While on google today I typed in mx3 equipe and there is the original photo of my car when I took a punt on it and bought it, all I had was this photo and I paid a scrap yard £90 for it plus £40 delivery from bognor because the guy wanted someone to restore it instead of crushing it, he had paid £50 for it and even though it didnt run he had a feeling about it and didnt want to destroy it.
The odd thing is I had never met the scrap yard owner, I spotted online for spares and the colour just made me email him and we got chatting, its amazing what has happened in 2.5 years of buying it for sparesDecember 2010

Final part for my new dash arrived today, looks like another job for the weekend if I get time, now have black reverse glow dials, carbon bezel and chrome rings and the 4 button dash from germany

Redline at six and half grand?! Thought that was for 1600 only.
Look pukka though :D

he is not going to push so hard, when going to see the red line closer

the 6.5k redline is appropriate for a ZE 8)

Gave her the first major polish of 2012 so its easy to clean for japfest saturday and got the dashboard apart for the carbon one to be fitted and finally got it all wired upA new set of plugs and all the droplink bars are now sat in the boot awaiting fitting this week
The Mazdaspeed body parts are still in the paint shop, just waiting for a freshly sprayed white yacht to be moved out before painting can commence
Just awaiting the genuine mazdaspeed radiator cap in the post I won on fleabay

Finally getting some action done after moving house and the rally, this week I have all my parts into a sprayshop for a cracking deal on all my parts sprayed and I have also removed the carbon bonnet to have it stripped and relacquered, going to order some new grill mesh for the MS bumper and just got a nice square rear plate for the JDM bumper
More stuff in the pipeline for the next few weeks and will get updating as it happensBASE COAT APPLIED AND FRESH OUT THE OVEN :D

Spray booth - batch 2 / stage 1
-
Everything is sprayed, mopped and ready to fit, the carbon bonnet has been re lacquered and looks amazing with a deep shine now. Will update soon when I get the rest done, at the mo I am a bit busy with work for the next 2 weeks :?
-
I now have everything back from spray shop ready to go so spent an hour dry fitting the new grills that are going on the bumper to match what is under the bonnet and to match some of the other bits n the pipeline
Sorry did have to edit background of our tea hut lol

It'll be interesting to see how that looks on, I think I like it, can't be sure though! Great colour scheme either way. Whats the plan for this so, JDM/Mazdaspeed skirts, spoiler?
And :rofl: at the poster!

It will be jdm skirts, rear bumper, MS spoiler, MS front bumper, Carbon Garnish (if I ever get time to make a new one) all in the Noble Green to Match the car
The Equipe stickers are going to be remade as they are the reason I own this car and they will be replaced with KLZ equipe stickers in exactly the same format but in mint green colour
Most of the engine bay is mint green already and will get some attention and I may get a new set of alloys powder coated green to match and then thats it for outside, not too much green but it goes well with the oem colour anyway and no-one else has done that colourThe fog light switch will now become the green lantern switch and will now run the green headlights already fitted but The grill will glow faintly green at night and the bonnet vent will glow green
Thats as far as I want to go unless I go for a partial vinyl wrap which is still a possibility

Can't say I like the nuke thing bud, looks a little tacky for my tastes.
I do like the items however :)
