability. I'm still getting used to her though. can it now? care to do a 20 roll to prove this theory Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTQ B4U Posted October 25, 2008 Report Share Posted October 25, 2008 TRZ Dogbone Poly. It's not as stiff as the Delrin ones...those would vibrate and annoy me. I just wanted to remove wheel hop and it did. What MM did you go with? I've got the Corksport inserts in mine and they're okay, but the vibrations get out of hand sometimes.
