Hi folks. New to the forum. Just picked up a mk2 3MPS last week and thought I'd register. Having always had hot hatches in the past my previous car was actually a BMW 123D M sport coupe(boo....diesel!)  Superb car as far as diesels go. I had it purely because my "commute" is 500 miles each way..so my previous EK9 civic type R had to go! Here's the MPS... A car that's one of 'those' that I've always fancied but never got round to buying one.  Soon going to be working a lot closer to home so won't be worrying about fuel costs! I also have a mk1 MX5 As well that the Mrs is driving. So I'm a huge fan of Mazda (Jap cars in general)   It's a 1994 1.8is with bride seats/full suspension setup etc.. I'll get round to posting some more pics of both the cars eventually. Anyway, looking forward to using the forum.

Ill be on the lookout for more mps' when I'm in killie Fraser. I use the gym in shortlees with the club I've got the corksport stage 2 intake, there's the sure one or the James Barone one is getting popular. If I didn't have one I'd go for the James Barone racing. I've got a few of their other products and the quality is excellent I've got the middle silencer and 2nd decat removed from mine. I think removing the first cat can cause problems with the turbo seals.
