    Default We meet again RPW.....

    So I joined this forum after purchasing my new car on monday a 06 mazda MPS.....

    So I'm browsing the forum and I find RPW.... I found this quite amusing.

    You see I have dealt with RPW in the past.... not recently about 4-5 years ago when i owned a TH magna....

    I wonder if Dave remembers the car... it was used for testing for a 3" mandrel bent exhaust and custom inlet manifold.....

    So you see I'm here to recommend RPW as I have had great experience with them..... Maybe in a few months time I might come knocking on your front door with MPS

    I vaguely remember a car but can't put a face to the person as you say 4 - 5 years ago was a long long time n the automotive world.

    And these days our business is very different to what it was 5 years ago, even 2 years ago.

    But I am sure I will recognise you the minute I see you.

    Yeah I'm sure you will... It was actually the car that ended up having your old bodykit off your forced induction magna.... obviously that car is long gone now, also had a bf xr6 turbo after that.. Now the mps.. Good to see you on the forum though

    You got me thinking now trying to remember the vheicle / face etc.

    I still think the TJ's were the best, still got mine and have no plans on getting rid of it. Although the XR6T would be a logical successor for me. Gotta love the big V6 turbo engines.

    Off topic, did you ever see the TMR 380? Limited run of 20 vehicles, although they were supercharged not turbo. I wish.

    I actually did like the TH alot.. I preferes the neat nose over the overhanging TJ nose. But at 180k kms it was time for the change... Do I went down the path of xr6t and to be honest the build quality of the car wasn't very good. I am a ford man deep down so I was disappointed. Bits were always lose, some bodykit and interior pieces fell off. The reason I now have the mps is I started to have a few issues with the car, and the 100k service was due. Was going to cost about 3-4k to keep the car going so decided time to change instead, as I only had to pay an extra 14k to get the mps. Already I have noticed the build quality to be superior even down to the remote. In still learning to drive it however, in a few months I'm sure the mod bug will bite...

    That would be a nice job working at TMR with all the race vehicles if your involved in that part of the job.
