I do like that oil cooler, might need to do the same :)
-
There was once a vinyl wrapped car I saw somewhere that had a louis vuitton logo all over it. And I can't help but see it everytime I see your grill.
I've tried to look past it but can't lol.
-
Excuse my stupidity, but why an oil cooler for the steering?
-
They all have them, the oil must get hot at the back of the bay
-
Never heard of an oil cooler for power steering before, so mines got one?
-
All have them gulf. Best thing is to get a small mocal cooler in its place if it's close to rust through.
-
ok thanks, learn something every day!
-
OMFG
Just got the car back after almost making me £500 lighter in the pockets :shock:
The stainless headers are done, the EGR valve no longer exists in my world and I can still put the cat on for MOT time :cheers:
Just took her for a spin with her non working power steering its just amazing now and she has really unleashed the beast, loads more acceleration, no lag and the revs tick over just right now so loads of minor problems sorted in one hit
I wont even try to explain how good it sounds now too :bigok: :bigok: :bigok:
-
your running out of things to do slowly !. The manifolds are a great addition!. Shame they dont stay shiny for long :(
Be good to get a mx3 dyno day arranged for late 2012 if everyones up for one.
-
Im not running out that quick lol, I have a full rebush on the list yet and a heap of interior work to do yet but that one is a biggy out the way
-
What parts are you gonna use for a re bush ?
Probestrore updates or just Mazda oems?
-
Is that the MX6 SS ehaust manifold you picked up off Ebay bud?
Might do the same while the engine is out to save time later, what do you think?
-
I may have a look at probestore ones but if costs go to high then probably oem and get a rear strut in there
Lori they were the cheapies from ebay but I have had them reshaped a little, rewelded and the welded joints sharpened inside for better flow, 10hours of work in those to make them perfect as the guys from RAW worked some race magic on them, you cant see the rear joint thats been removed and raised so it has plenty of clearance from the steering rack plus I no longer have the EGR valve drawing hot air into the inlet manifold
Probably worth more than the frigging car now :imout:
-
More goodies fitted with more to come soon :mrgreen:
Instead of just ftting MS spoiler I had a full JDM tailgate painted and found that when I plugged the lights back in the high level brake light works perfectly with no extra wiring
rear bumper is next to go JDM so those stickers will be gone ( like the tailgate lock ) and just left with my japanese mazda badge on the rear, I am also having the join line on the bumper filled so it will be flat all the way down
-
Where did you get the ebil looking Mazda Badge? and that does look a sweet ride..
-
hahaha my secret with the badge, I have a matt black one for the bonnet too :bigok:
Shes getting there, bit more work yet :bigok:
-
Just looking sick as F*** there mate, well done. :respect:
-
Lookin' good man, good work. Not a fan of the oversized modified mazda badge, it is different looking tho!
-
Jayom, the badge will look better once the JDM rear bumper is on and theres no stickers on the back
Today got another great delivery, this MX has been spoilt the past 2 months and now have to sell some junk to pay for holiday next month but its gonna be worth it soon, Next job after this lot is arches rolled and some green deep dishes to match the rest :mrgreen:
-
Oh yeah 8) That will look serious with the right stance now. Loving the green dishu idea.
