Hi I'm Dhiraj friends call me Raj, I own a silver 2006 Mazda 3 hatchback. I haven't done much to her except lil cosmetic work smoked the front and rear lights and recently installed a speed3 stock exhaust. I am planning doing some more stuff to my baby....hopefully I could get some pointers....I was introduced to this forum by a buddy....I'm still getting used to the forum....there maybe some things I may be slow or I might ask some questions that have an obvious answer......please bear with me...thats me and my baby in a nut shell

sorry still getting used to the forum.....the exhaust is awesome.....the day I got it installed I couldnt even concentrate at work I just loved the sound of it so much that I kept finding an excuse to go out on my breaks and I never did that prior to the mod........its just something and I still love the sound of it....hopefully I can focus on other mods

thanks a lot souls....really appreciate the advice I got the tints already....I guess I'll start with the calipers first and make my way down the list.....hopefully I could do everything you mentioned
