Sam's Proper MX-3 - LT Turbo project *Parting out*
-
Cheers for the heads up Jim, not thought about that fact :roll:
Although I have bought these too to see if they will work with the sleeves.
Will be sure to grease them if they are alu inserts, checked my tyre pressure on the weekend and found them to be all over the show from the fitters, ranging from 20-45.
-
Now with added dice….
Thats how I roll… :wink:
-

Thanks Man! YO to that we be scrapin over big speed humps now :o :lol:
Hers the obligatory " ground clearence" photo:
Bit of good news is that our driveway has now been refurbed so I can get the car back on the hardstanding outside my flat and starting working Her again, with some more lowness on the front, new 4" tailpipe sniper exhaust backbox, a boot hatch delock bung plug which Im going to machine and have painted along with removing and blanking off the rear washer jet and aerial… then it might be ready for some photshoots....
-
So here is my idea for delocking the boot. I punched out some 36mm blanks in 2mm mild steel and concaved it on the rear to fit into the hole
left by the lock, then it will have a nut welded/epoxied onto the back of it it so the blank can be bolted on from inside the boot, its going to be painted red so from a certain distance the boot will appear smooth and saves messing with filler & rattlecans!
-
cant wait to see your finished boot lock conversion!, is my number 1 pet hate on the mx3 that lock, no2 is the big stupid amber side repeaters but thats another convo !. :D

Eunos rear bumper + French front bumper, both have the reflectors on, (with a light holder behind) wire them into the indies, and remove the wing ones.
Legal in the UK as you can still see a indie from any angle and you can have them as running lights as well.
-
Want to get assembled and painted pronto! Guess thats the advantage of a red car, the orange doesnt stick out too much, but I know what you mean Garfy.
-
have been thinking about removing mine. mines already been rattle can'd there anywho so would probably have a go at filling mine. Get away with it more on black though.
-
Do it Jim, it makes the rear look real nice imo especaially if you fill in the recess grab handle part.
-
Ok a little bit more shaping of the blank this morning
then I had a M10 x 40mm allen head bolt welded on.
Luckily found some quick drying enamel paint at work
which turned out to be nigh on a perfect match.
-
Dont think i have commented in here before but have to say I really like what you have done with this! All the best with future modification your going in the right direction anyway
-
wow, lucky on the paint. looks really good in place too.
-
want to knock another one out ?, :D , parden the punn !
