Hi All. Names Max and i am of recent, the proud owner of an aluminium silver mk2 3mps I Have owned it for approx 1 month now and absolutely loving it! Only thing i don't like too much is the limp power in first gear. apparently this is Mazda's Torque limiter to stop torque steering?? (no fun!) I saw some of you and your MPS's parked up and racing around at Castle Combe for Japfest, was nice to see some immaculate looking car's on your stand, though i didn't see any Mk2 Aluminium Silver 3's there!? i took some Pics and short videos and put these on instagram and tagged these with #mpsoc if anyone wishes to go have a gander below is my favorite pic of the 3MPS, mostly because its just looks so mean, and it's what most unsuspecting boy racers only ever see  Will be having a read on your forum here for some useful hints and tips on general owning and modifying, and hopefully joining in with the fun and banter!
