    I used to have this sepang green 6i on tein springs & shave the throttle body for what.. 2hp? [emoji1787]

    I’ve come a long way from those days, but some things never change & that’s that I just love the speed 6, man
    Now I like all mazdas & imo the speed3 being awd would change the whole game

    but anyway, I bought that speed6 in Las Vegas
    I was sleeping in the desert working two jobs & was kinda lying to my boss & everybody just making it look like I had it together & I went in there with $500 down & paid 3x too much about 17k for 74k miles
    She was literally home many times & ive climbed a mountain in it, been through blizzards & beaches & just everywhere.
    People are astounded by the capabilities of the car let alone how nice of a car it really is ?
    Am I d*ck riding ? Lol


    I paid her off just last month.

    This was my dream car & it still is..
    2 weeks ago I picked up a totaled speed6 to use it for parts
    So far it’s a gold mine. Everything I could ever ask for in a vehicle. My heart goes out to the previous owner :/ he’s gotta miss it

    I was a chef in STL for the past 5 years or so, but since COVID I’ve been finding myself & really growing as an individual.
    Forgiving myself for the anger & shame I may face, but truly, it’s been a blessing.
    Gotta do that shadow work!

    WHEW anyway my name is Angelo
    You can call me “Gelo”
    Just turned 28 in September
    I love hip hop, atmosphere is my jam
    Mos Def, gangstarr all classic conscious shit, but I don’t hate on any genre honestly. I like music.
    I skateboard. I help build skateparks & pour concrete from time to time.
    Got to skate with Tony Hawk a couple years back!
    I garden
    Man this is long but I bet you guys are rad I know how forums work trust me I was a shithead kid & I got what I deserved lol

    I’ve applied & start classes for protuner
    I’m hooked, man
    I got the itch


    Currently out of work, but I did manage to get my car running better than ever just by doing my research & taking my time.
    Big things to come !!
    Thank you to everyone who makes this possible !!

    Welcome to mso, what happened to the front end of that car? I presume you've got it running since then if I read it correctly?

    Nah the parts car’s motor & trans is still good, & I even found contact information from the previous owner. I got lucky & found the fob in the car but no key. So I haven’t turned it on, but I do have a good buddy at Mazda who might help me out there.
    I’ve got 2! One dark gunmetal kinda grey the other is silver

    Apparently the kid caught a pole head on at a pretty good speed.
    I don’t know much, but he was hospitalized.
    He’s fine now, but he couldn’t even afford to get it from the wrecker yard after everything :/

    I feel pretty bad for him, yo
    He had a very, very nice speed6

    I needed a miracle after the year I’ve had [emoji1787]
    Karma’s only a bitch if you are, eh?




    Didn’t plan well at all & had no tools or winches or even a jack to help lol
    The car was so slow it was stuck to the transport

    Putting everything I got into this thing [emoji1787]
