MX-3.com

Simple qestion that I find myself asking lately, is MX-3.com the least active forum that you guys go on also? I find more often than not that 4-5 days go by with whole sections not being posted in. And not just small sections, sections like Off-Topic, General MX-3, and Images/Videos. Back in the day these forums were alot more active and I wonder if it's because nobodys modding MX-3s anymore or if there just aren't any MX-3s left anymore through the years. Just something that's been going through my mind lately.

It near the top ya, there isn't much going on in the last 6 months. Its a shame really

Not the least active but far from the busiest. I've been doing alot of work on my car but haven't posted much, so laziness is an issue for me!

leastest? but no, i think its pretty active as far as the forums i visit go

It's pretty much the only one I go to...

i was also thinking about this lately. however ive come up with a logical reason.


i find that i have problems with my mx3 very often, always stupid little problems that i always figure out myself.

i feel like i never have to come onto mx-3.com or any other forum for that matter, to help myself figure out a problem, because i dont need too. if i have popping in my front end im going to jack it up and start shaking it down before i go online and type up a "popping in front end thread"

forums are great for when you need info on whats compatible from other cars, or why they aernt compatible, or when you want to buy or sell. for anything else its best to just step back and look at the problem you have at hand by yourself and just figure it out that way.

I find its been inactive too... but we have had an influx of new members in the past two months. I've kept myself busy some evenings finding responses to the usuals....

Wyt has had some interesting threads, and like usual, they are essays Keeps me busy too.

I just find a lot less "money" and "mods" being spent and done on mx3's lately. Just look at woklogs, there are really only a few that are updated weekly, most have been abbandoned. I barely update mine once a month lately.. Money is tight! I just wish there were more idas being published, new rims being fit, cool mods that are being done etc. Maybe its because the winter is coming who knows!

you want new rims being fit??

im pretty sure those slipstreams will be mine very soon.... theres an update for all of you

I find it a little slow compared to last year. Even Jesse isn't posting. I work 12-13 hour shifts on a Flight Line instead of in an office so my computer time is limited. Too much work to do as well around the house. I did my first mod on JBeef's car. Fake,,simulated carbon window wipers.

definitely not, I used to be a regular on a local speed forum. Guys are too immature and most of discussion is hating on each other, discussing local city problems, whinging, etc. Mostly bashing other people though.

I've been busy tryin to find a job and finishing up the 21 credit's I'm taking so I can graduate in 3 weeks.

I'm also moving anywhere from 3-12 hrs away, and since I don't have a job yet I don't know where I'm going!

No money/time/garage to work on the car

Soon though. I spend the little time I have reading instead of writing, I plan to buy another mx3 and really restore her. This is dependent on having a garage at my new place though, otherwise that idea will have to wait awhile. I'm sick of working under a carport.

YEA! Good. I got a surprise for everyone come spring

Even though I'm new here I'll give my $0.02. Most mx3 guys are dropping bp or bpts in there cars and clubprotege seems to have the most knowledge of that motor. I joined here because I'm going v6 and using mx3 parts. Good information here, thanks to those here for that . probetalk is where I go for the 2.5 knowledge. That place moves the fastest of all forums I hit. There is 1 that creeps so don't think this 1 is bad.

I agree that PT is the mecca of KL stuff by far. Its to bad that the "plastic probe" is so popular and the mx isn't. Still, good stuff to be found there. There just more of a fun factor knowing you can have a v6 in a smaller mx3 then a big lug like a probe or a nice car like a mx6 (still bigger)
