  1. Yes. They don't. Therefore I swap arms two times a year. Originator of the Millenia wiperarms on Xedos mod.

     

    The way people shake their heads when they're told about it, tells me it's worth it :lol:

     

    true attention to detail and funtionality!

     

     

    thanks for the other info as well. how do i translate that page? I have been trying to find a swaybar in the US off a parts car but am having bad luck. I want to make sure the brackets for the bar are also included and will definitely ask for some Pics to locate the correct point to secure the bar.

     

  2. i would be interested in the swaybar. would she fit my milly? I would be willing to pay $140US if someone can ship it to my door.

     

    would this sway bar need to be modified slightly like the 01-02 bar to fit on 95-00. i am guessing not since it says it came off a 95S.

     

    never seen the stock cooler before, she's tinny. BHR you install your yet or is it still collecting dust?

  3. my bro is looking at a 2001 milly S with only 25K. i think he may get it for 8500. she is a beauty too!

     

    I hit 75K the other day. I miss the days of 42K when i bought her.

     

    25k? Did you mean 125? Heck i wouldnt even think about it if its only 8500.

     

    I just drove 4 hrs on Saturday, went to a mountain. The bill is two chips on the hood one half inch large, and a crack on the windshield!!! Heck heck heck, first crack!!!

     

     

    Yup 2001 S ONLY 25K. it is a private seller, he said it was his moms car who passed away. Only one small scratch to be buffed out on the bumper. The only thing to think for my bro is if he wants another milly. this would be my brothers 3rd. (I am on my second) He can afford a much much nicer car and has been looking at anything with a stickshift also. but i think he's gonna do it, he has milly in his blood and you cant beet that price and those many miles, you just cant find one like that too easy.

     

    I am planning on getting a "new" car for my company and putting one of those car wrap ads on it (i know tacky but good advertising) so i hope to garage my milly and promote her to "weekends only" by 90K.

  4. screw warden

     

    chi - it might have been an honest mistake, out of the 20 or so purchases from SL I only had 1 problem where they sent me some blue tinted #74's instead of LED #74's. I sent an email and with in several hours got a response, anotehr 2 days and the correct bulbs were on my doorstep free of charge.

     

    A company with a decent rep and product is one thing, but a company who makes a mistake and then goes out of there way to fix it will continue to always have my business

     

    they still have my biz, they reconciled the issue quickly and the new bulbs should arrive soon, but they did not admit to the diff in light output which is obvious. they 20towers i sent back were crap.

  5. they emailed me back very quickly and said they will exchange them.

     

    they also said the specs are the same but the led on the right has a smaller bubble lens. that is crap, it is half as bright. if you look in the center of the led the good ones have 2 little red dots and the bad ones have 1 per led, I assume that is what is causing the diff in light output.

  6. When I was driving home this mourning (normally lol) I stopped at a stop-light and this lady in an audi a4 (I think) convertible pulled up next to me. She beeped and told me to roll down my window, so I did. She told me to take good care of the milly. She said she used to have one, a 2000 S. She said she loved it, and REGRETS trading it in for that audi, which is like an 06', 07' model. She was like make sure to change the oil when scheduled and keep it well maintenanced. And she pissed Mazda doesn't make it anymore lol. So basically the milly is the greatest car.

     

    sounds like BHR's dream girl, did you get the plate? we should hook them up.

     

  7. Mod complete. I will do a writeup and get pics of them on the car when my amber leds arrive. I had to do some dremeling to the back of the housing, i replaced the bolts in the back with bigger ones, and had to cut the oem rubber to fit. It will all be secured with two large washers from inside the wheel well and tightened down with a nut.

  8. very interesting. good write up on an idea i never thought of! As for the Chitown intake, this seems to mirror what i have found from building the intakes. stage 1 of the intake (delete fender resonator) added the most performance gains and a nice sound. After installing stage 2 i did not feel any noticeable gains but the intake did get louder because of the second resonator delete. I assume a small gain is accomplished by the tubing being 3" from filter to TB however.

  9. fantastic. i like how the sun comes out when you pull up at the end of the first video...majestic. when you pull up at the end of the 2nd video it sounds like an airplane landing : )

     

    I would have bought a Remus for me bday but my car got hit instead, 1st quote...450 for dent removal and paint, including a small refinish on the bumper.
