Update - Got some new parts, still waiting to install some of them.

Got some black altezzas, I think they suit the car and update the back abit more:

I also have a new Cosmo racing lightweight UDP and some JDM front signal lights in which I will be wiring up the DRL to as they have inside lights. Also installed some MTX 5205 thunderdome coaxials in the rear of the car.

Installed my JDM signal lights. Baked them up and swap lenses with my stock housings. They use a 921 bulb for the inside section so I ordered some 921 5 bulb LED's off eBay to make em look abit better. The light is not powerful at all haha, the bulb acctually puts out more light then the LED, but since the LED's are so directional they look bright from this angle, they look killer when i am driving and no mroe ugly yellow light from the headlights when driving now.

Guess I haven't posted in some time. I am in the process of buying a winter beater. Next week (weekend of Nov 2nd) I am parking the MX for the winter and pulling the motor. I have a room in my house that I am storing hte motor on a stand and I am gonna be working on it. I have started ordering some parts already for my little build. So far I have a bunch of random crap:

Rear strut bar
Cosmo UDP
7 nipple disty
SRD battery tie down
Pheno spacers for IM and TB
MX3 Dual gauge pod
6000k HID kit (installed)
Eunos skirts
Authentic Mazdaspeed oil cap
New timing belt and tensioner

Here are some pics of the HID kit:

MTX FTW ahah, my new amp (tc4001):

Here is some of my new crap:

My work area full of stuff like my 7 nipple disty:

My gauge pod and my recently painted pillar:

:(

Need to preplace my tensioner!

I said I would not be using these heads next season. However, plans change, I have no issues with these heads anymore and they are perfect for my application. Motor has over 70k on it now I believe. All I can say is Amsoil FTW.

Hey Jordan looks good. Its always nice tos ee parts piled up awaiting installation. Why do you have a new gauge cluster and also from an RS??

I see in the one pic I can see a flywheel. You know you keep telling me on msn ya wanna make the car quick. ver thought about getting a Fidanza. I know there pricey but there pretty damn nice, if you keep your eyes open they come up used quite often.

So just a small update...

I keep running into money issues and havent done much in the way of improvement of my car. I painted my sideskirts (can you believe it!) and basically now am trying to get some money that ppl we me so I can start doing what I have planned for some time...

That however is a surprise for the spring :P You will ALL have to wait and see. I really want my car to come across as a clean, refreshing and original mx-3 that will make people stop and think about what a nice car mazda has actually made.

Are you just going to swap the ODO over from the RS cluster? Would be easyer id think.

Its the same as the GS cluster. The difference is the kilometers.. I am going to swap over the gauge overlays as well... we will see, its an electronic one not cable.
