lol so far its awesome....quickest car Ive owned yet.....the thing sounds amazing.....cant wait till I can do some exhaust work with it...
who makes headers for this car?!...Ive seen people saying they have pacesetters....but I dislike pacesetter haha....any other company? lol
and ya....from what Ive noticed there arent many klze's around here (calgary at least)......a few in probes that I know of...this was the first klze mx3 Ive seen/heard of......so I had to scoop it up....since it was the only quicker car in my price range...lol damn no money!

There is quite abit of kl's in the AB area IIRC, more then BC. Check out eBay for SS-autochrome headers. They are low cost and work decently. If you want high quality get HotShot headers.
That is one thing you will miss about your nissans etc. There is a scare aftermarket for these cars. But you can manage. Here is a clip of my KL with 2.5" exhaust a resonator with headers:

Hope you enjoy your car, but don't bust it up in this weather!!!
I've been driving around for the last week on my winter tires and damn this car is fun to drive in the winter.
What colour of car you got, just so I can keep my eye out and wave if I see ya?
I've got a Red BP with tinted hatch, black tails and an MX-WEST light-up rear brake light. I'm around the city a lot, usually see 2-3 MXes every day.

Did you buy the HIDs from the guy on the beyond forum? He was selling them for $350-400 I think.
