Recently came round and decided to go for the KL-ZE MX-3 instead of the RX-7 after wrapping my MX round a tree. Completely totalled and lucky to be alive but just bought another and plan to go all out on this one.
Look forwrd to seeing those new pics - that exhaust's fantastic. Still an absolute inspiration.
-
still waiting for the new show season to start before I put all the bits on, bt also bagged myself a set of 18'' wire rims 8)
They look the absolute nuts!!!!!!!
-
Awesome.
I've been wondering mate, you use this as a daily driver aswell don't ya? If so, d'you get away with not having a front plate or d'you have to pop it on top of the dash?
-
That's a point, I've been wondering for a while whether it's acutally a legal requirement to have a front number plant. Some bikes and quads I've seen only have back ones.
-
yeah use it everyday. I got a very very small one on the front, but dont get any trouble unless im at a cruise or something.
Usually just a £30 on the spot fine…
-
they look well better with no front plate. That exhaust sounds well good, i want a jap style one from the cat back, how much did you pay from power flow?
-
they sponsered me so i got it under half price… :oops:
The whole system should of been about £550 and i paid £200 for it.
Its suprising just how much work was needed to get the silencer to sit where it does, and then get all 4 pipes to actually work as there was no way i was going to have fake ones! lol
Think theres a couple on ebay, but if you were to just buy say a £40 silencer on ebay, and then go to your local exhaust place and ask them to fit it for you they shouldnt have any problems. Originally i had a 4'' zaust, and i welded it on myself.... cost me 40 quid! lol
-
quick vid of my car.
I only have a small amount of footage of my car on my comp, which is why some parts are replayed…
Also the footage is from about November so theres been a few changes since then!!!

hi mate your mx3 is looking sweet a great example of wat a mx3 showcar shud look like. ive been building a show car for last 18 months showing on the fast car stand and exhausts uk this year. ive put sum pics up in project gallery so check it out.
-
cheers fella. Although I sold the car now…
Cant seem to find the pics? Would love to see them as my mate has been doing a lot of shows with his MR2... the blue one with Celica lights...
-
WHAT!! so how much did ou get for the car?? That was the best MX I have seen so far! I am actually getting the same kit as ures and making mine very similar!
-
I sold the car about 6-7 months ago now!
She went to a young lad for his first car… so chances are she'l end up stuffed into some tree... lol
I got the asking price of £3500 so was happy with that :)
And your have to keep us updated. Would be good to see another mx3 take the Uk scene by storm!
-
just seen your not from the Uk, but thats a niiiiice colour!!!!!
-
Yea I am from Toronto Ontario!! My colour is all stock! Very RARE SE canadian model! :twisted:
Also can you tell me what you used for the front bumper grill rods?
-
cool cool.
And the chrome bars are just chrome rails i got from my local DIY store…
I had them laquered before fitment to provide a bit of extra 'toughness', so they lasted a bit longer :)
Although I still changed them, and had the front bumper sprayed yearly as stone chips etc...
-
found where you got the idear for your bumper http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T78tKRt6Ec4
-
James, thats the drift kit…
What mine was originally... until i modified it...
I smothed the top centre gap, smoother the side repeaters and put the chrome bars in...
-
Just seen your car on ebay mate, whats all this about buying a house??!
DONT SELL IT! haha
-
haha he's already sold it, that must be the new owner selling on. Now's your chance to buy it back bruce :P
-
LOL, how much did it fetch last time?
