Mazda 3 MPS

Description:

Testing the water to see who'd be interested in my Mazda 3 MPS 2.3T. MOT until November 2014, Taxed until August 2014. Just had a full service completed at Mazda. PSH as one of the chaps who owned it before me only used it twice a week and his son was a Mechanic.

Pretty much immaculate paint work with a few stone chips here and there as you'd expect from an 8 year old car. Always ran the car on V power Nitro+ due to the tune requiring premium octane fuel, but it's good as the higher octane will help prevent detonation as it stands. Always used 5W-40 Shell helix ultra oil. You can see 40+MPG cruising, but if you get heavy footed you can kiss your wages goodbye.

Engine wise, the timing chain has just been re-done at Mazda. It's running a Hypertech tune, Corksport SRI+TIP, Turbosmart BPV and second cat delete (race pipe). A chap in the states with exactly the same mods ran 296bhp and 324lb-ft. She is by no means a slug, and suprises most things who try and play. Never had any issues other than a flat battery aha. It has been lowered 40mm on H&R springs and is running gloss black sprayed 18" alloys from the RX-8, (minor scuff marks due to audi drivers..)

Essentially this car is my baby as I'm only 21. Lots of money has been spent on her. I'm a perfectionist. The reason for the sale is that I'm looking at a RWD big powered car for a bit of fun, as they say, power corrupts!
