A bit late for intro, but here I am nevertheless. I am from India and working now in Swindon (and I get the feeling that MazdaTech works here as well, since I saw him mention Wooton Bassett somewhere) and got my 6 MPS from a private seller in Kent (near Durham). She is silver and has done 40k miles and drives very nice. Very excited and have already pushed her around the bends at 60 mph, what a feeling! My previous car was an ex-plod Vauxhall Omega 3.0 MV6 and though it was quick, the handling is no match for MPS
For upgrades, I am thinking of fitting a Corksport SRI, if Danny Wright from Wrights Mazda gets his stock this month, or I might have to order from across the border
I might also go for a custom dual exit exhaust backbox from Longlife Berkeley, but not sure about what gains I can get from it. And then I want to re-map the car at Sanspeed.
On the cosmetic side, I would want to have red brake callipers and maybe change my brake discs to something non-corrosive (any suggestions please?) lastly, I think that my Pirelli Pzero wheels make a lot of road noise, might want to replace them with Ultrac Sessantas when they wear out..
With that I am done with the ranting, thanks for reading!

Hello and welcome.

Gald you like the car and look forward to seeing the mods.

Piccies required

The sessantas are very quiet, quieter even than Toyos. They ride better, certainly in 225/45/18 95Y form and understeer less. Don't know about PZerros though.

Yes Sir! Thats what I have read as well. I mean, I am not keen to shell out lot of money for Michelin PS2's when I can get a similar performance from Sessantas. The only thing is that my car's previous owner replaced all 4 tyres with Pirelli PZero Rosso, which came "recommended" from Mazda in Durham So I would say I still have a good 8-9k miles minimum to go, before I can replace my tyres, unless I go the ebay way and sell my tyres to get the sessantas. Camskill seem to be out of stock, so may be event tyres when I go for them!

Yes silver is the fastest colour. FACT

Jesus Christ, I just re-read my post, and seems like the name of my old car has been replaced by GM Muck..LOL. What a filter we have here! :P
Thanks for the welcome!

the only trouble is when you input "silver is fastest" it doesnt come up with "i am talking rubbish"

Coming soon,braided brake hoses, maybe tints/vinyl(stickers)

Tranceporter, I had to wait for my sessantas because they were out of stock with Tyretraders. Seems to be a common problem.
