    while you're out there, you might as well adjust your air/fuel ratio by smell... and your tire pressure by ride height

    hmm...

    in any random order

    -RMM intake, eventually the only parts used where the adapter plate and filter itself
    -RMM exhaust, eventually replaced by custom 2" bent with Magnaflow muffler after RMM muffler rusted out
    -Centerforce Dual Friction Clutch, eventually replaced by oem clutch, not long before killing the car
    -bronzeoil shifter bushings, seemed to help, lots of play still
    -cross-drilled brake rotors, this was stupid, shouldn't have done it
    -hawk front pads, ended up locking up the fronts way too often, ruined bias
    -ST front add-on sway bar
    -Off the Line Motorsports front lower tie bar, bent that crap out of that pretty quickly
    -oem MX-3 SE rear lower tie bar, still owe one to David, and "mine" is still in Oklahoma...oops
    -ST springs, fine springs, but too soft for what I eventually did with the car
    -Tokico Blue Protege spec shocks, again, good but too soft for what I eventually did
    -Mazda Motorsports camber bolts, still never got more than 1.5 degrees negative....boo
    -ST rear sway bar, eventually replaced with Quickor 1" bar, although got mine through Gary, as I believe the last person to actually get a Compass Motorsports bar.
    -15 x 7 Kosei K1s, 205/50/15 Falken Azenis
    -14 x 5.5 oem alloys, 195/60/14 Sumitomo HTR200s, for the street
    -aftermarket speakers, head unit, amp....whatever, it worked and sounded ok, terrible wiring job, done by ME
    "Never run out of real estate, traction & ideas at the same time"
    -93 MR2, 129 ES
