Best First mods IMO would be engine mounts and SRI intake, I have a COBB SRI, spooling noises and factory BOV noises are the business.

Welcome mate!
Thought i recognised ur name off ausrotary.....loved your old 7. I also had an FD before the MPS...was actually gonna get Troy to build me a 20B before i sold my 7.
You reasoning to buy an MPS was pretty much the same as me hahaha.
Once you dig around this site, you'll be wanting to pour the money into the MPS hahahaha
Enjoy!!
So I found out the shocks are no good.. What's the best replacement? Or has any body got some laying around?
Yeah I've also just blocked off the factory bov port and let the bov vent to atmosphere.. It's starting to pop through the exaughst now I'm guessing that is due to it needing to learn and not having that extra air pushing through on the Decel
Gen 1 were known for VVT, Timingchain , and smokey turbo fail.
If shocks are gone heaps of good Koni , Bilstein, Coilovers combo.
if the sound in the engine bay is on the right side that's all good just injectors if sound on left side not so good.
Ok so I spoke to sydney wholesale suspension they recommend along with Mazda for the mps a koni shock at $205 each.. My mate can also get a bilstien for $140 each but they are to suit a sp23 is there a big deifference? Being an aftermarket shock the bilstien they should hold up too the power better than a standard one I'm guessing? So lost hahahaha
i also need lower control arm rear pillow bushes can someone Recomend where to get these from and a rough price?
Sp23 stuff doesn't work on a mps, they are 200kg lighter than our cars, so it throws everything out :(
Hit up gsl or edge for proper bilsteins (b6 standard height, b8 lowered)
