Congratulations, my man. You deserve to be proud of your build. No matter what you spent. I have a 2013 Race Red Focus ST. Full bolt-ons, stage 3 tune, daily driven (180000KM), and I love my ride to death. Forget about what haters say. And stand by your Hot Hatch til the end of days! Torque Steer Brother 😎
Don't feel bad. All car guys spend to much on modding there cars. It's just a part of the journey. But I dig your speed. I just drove my speed 3for the first time today after the engine swap. Im already looking at further mods lol... It never stops. Cool vid. Don't stop enjoying your ride!!! You deserve it.
“Im already looking at further mods lol…” that part had me laughing bro. I’m getting my speed3 back next week after 3 long months and I’m trying to resist the urge to look at further mods… come Spring though I already know I’m going to lose against the urge and buy some wider rims to gain traction.
@@rodrigosuarez586 it's hard to see your speed 3 just sitting there. Mine sat for 13 months(13 long months). Currently looking at catted downpipes. Just want a better rumble now. I know your going to be excited when you get it back. I was hoping up and down like a kid when it started after the engine swap. Good luck to ya!
@@CBosridesandreviews did you just swap yours or build too? Mines being built so heck yea I can’t wait for my first drive. It went in a beast and coming backing even crazier. 🏎
@@rodrigosuarez586 ohh man that sounds fun. Just a swap on mine. Tuned. I already had a project car(where I want to dump the money) speed died on me, need a 4dr back up car, speed moved up the priority list. But yours def sounds mean.
I rebuild my engine 3½ years ago - Bottom end upgrade to handle 500hp max. I only upgrade the valve seals and springs for the heads + ARP head studs. Stock k04+manifold, resonator+muffler. Deleted the cat con, egr and balance shaft. 300whp/470Nm@18psi on 100 octane pump gas. I do have other parts that I didn't install bcoz I don't feel the need for it yet.
Awesome build. My only change would be getting rid the carbon fiber cold air intake duct to keep things symmetrical and visually pleasing. Instead, I'd use the hood scoop as the air intake since you're using a front mounted intercooler. I'd relocate the air filter to the left side of the firewall. Then split and reroute the channels from the hood scoop to send air to the air filter on the left side, and air to pass over the turbo on the right side to draw heat away. Customize some heat shields and sheet metal with thermal reflectors to isolate the air filter, turbo, and engine to keep a nice air flow from entrance to exit.
I also work my ass off and currently in my final semester of high school and will graduate in December. But well said bro it’s your money and you will spend it how you feel like it💪
Bro you don't need validation from anyone outside of MAYBE your parents and even then, that is arguable. You do what you do to make yourself happy. Keep putting in the energy into your passion(s) and with a little luck, it can, like you said, make you some money.
Life is too short man! You should do what ever makes u happy...As soon as you don't sacrifice or harm anyone with it. Is cool! Live your life as you prefer. 👍
I feel you bro, I'm scared to do this list but that's why I've started making my stuff EGR delete kits, coil pack rotation kits, valve cover heat shields and short shift plates to sell. I've figured if i can make it I'll do it and the mark up on cosmetic mods is ridiculous. I'm done spending that much, in Australia a good dyno tune from a respected tuner your looking at $1000 and about $500-$600 from touch up tunes. Adding man you got some red hot deals your dollar to the aus dollar is pretty much the same so I'm might have you buy about $2k-3k but at the start I bout new stuff early , man if i only new then what i know now I'd saved a ton.
I like my speed 3s looks and versatility way more than my speed 6. But that pesky fwd makes me take out the speed 6 way more often. Wish they made this car in awd 😭
bro i have been meaning to ask you since u are huge mazda 3 fan. My spoiler(wings ) are making a squiking sound when i drive. Do u or anyone have an idea of how i can tighten them or what i can do to stop this noise?
Hey mate I own a mps in Australia and will be upgrading the hpfp soon. Was wondering which one you would recommend. The corksport or autotech? The corksport one seems better on paper but I've read on forums people having issues with them
Make sure whatever you do, you clean and lube them like crazy before installing. I didn’t realize how much lubrication it needed, I installed them and they were sticking and I was worried that I did something wrong. I had to take them out, disassemble, re-lube and re-assemble and now they work great. Just lube them like crazy for real.
What’s your current exhaust set up ? I saw your video on your catted down pipe and your magna flow but I saw now u got the titanium tips what’s the entire setup ?
Owning a 2nd Gen myself, before at 3:10 before you start the list I'm going to guess about $10k-11k CAD. Could be a bit less cause can't remember what all was used but if everything was new it would be over $15k for sure. These aren't civics we're building. Sheesh were in over $1000 before we even start with an AP and HPFP.
Yep gotta love cars,yes cars are money pit who cares about the money if you love your car. your mazdaspeed 3 looks sick though I have 2008 Mazda 3 hatchback got it new .I was looking at a mazdaspeed3 2013 the car is a virgin 103914 kms all stock from a woman in Newmarket Ontario for $14000 getting the car today
Keep in mind the guy spent 4k on nothing that makes more power for him. Hes got a lot of the parts required to make more and some that were not needed in the first place(cx7 injectors?). Better off with a new intake that fixes the #3 cylinder flow problems and a same lenght manifold, then the tune and he coulda run 400whp witbout problems for slightly more $.
Basic economic concept of marginal utility. If every dollar you spend provides you with an amount of enjoyment/quality of life that can’t be outweighed elsewhere it’s worth it to you, and that’s all that matters

