My old rides, to my new one

[McGuyver_3]

Do your swapped lights have the adaptive stuff? Or did you lose that by swapping? I wouldn't give up the adaptive headlights in my car ever.

Either way, welcome to the club...you can start hanging out with us now we'll teach you how to speed.

The headlights do have the AFS function in them

The ones that he put into his speed are not afs. They are just halogen. A serious downgrade in performance and a big loss in money.

Sorry, but I made those headlights. They are fused AFS lights with base model non AFS lights. They have the LED angel eyes and clear lenses installed modified for the nice blue cutoff. Those were on my 2010 speed with AFS and now they are on Ryans 2012 speed

Ah. Then that wouldn't be able to be seen from just this picture.
Why would you use a speed 3 projector instead of an aftermarket mini h1 or fxr which are better?

[McGuyver_3]

I am happy with the output of the stock projector with the clear lenses. I have properly aimed my headlights with a laser level which had a drastic improvement in light output. I have never had any issues with just using clear lenses.

Hi Ryan

[Reddie1337]

Hmm, what's happened since September.

Did compression check, 185, 185, 190, 190

Extremely happy about those numbers.

Installed the AP V2B in the car with a JBR OTS map with target of 17psi.
CP-e CAI and TIH
Autotech hpfp internals
Straight piped the resonator
Hollowed the muffler out (cut all baffold pieces out)
Gutted the second cat (after the O2 sensors)
TWM Short Shifter Replacment
Short Shift plate
JBR PMM
CP-e Rear Trans Mount
JBR Top Trans Mount (awaiting install)
Painted the grille CWP to match
Got my 2-way remote start installed (Clifford 1.2x from previous car)
Kenwood DNX891HD
Diode Dynamics H11 HID in the fog lights
Diode Dynamics Switchbacks in the signals
LED rear reflectors
LED interior lights
Only lights that aren't HID Or LED in the car are the rear signal bulbs.

I think that's currently how it sits. Needs front sway bar bushings, and a good interior detail, but it has 172500k on it now, and I still love it as much as I did back in June.



Top is just HID fogs, bottom is HID fogs and factory HIDs.




Oh, and I finally sold the Sky, didn't make much, but didn't lose either. And then in December I got a Mazda 3 from the forum for my fiancée. And she loves it. 2011 Mazda 3 GS with moonroof and leather. Which I promptly took the leather out because she HATES leather.

The mod list on her car is,

Factory Mazda navigation added
Full Speed3 seat swap
Sri (Typhoon with CP-e filter)
Focus emount Rear transmission mount
Factory HID assembly from 2010 model
Corksport LED 3rd brake light

And it got pretty much every fluid and filter changed that it could because I wasn't sure of the previous service history, as well as new link kits and brakes all around. It's been a great car so far. Happy I could get her into a Mazda 3.

What it looked like when I got it


What it currently looks like, and my most expensive Christmas ever. Lol

My 18" black rims would really take her ride to the next level ��
You should buy them for her

Haha, I wouldn't mind, but if I really needed to put 18" rims on this, I have a set of Speed6 rims I need to use up. The tires that came with the car aren't anything special, but the tread is still really good, so I think we will chew threw those before I change up the rim/tire combo.
