Saw a BB with a huge spoiler tonight.... I can't say it looked good. If it's someone on here, I would politely suggest you remove it lol.

 

I saw a BB on bandera at a smaller dealer with just a Mazdaspeed spoiler, no appearance package, no lip, no nothing. It looked very odd.

 

I would want to do more performance type upgrades before I started looking like I'm fast lol.

 

I agree, the car looks pretty damn good as is (I think thats why most of us go this route....excluding rotary pride anyway)

 

Yeah, my goal was sort of a sleeper. I think I reached my goal and I will definitely never get beat by a Turbo beetle again

 

Yeah same here, and I say I don't want to put a turbo in but I'll probably change my mind later down the road lol. But like you said our cars aren't really meant for drag racing.

 

I would like to add a body kit though and spoiler cuz I like how it looks. I want that wide body look and I saw this 8 which looked like it had custom fenders or whatever they're called over the wheel well that made it stick out more but I couldn't find anything online or even know what to call it to search for it. I know they have the wide body kits but I also wanted to extend the part over the wheels out a little bit.

 

Turbo beetle? Please tell me that's a joke. My mom has the fastest stock beetle they made afaik and it wouldn't quite beat an 8 I don't think.

 

Widebody equals expensive (10k for the kit) and finding someone to install it properly would be nearly impossible in San Antonio.

Yep, walked me by like a car length a least. But then again my motor was on it's way out too.

 

And no mike.... No fi here ..... But there will be a super secret upgrade to beat your sc

 

Dang I didn't know it would cost that much lol.

 

Pontiac Grand AM V-6 swap?

 

Yeah, the best, most cost effective option currently is the Mazdatriz wide body setup but that is only for 2009+ RX-8's.

 

G14 classified?

 

I think the mazdatrix kit will work on the series 1 you just need some modification. Personally I wouldn't wide body my car until it had 600whp.

 

god I had that happen a few weeks back...ugh...I could just see the smile on his face as he pulled away. I wish I had a sign that said I need a compression test and possible new engine

 

Check this out.

Old news! The Shinari was first shown just over a year ago, actually. Still a beautiful car.

 

I remember looking at that a while back thinking you would need a chiropractor to go with those seats...guess thats why its a concept

 

I know it's old I just wanted to put the link up. The inside looks all futuristic. I don't think it shows it on that site but I saw it on another site.

 

Found these earlier... definitely tempting, even to protect the stock wheels I have (and don't really like...). Seems a bit expensive, but might be worth it for those with wheels worth protecting.

Hey wow those things are kinda cool. I have never had a problem with that part of the wrench scratching my wheels though.

 

Protip: Wrap the end of a 21mm socket with electrical tape.

 

Protip don't be a *****

 

Ooooh, I like. I wrap the the socket in electrical tape too but since I am often working on different peoples cars it would be nice to have that assortment.
