Sam's Proper MX-3 - LT Turbo project *Parting out*
-
my misses would go mental if i made all those marks on the wall and left a dirty manifold on a nice cream carpet!! :D
looking good tho. 8)
I would re consider engine mounts. They do make alot of difference, but then depends on how much power your looking for really.
Ive got the v6 corksport mazdaspeed ones and think they are pukka. Tommy d how used to be on here ( mx3 been broken into parts now ) didnt replace engine mounts and tore through two sets of driveshafts and started to wear out gearbox also. Im sure the old engine mounts didnt help with the engine thrusting, having a negative effect on other components.

still brand new carpet but it was an offcut from the bedroom so it doenst matter if i fuck it up… wich i have done :D

OK just a quick teaser for you all of these impreza rear bumper spats on an mx3!
The contour is perfect, just need some more trimming and possibly plastic

-
looks well mate
-
Just put my order in folks for some xyz coilovers :D :D
-
looks good, I do like rim tape, will look even better when your coilovers are on, slam that cars ass down low!!
-
Definetley coilovers for the big win, Famine and myself have spent all day struggling with lowering springs and the effect is not yet noticeable, coilovers will be instant and I think easier than changing springs. Just watch those blots as they are a right pain in the arse (snapped one and rounded one off) and the rears are also a pain to re-align too!