Man I feel you on this I'm 9k deep only on suspension and engine mods. Haven't even touched the exterior yet...but...I love every second of it. =}

30% he spent on things not worth doing.

Lowkey was only here for the performances mods
How does Freak tune work??
bro i have been meaning to ask you since u are huge mazda 3 fan. My spoiler(wings ) are making a squiking sound when i drive. Do u or anyone have an idea of how i can tighten them or what i can do to stop this noise?
Ive had this issue too, I’m sure there’s videos online but all wings are just loose lol
How much did the guy that did your interior charge. That's a lot of time and effort taking all that apart especially the headliner.
A very good price lol
Is there a site to cop the Mazda head rest and seat belt cover?
Ebay maybe! I bought it a vendor at a car show i got lucky
How much does the total jump to if you include the purchase of the car?
Double lol
Your should really consider getting a daily for winter.
I cant
Hey mate I own a mps in Australia and will be upgrading the hpfp soon. Was wondering which one you would recommend. The corksport or autotech?
The corksport one seems better on paper but I've read on forums people having issues with them
Same thing tbh

Magnaflow catback cpe catted dp
@@jjms3 yeah I got that part but your blue tips are those just added onto you exhaust like extensions or what ?
@@SuhReelz i got them welded on from a shop not sure where you can get the tips
@@jjms3 okay thank you

Aye man you were spot on! Good guess 😂👌
Did u do most mods yourself?
lol I've spent about the same on mine after the USD conversion. The price we pay for a moneypit hobby haha
Yes indeed
Tbh that ain't a bad price I thought it would be a lot more I would 100% do this for 10k
Yep gotta love cars,yes cars are money pit who cares about the money if you love your car. your mazdaspeed 3 looks sick though I have 2008 Mazda 3 hatchback got it new .I was looking at a mazdaspeed3 2013 the car is a virgin 103914 kms all stock from a woman in Newmarket Ontario for $14000 getting the car today
Ohh your going to love it!
Damn $4k on performance mods to only make 300hp big yikes for me
Keep in mind the guy spent 4k on nothing that makes more power for him. Hes got a lot of the parts required to make more and some that were not needed in the first place(cx7 injectors?). Better off with a new intake that fixes the #3 cylinder flow problems and a same lenght manifold, then the tune and he coulda run 400whp witbout problems for slightly more $.
It doesn’t make sense you only have 300. They come stalk with around 220 wheel and 260hp so how is it with all these mods you only have 300?
Pump gas
how old is this man?
21!
15,000
It’ll get there eventually haha!
I need to buy a new lip I broke mine
Not trying to be an asshole but I’ve been almost up to 20k with my speed 3 and it’s not done yet 😂
Ohhh and I guessed 6k in mods
I wish
4k
