I Bought a MazdaSpeed 3 (Here's Why)

[@joelchapple1]

Colton; I've built my entire channel off mazda and mazdaspeed content Also Colton; Fuck mazdaspeed!

[@ColtonRichter]

HAHAHAHA 😂

[@marctreebarc]

We will never get bored of the beautiful sound that came out of that car

[@black_panther527]

Why hate on it

[@5ohh112]

You shouldn't worry much about where it fits to the channel, as long as you enjoy the car the content is gonna be entertaining. Having series about proper maintenance and tips around Mazdaspeed platform is always appreciated and interesting, while you just take care about the car so modding it is not always type of content thats necessary. Just do what you feel its best for the car and for your entertainment

[@ColtonRichter]

Appreciate this! 💙

[@UTubedInNENO]

Congratulations on your third new baby!🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@ColtonRichter]

Cheers! 💙

[@cerius7772]

maybe some cosmetic videos. its got all the performance mods...now just make it look MARVELOUS

[@paulofelicianosaningo7369]

Congratulations on your new purchase. Great car. They are very good rockets!

[@GarrySugabo]

YEAH LEZZGOO! Congrats on the 3rd Speed! 🙌🏼

[@sergiovettese2293]

I have a black 08 speed3 would love to see content on it since theres not too many that have updated or new speed3 content

[@gailliardander]

Good shit I’m glad u stick w this marvelous platform , organize a meet I’ll be there .

[@jessemartin2698]

Do an updated today series of the maintenance, necessary, reccomended, the works. Valves, maybe timing if you’re feeling fruity and it hasn’t been done in a minute, PCV valve maybe injector service

[@ColtonRichter]

VVT was done... thank god 😂

[@nick.mk7]

Found your channel when I was 16, bought a 2009 Mazda 3 and loved it. Went into a 2008.5 speed at 18 and now I'm in a GTI. I think you would love the VW platform!

[@ColtonRichter]

That's about the same path i'm directed on right now, I drive them quite often and are fond of!

[@liverenders]

Definitely a nice colour, I do kinda wanna see the crackle tune atleast once LOL. Nice purchase Colton.

[@ColtonRichter]

I might just have to cave and do it 😂

[@liverenders]

@@ColtonRichter atleast for the giggles! After that idc if we ever see it again🤣 you can keep it in the garage

[@NicoAG_]

Nice purchase Colton, can't wait on the future videos for this.

[@ColtonRichter]

Thanks Nick!

[@RazoE]

I have a black one, but cosmic blue would be my 2nd choice 👌🏼

[@ReubenBibera]

Love it!! Congratulations on the purchase Colton! Even if you did a previous video on the other speed 3, I personally would still watch a video if you did it on any visual mods you may do or any of the tuning. Love the hatch and definitely love that turbo!!! 👍🙂

[@ColtonRichter]

Thanks for the support Reuben!

[@ReubenBibera]

@@ColtonRichter Always!! 👍

[@stormb3948]

I have this exact model, trim and colour cosmic blue. Just bought it a month ago and love it! Although it needs some work :/ I got it for an absolute steal though

[@ColtonRichter]

They all need work, don't worry about it 😞

[@MistaSteel28]

I just got my first mazda speed 3 a month ago and im loving it

[@mondospeedy3089]

I have a 2012, completely stock, has the hood scoop, you need the hood scoop. I have not had any issues with it, 130.000 miles, and I finally did a tune up, replace plugs and all fluids. Just because i believe it was a bit over due.

[@ColtonRichter]

Nice!

[@james.defields]

your videos have helped me sm with my speed

[@daily_pocket_review]

If you think ms3 is an addictive car try a hatchback gr STI. Omg the sounds while driving it are like a drug. Sold mine years ago sadly but I still go back and watch pov videos just to hear it again.

[@ColtonRichter]

pov videos are addicting

[@aimanborhan1323]

hi brother, I'm from malaysia and also a mazda 3 hatchback user, may i know what rim size is this? what size tire? 1:36

[@ColtonRichter]

18 inch, 225 40 18

[@djmills1345]

I really want a speed3 but I can’t find them anywhere for sale

[@mistertom37]

Very nice car. Parts from corksport are very good, but unfortunately a little overpriced. However, a front intercooler would bring more performance. Always have a good trip, get in there 😊

[@Thebasicwhisper]

I just picked up an 08 fbo, forged internals ready for port injection. And a big turbo for 2600, inside needed some tlc 198k on chassis 40k on engine runs great in good shape

[@ColtonRichter]

Sheesh sounds like a good buy!

[@Thebasicwhisper]

@ColtonRichter yeah surprisingly, doing the tear down now to check the vvt and a replacement for the k04 its seals are worn but haven't found any other issues yet!

[@ColtonRichter]

@@Thebasicwhisper Nice, good to hear!

[@2010-b8w]

I'm looking at buying a 2008 mazda 3 mps tomorrow but I'm wondering what I need to be keeping a eye out for

[@ColtonRichter]

There's great guides on this topic on the forums

[@2010-b8w]

@@ColtonRichter could you direct me to it please

[@jasras5003]

Bought a 2009 CWP Speed 3 in 2010. Such an awesome car. Sold it in 2012. Such an underrated and understated sleeper. Kinda wish I sat on it because it had low miles. Knew nothing about modding, but got the SRI intake, rear motor mount replacement, and a Cobb with an OTS map. Never a real tune but there was a noticeable difference. I've had a 4runner since then but seeing this video and hearing all of your mods makes me want to buy another one!

[@ColtonRichter]

The CWP is such an underrated color!

