Its gone in the bin! its only an overflow for coolant so the pipe is just hangin down ( thanks to Rob on here :) )
The cold air is done with a second hand civic intake which was cut up and piping from a AE111 Levin. Its a little rough but should do the job as I can bring it in further for those wet days :)
Love the work done on the Gulf :)
Any other ideas I can do to her? picking up set of sparco sets and harness at the weekend.Il be running oem front and back discs and yellow stuff on the front and oem on the back
might have sourced a new exedy clutch kit for cheapo (brand new) would it be worth the fit?
-
Thanks :D
If you have sourced one cheap, then its definately worth buying, if your current clutch is fine though, personally I would stick with that, if you want to change it then do it! Big job though! One other cheap mod you could do is relocate the battery to the rear of the car.
Keep your eyes pealed on this site, should have some pics and videos of my track day at brands coming up soon
-
i can get it for about 100 euro or so? might pick it up if i can get it cheaper :)
-
ok im thinking of picking up the exedy clutch kit tonight, getting in very cheap, is it worth getting? what the advantage of having it?
-
Is it a sports clutch or standard?? Think mechanic had a exedy clutch on his (then :( ) ZE MX3, maybe he could tell you benefits of one, I am only running a standard clutch on my ZE :shock: But She drives good :D
-
the code is mzk2014 for the exedy clutch, I cant find anywhere if it is just oem or aftermarket?
-
Tried looking for you too mate, I found the irish advert with your name in! LOL Had a look on ebay.com (american site) they have mx3 exedy clutches on there but the trouble is the part numbers will be different to european, so again no joy there :( Does the seller not know whether it is OEM or not then????
-
not going ahead with the exedy clutch as the one for sale is for 1.6
-
The exedys are OEM as far I know. You can use the mx6/probe/xedos9 clutch though as it has an extra 10mm or so of material, so it's kind of an upgrade. They tend to hold a ZE ok. Unsprung ACT disc (same as RX7 fc 1.3 NA) with stock pressure plate is very popular. It's been holding boosted mxs over 300WHP!
-
Did a clutch on a KLDE probe this morning. It had a nippon clutch in it, when i order a blueprint one it was a nippon boxed up.
-
dont get ya mechanic? did get the clutch, check with Exedy and its for a 1.6 :(
got these though

I was just saying in response to Marco that i changed one in a V6 probe yesterday and it was fitted with a nippon clutch, pretty sure it hadn't had one before. :?
Wasn't disputing that the one you were looking at wasn't for a 1.6 lol
-
Ah right, was not sure what ya meant?
I think the straight through is gonna be too loud, ideas how I can quiten it down?
Got these the other day in the post - cheers so ROC here
-
Whiped out the exhaust and put this in, need to do a little bending though to get it to sit right. I got a shiney can off RoxX1r so that will be eventully goin on to tidy it up and quiten it a little
Short vid sound clip
Home made cold air, does the job and can quicly pull it back up into the bay via a jublie
Started to fit my yellow stuff and ended up goin a little mad
Then the body work started
Over the past few days I have done a few little jobs like cleaning the inside, fitting fire extinguisher and getting the buckets in. I plan to spray on Wednesday weather permitting
I am always on the look for new parts so if you think you may have something give me a shout. We be KLZE'd during the summer
If ya have anything to add please do
-
been a few months since I updated this
Basically just painted her up and fitted my buckets and harness and bleeded the brakes and done bit more work on the s/s exhaust. Also picked up a cheap trailer to pull her on
I am on the look out for a quick shifter and will probably do a engine transplant over the summer if I can find an engine for the right price.
-
Nice 8)
-
took her out last Friday, was a glourous day
was massive learning curve for me, handling was great and the engine ran well but was having major problems but think they are gearbox related
Will be putting a seperate thread up for ideas
