Sam's Proper MX-3 - LT Turbo project *Parting out*
-
modify one then make a mold of it and make a huge carbon one :wink:
-
I think if you had a healthy mix between these 2 using a wraparound as a base…
Also I think something like this would be awesome for a nice rounded out effect… (courtesy of Yence in the NL)
Let me know and I can remove these pics from your worklog if you want it clutter free…
-
Would be cool, would try and make it as light as possible to begin with though :wink:
Thats fine Moonegs thanks for posting them up :)

The skirts that I have been looking at photoshopped on > SET GT
Really not sure on them though?
-
personally i would say it looks better stock mate, but if you like them thats all that matters. just expressing my opinion lol
-
as you are good with metal sam, some polished running boards would be better so you dont rip the skirts off when running low :wink:
-
looks perfect
-
Found out those FEED style RX7 sidesteps are the right length but Im seriously doubting the sill fitting is the same. Would be a really expensive exercise to find out for sure!
I think it would awesome to possibly intergrate the mini side skirts into those GT skirts and have some black running boards underneath to match up with the front splitter (version II)

I want to sort something out as I can still see daylight underneath the car and I cant go any lower! It would be crippling as I dont think I would make it out the drive hahaha
-

Hi jamie, welcome along!
Thanks for the comments, feel free to copy anything that you see that you like, or just use them as ideas and put your own spin on things.
That is what forums are all about, look forward to seeing your '3 and what you come up with :)Ok been thinking about the skirts again and it will probably be easier to make up something like this in aluminium if the mini side skirt are to difficult to intergrate
Think im on for these skirts now after another little 'shop session with the wing tips

So this morning I learnt you can't mount the washer jets in the wiper cowl!
they shoot way up to high right up over the roof onto the boot :lol:
Will have to sort out some kind of wiper spray bar now so I can delete the bonnet jets.Took the oppurtunity though to change over the manky clear 4mm ID hose and replaced with the obligatory lime green silicon stuff, also put inline a one way check valve to keep the water at the jets, so theres no lag now from pressing the stalk to actually getting water onto the screen.
-
Didn't the pug 406 have washers built into the wipers ?
-
Yes they did have a spray bar system I believe along with the citreon XM I would expect too, or there are the Aeroflats with 5 built in jets per blade… little pricey though.
Just looked and found 18" & 22" washer jet wiper blades(conventional) for twenty quid a pair from here :http://www.wiperblades4u.co.uk/Car-Specific-FRONT-Washer-Jet-Wiper-Blades/
-
My carbon bonnet doesnt have them so i have had to fit universal jets on a 20mm stalk so they clear the wipers to spray the screen, not ideal but works fine
