Right click, then SAVE AS....

Oh, trust me.....its a million times louder in person.

The digital camera has such a weak microphone built in. Its so loud, I get worried I will shatter someone's window when I take off next to them.

Can I ask where you got the old school Mazda logo for the center of the steering wheel? I can use one.

Thanks,

If it's an N/A engine and he isn't running a header/manifold, it's got you beat, and beat badly. I took my car for a drive with just a header once - got halfway down my street before I had enough of its blaring rumble, but man could it sound cool idleing. When it's that loud and you actually drive it, it feels so slow because it sounds like you should be going a whole lot faster.

I agree in getting it fixed, sounds like a beater.

Yeah....lol..

If adding an exhaust can make it louder....I would like to hear that....haha.

Yes, I plan on getting it fixed....I try to not drive the car, for fear that I will get a ticket.

That old M, is from some old Rx-3, Rx-4........or so I've heard. I can only guess you can get that center piece from one of them. It came with the car when I bought it.

Oh, and I know what you mean about it feeling slow, because it sounds like you should be going so much faster......5,000rpm sounds like I am doing 120mph......and thats just shifting into 3rd.
