JESUS christ...... merry christmas mother *******.. scums man. people who threaten other people's lives for money are the worst kind of people. i'm so glad you're alright tho.. i hope they find the ******** who did that to you bro.

i think the dealers will be able to reprogram it.. but i don't know how much it would be. call them and get a quote. hopefully your work will help pay for most of it

Your job's insurance should pay for it. Check with the officer who took the report. Glad your safe.

thanks guys appreciate the concern...yea im good now...a lil shaken and shocked after it happened thou...cuz unever think something like that would ever happen to you, and the place has cameras but it was a huge coincidence that at that moment it wasnt recording cuz some1 removed the tape, so idont think they'll b caught...we're thinking it was an inside job, those *************! but the money they stole from me the company refund it the next day, and for the keys, as soon as i get a quote on that igotta let the company know and the'll take care of it, so idont got to spend a cent.., ill be doing that this week...

Turbo Kits

Are any of these worth while? I was more interested in a Super charger but the $ are way off the Scale.

Any opinions on these: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/MAZDA...item27acdc66c1

Winter Tires - Pirelli 210 Sottozero

I just had a set of these mounted on MSW Type 14's (17"x7"s) from Tire rack. They're 225/50R-17's, I'm amazed at the handling difference from the summer tires.
They're Run flats - Who the heck wants to change a tire in this weather.

I wouldn't trust ebay turbos unless you are willing to replace about half the stuff in there as those are either bad parts, incorrect parts, or missing parts.

Thanks just wondering if they were worthwhile, but as always you get what you pay for.

Not such a good card but at least we can make an eating and meet out of it. I guess we should meet up at 9:00pm. I'm not sure if I will have my car by then but I hope so.

i have the rotary compression tester (the official one that mazda uses) that someone local let me borrow, but if you're planning on testing your "insurance" motor you should know the results will be skewed if the engine is not completely warm and if you dont have sufficient rpm (aka you need a starter!)
