project MX3 Turbo.

[Teknomaz]

Hopefully can get this part covered as good and install the armrest on top ok. Alu. plate knocked up today for it to sit on.

Wow this did turn out good

[Teknomaz]

Turns out the dodgy running issue I had was mainly down to one of plugs nearly falling out the AEM, She runs magic now though with new spark plugs, clean MAF, new pipe and new filter.



Insanely happy with how this just turned out, sort of a poor mans flocking...

[Teknomaz]

Cheers, I'm well happy with it! Yeah I don't know why that is.. It Is a bit of a niche Mazda I guess, it's not RWD and I got fake wheels and no tire tuck..lol

I don't mind though, pretty chuffed I got 5 stars

[244Brick]

this is coming out nicely.. I'm surprised that not much traffic has came through this build..

[Teknomaz]

Did have a little bit of sex wee come out when I put these two together, 01>03 Civic gaiter if anyone should be interested.



Started the carpeting...


Got some trim-fix arriving soon to glue this stuff on forever...

[Teknomaz]

Fronts now bolted in, which means sliders can move exposing the rears so brackets being made for them now...







Also in the making: Carpeted center console, black suede with red stitching shift boot & handbrake gaiter with sit on top centre console armrest with cup holders

[Teknomaz]

New seat feet are coming together nicely, got these bolted on today and will be drilling the main holes ready to be fitted then will make a start on the rears. On a side not I'm in talks with a company who refurbish seat belts and can re-webb them to any colour, might go with dark red and get them to put a Celica belt clip on to save me swapping over the seat belt stays.



Also on the agenda for this bank holiday weekend:

MAF clean.
New spark plugs.
Forte fuel treatment.
Ramair foam cone filter (stainless one has gone rusty!)
Replace perished concertina air pipe with aluminium item I was saving for the turbo.
New cat. for the impending MOT.

[Teknomaz]

Not as eager as I am to sit on them and go for a drive round some twisties haha. All the celica feet hacked off now, working on new feet in the week.

New radiator, working fan, OE top hose with filler neck and tucked coolant overflow tank fitted today.
Running well so far, no leaks will empty and top up with anti freeze tomorrow. Need to make some sort
of rad. support too now.

[244Brick]

Looking good.. Really eager to see those seats in there

[Teknomaz]

Ghetto paint and fixed!

[Teknomaz]

Had a bit of a result here! Turns out the 323 spats fit better on the front and look a bit poop underneath the rear spats, so I have my fronts and I don't have to make 'em now




Celica runner feet also been hacked off.

[Teknomaz]

Me too man! Think they will just need to beef them up a bit and sort out some decent mounting points
as I doubt a flimsy bit of L shaped GRP will last five minutes down their.

Hope those front spats work out!
