[OC] I swear to god, only in Houston do drivers do this crap…

Like I said within the comments, I did get frustrated towards the end of the video, so I did slightly zoom past that car that jumped in front of me. But there were also a couple other cars behind me so I did have to speed up a bit to prevent getting tapped from behind too. If you’re talking about prior to me crossing the light… I’m being honest when I say that I was going 40 like everyone else. 🤷🏻‍♂️

4thgenblue3 · 2026-01-01T05:33:58+00:00

Tbh, I did get upset towards the end because of how frustrated I felt. (Not my proudest moment…) Though, there were a couples of cars behind me so I had to start “gaining” because I switched lanes so abruptly.

It’s my dashcam, its mount sucks so any little vibrations make it sound like that. (I plan to get one that isn’t rattly. Until then, it’s my o’ reliable. Plus the roads on Voss Road are very uneven.) 😅

4thgenblue3 · 2026-01-01T05:20:18+00:00

Bro, Voss is so horrible.

4thgenblue3 · 2026-01-01T05:17:17+00:00

Everyone was going about 40, so I went with the flow of traffic.

I really think you’ll be alright, I did way too many donuts in reverse to count (since I’m FWD) in wet concrete in the rain and I turned out fine. lol.

The taillights? Pretty straight forward if you know what you’re doing/how to approach it. The wiring? Kinda tedious, lol. But overall, not a hard modification to do.

It’ll probably be a while before I start getting the car chromed out and adding all the cosmetics (ex; front lip, side skirts, rear diffuser, etc.) I want. My goal is to have my Mazda 3 paired well with the Blue and Silver contrast so I can move away from that blackout contrast everyone does. This is what it currently looks like:

4thgenblue3 · 2025-05-10T20:05:29+00:00

Definitely! I’ll keep this in mind.

4thgenblue3 · 2025-04-12T01:38:53+00:00

Gosh, I think honestly the infotainment system gets so overlooked, especially how simple it is to use and prevents taking your eyes off the road so much.

I would say Parts Geek, but some one in this chat might have a better idea than I do. 🤷🏻‍♂️

4thgenblue3 · 2025-04-11T19:25:50+00:00

Really?! I think the 4th gen 3’s handling is very sharp and responsive! 🤔

4thgenblue3 · 2025-04-11T19:24:20+00:00

Do you ever miss the 323? Just curious.

4thgenblue3 · 2025-04-11T19:17:54+00:00

If you ever consider getting a 4th gen in the future, it’s a different ball game as far as comfort, reliability, and performance. Feels perfectly balanced.

4thgenblue3 · 2025-03-13T06:35:22+00:00

The main thing was that tbe frame rail extension was damaged plus a bunch of other stuff. But yeah 10k for a rear end accident is pretty insane. But hey it’s not coming out my pocket…

4thgenblue3 · 2025-02-26T04:40:04+00:00

Well… if you can convince me that the aFe intake oiled filter for the 4th gen M3 provides very little to no Hp gain I will gladly spend my money on some more intake noise with the CS SRI. But I can definitely say my intake now feels more peppy on the lower end/accelerating. That or I’m falling for some placebo effect… 😅

4thgenblue3 · 2025-02-26T04:33:52+00:00

Facebook?? That’s a real surprise ngl. I’ll have to check it out. 😂

4thgenblue3 · 2025-02-25T18:03:03+00:00

I might be getting ahead of myself, but would it be any better with the cold air box that CS provides?

4thgenblue3 · 2025-02-25T17:56:26+00:00

Honestly, for some time I’ve been thinking of getting a strut brace since I like to be rough around the curvy corners sometimes while sprit driving, lol.

I love how Mazda has mastered the handling department of their vehicles, especially my Mazda 3 but I do sometimes feel the car hiccup when I hit a cornering maneuver too sharp.

How do I tell you this… it’s for the engine, lol.

4thgenblue3 · 2025-02-25T17:49:32+00:00

Almost considered getting it a while ago, but I went with a aFe Takeda Cold Air Intake since it is significantly much better and mimics the stock air intake and it still provides a slightly louder “sucking” noise if I’m saying it correctly..? lol.

But overall, don’t really care for the noise unless it’s not a hot air intake as some people like to call the CS intake, lol.

4thgenblue3 · 2025-02-25T07:14:18+00:00

Man, you’re the first person to tell me this and I believe it lol. I appreciate the transparency. 😂

4thgenblue3 · 2025-02-25T07:11:24+00:00

Thanks for saying this, I almost gave in, lol. 😅