[@jasras5003]

@@ColtonRichter Agreed. I usually dislike white cars, but something about that CWP spoke to me. It classed up the car for sure.

[@hothatchpa]

That sounds really good exhaust wise.

[@rorihowe2757]

lets go my boy

[@Edandrade7]

Love it man

[@ColtonRichter]

Thank you!

[@ColtonRichter]

What do you think about the Speed 3?

[@Alphebetize]

Fuck ya. This made my balls hard.. I loved the speed content fam.

[@nathanschwarz4589]

Love the colour!

[@joelchapple1]

Its an old gen Juan that needs a full race header, motor mounts, s5, cold air intake, focus timing upgrade. There's like 6 months of content lol just make it the race car.

[@tylerneff1990]

We have the same car :)

[@ThyKingdomcomeThywillbedon-k6u]

What’s your exhaust set up? Sounds reallly good.

[@ColtonRichter]

Catless long downpipe + an HKS rip off catback

[@ThyKingdomcomeThywillbedon-k6u]

@@ColtonRichter wow it sounds good , I thought it was CorkSport exhaust

[@OnTheRunMeida]

I thought I saw you driving this lol but I didn’t know if it was yours or if you were just borrowing it 😂👌🏻 but dope man

Haha, you'll see it around ✌

[@ateeqs9586]

Very clean car and very nice color.. I like it.

[@johnnyboyg]

Man you make me wanna get this car and build a automatic one

[@ColtonRichter]

Lol they didn't come auto

[@johnnyboyg]

Um i find some on facebook marketplace and what exhaust do you have

[@brandonj.kinlin5086]

Idk if you'll see this but I need kind of urgent advice and I can't find enough info on the interwebs. There's not alot of good deals near me, I was looking at some oem 2017 Mazda 3 wheels. 18x7. Really wanted them, long story short wasn't worth it. Ended up finding some 2019 ford explorer wheels. Picked them up yesterday. Absofruitly love them and I'm eager to get them on my first gen sedan. My problem is idk what tires I should run. The specs are a little weird but I think it'll work great. 18x7.5 37 offset, so I'm a little worried about the outside sidewall. Currently I'm on 215/55/17s and no rub, no fitment issues. I really like having some sidewall, awful roads in my area, I was thinking about putting on 225/50/18. Not worried about the speedo difference. I've got lowering springs but they're not on the car yet and won't be till I pick up some after market struts so it's awhile out. I've got a line on some cheap tires but if the 50 gives me clearance issues I don't want em and I'll wait and get some fresh 45 or 40s. If you see this or anyone with answers see this, let me know.

[@ColtonRichter]

You won't clear 50's on lowering springs and you'll look like a truck, grab some 40 sidewalls.

[@JeffOfTheMountains]

Late to the party, but I picked my Speed 3 about five weeks ago now. Silver, closing in on 194K miles, definitely needs repairs (duh), but so far it's awesome.

[@ColtonRichter]

Lets go 🔥

[@JeffOfTheMountains]

@@ColtonRichter I haven't yet decided on whether or not I want to keep it stock, or put some upgrades on it and do some street class racing.

[@ColtonRichter]

Subtle upgrades go a long way!

[@JeffOfTheMountains]

@ColtonRichter I'm not planning on going crazy with it. Different rims is probably all I'll do visually. I like my sleepers.

[@infamous3688]

What exhaust system is that or is it custom built?

[@user-ov8bx3bn6v]

just got a 2004 mazda 3, terrible paint but I’m still gon try to fix that baby up

[@mrebollar85]

What you want for those wheels if you still got them

[@ColtonRichter]

Sold

[@trevplays6229]

how good of a deal was it? I’m interested in getting one soon and they all seem over priced as hell 10k+ for 100k+ miles for closer to a 20 year old car just doesn’t sit right with me 😭 and you know they’re all driven hard as hell

[@ColtonRichter]

I mean they are getting rare, it is hard to find ones in good condition but good deals pop up a few times a year ✌🏻

[@bryanmussato9055]

Yo I got a question about the gen 1 Mazdas I have a 2005 and watched one of ur videos talking about the tcm relocation but every time I search something up related to that it’s always 2006 and up do I gotta worry about anything?

[@nathanschwarz4589]

Yeah, I’m pretty sure it’s an issue in all Gen 1 3’s and some Gen 2’s

[@ColtonRichter]

Yes, it affects all years through Gen 1 and 2.

Not sure I want to throw it at this block bahaha

[@stitesstephen]

Welcome back to the MS3 club! I don't think you should feel any pressure to produce Speed3 content if you don't have the urge. There is plenty already out there, so you can just do you. What separates your channel from the rest is the 2.0 sedan content. That content is almost nowhere else. But if you DO feel like sharing more with Speed, then it will certainly be welcome. Your content gets A LOT more creative than the rest of youtube, i.e. headlight mods, swapping out different kinds of wheels, interior mods, etc. There are thousands of standard MS3 bolt-on videos. I'm sure yours will be unique.

[@ColtonRichter]

Appreciate this, cheers! 💙

[@thomasabeyta3352]

Bruh, there’s so much more you can do. Go fmic, upgrade the turbo and go EWG, bigger than stock size intake, ebcs, and you can always go built motor with aux fueling and end up with 500+whp. Plus these cars are so finicky it will always keep you working on it and give you content to film. Idk lol

[@ColtonRichter]

Too high mileage for that stuff lol but I know what you mean

got a 5spd 05 3s and im finna cam this bitch one day with heads and fbo (im like halfway there lol) and install an oil cooling kit for living here in florida. Greatttt fucking daily cars, enough umph to have fun while also enough to remind you its your daily
