Hi
-
Can't believe how strict you Aussies are over there with your cars! Nuts man!
-
Yeah, I know it can be a pain, in NSW we have to get them done every year but, down South in Victoria you only need it done if your selling your car.
Update Strut arrived today I only ended up getting the passenger side one and ordered some super low springs, should arrive Monday/Tuesday hopefully. I will be fitting them after the retest on the 30X :P
-
Update….. She passed and is now registered and insured, lowered springs 35mm and soon to arrive, new distributor, the correct one for my car as it apparently has the 626 one in it so, the ecu is searching for the cam sensor and takes a long time to start. apparently I have the TOT57271 and need the TOT57171, also it has the usual crack in it so definitely need to fix that. Loving this car, even with the problems it has had, it is still enjoyable to drive.

nother' update with pics…
I bought some new 205/40/17 tires had them fitted, lowered her around 40mm (Kings Springs) through a member on our Barina club (Corsa) new tailights and wing mirrors, they adjust electrically but, I need to hook up the repeaters, hopefully this week-end. Re-spray and dings removed shortly, just deciding on a colour!? I was thinking that I should leave her the original Noble Green?? Still need to replace the distributor with the TOT57171 cause' the 10 second start up is starting to get annoying :roll:
new speedo cluster as the old one was scratched and hard to see through…
I'll be removing the wing repeaters and welding up and filling the hole, over here we have to have a visible side repeater so, the mirrors solve that problem.
More to come, the engine swap soon!
-
Yeah, we have to have side reps over here too (sucks). I'm not a big fan of the mirrors, I prefer the Gandor mirrors (but they don't do them for the MX3 :( ).
Wheels look good 8)

Looking good, the noble green looks great, if you want to respray it sell me the spoiler first 8)

lol, there is a wrecking yard that I have been getting some parts from through my work, they have three sitting there at the moment, is it the wrap around hatch spoiler your after? Might be able to work something out for you, I'm after a set of clear lenses for my front bar indicators. I can't find them anywhere over here.
I wasn't to keen on the wing mirrors at first either but, they are slowly growing on me, the mirrors and the tailights arrived within three days from the US so was pretty impressed with that!
I am thinking about getting 205/45/17's as I think the tire is a little low looking if you know what I mean? I think the 45 will fill the guards a little better.

Heya, if you want clear lens indictaors, buy a pair from the UK as they have orange inserts for the bulb but essentially fuly clear then to make them fully clear you can do that yourself, you will see that the front lens is clipped on, gently remove that and you will see the yellow unit is a peice of plastic thats stuck inside, just break that out and replace the lens cover. Clear lenses done !!!
Ask on the wanted section or next time im at the breakers I will get you a price
I am definately after a wraparound spoiler, I would hate to think how much the postage would be. Noble green I am defianetly after but if you have a breakers near you with different colours then find out how much to send as many as you can get plus some eunos and 30x badges plus I am sure we will find some other parts to chuck in the parcel that you cannot get here
