My project has moved on another stage today 8)
A nice delivery man handed over 4 Rota SDX alloys to me this moring, complete with lightweight wheel nuts and a set of locking nuts :D
They look bronze in the photos (prob due to the low sun) - they are gunmetal in colour though. They're also extremely lightweight 8)
Next step on the project is a new exhaust :wink:
-
those look nice but have you thought about lowering it?
-

Thanks.
One step at a time :wink: Lowering will happen in the near future, but exhaust is next on the list because the current one has just about had it :lol:
-
Looking good :D Lowering will set them off nicely ;) What weight are they?
-
Thank you. I know it needs lowering it looks like a 4*4 at the moment. The weight of each wheel is 6.9kg and i all so have lightweight nuts and locking wheel nuts. They are meant to be 1 of the lightest 17" wheels you can buy and the price was good, and yeah they make a big difference to the look of the car.
Im very happy with them :D
-
wow that's light! My konigs 'lightweight's are 9.5kg. Again good choice :)
-
Yeah they are very light and you notice the difference. Carnt wait to get the exhaust fixed now. Got my indiglow dials and dial rings today so they will be on this weekend. Im after an airfilter as well can anyone reccomend a good one prefrable blue to keep with my theme :D
-
Another stage in the project…
My new backbox has arrived 8) , ready to be fitted on Monday along with a new Powerflow system. The current standard system has pretty much had it now.
-
its very shiny 8)
-
Yep it sure is shiny. Carn't wait to get it fitted on Monday. I will get a sound clip and some pics hopefully.
I'm just waiting on my air filter, front and rear strut braces & rear smoked lights.
I'm all so getting new front and back bumpers tomorrow, front bumper has the splitter :D which i wanted.
Just need a dam passenger side headlight as mine is dead.
-

yeah same question… haven't seen those smoked altezzas on an mx-3 yet! looks fantastic!
-
Yeah they are of ebay from the US. Only took 4 days to get here the quality of them is fantastic, i would even sya the fitment and quality are better than the standardlights. They took 5 minutes to fit, and completely alter the back of the car. Looks like a mini supra. Just remember to get silver vision indicator bulbs if anybody gets these loghts.
Well im starting to make my own front bumper today so will keep you posted on that as well.
Thanx for all the comments :D
-
I've been out and grabbed a few more photos today, and also got another video of my new exhuast in action 8)
After my errors fitting indiglow dials first time around, I was more successful this time - I might even write a how-to guide as I managed it so easily this time :wink:
