    Because racecar is a memetic phrase in which questions about cars are answered simply “because racecar”. For example, if one asked “Why doesn’t that car ha

    Thanks ChristopherJason, I got the paint code from here : http://www.ralcolor.com/
    so its RAL 4010
    215-045-109 #CF3476
    Telemagenta on the rocker cover, I think it will work even better once the bay is painted white along with the whole car
    Incidentally I have with help from a standard height MX-3 worked out my ride height to be -90mm.

    works been a bit slow recently as its winter time and I have no garage!
    Been mocking up for the skirt shark fin though:

    Finishing off the water bottle for the windscreen:

    and been checking out how to mount down low.

    Had a little bit of spare time yesterday. So I decided to see what the fitment was like on these skirts, better than expected! so minimal prep hopefully...




    Will start work on the wing tips asap and get them off to the painters soon.

    Thanks Man, please do plenty more to come from me

    guess they got overshadowed by the mx-5 a bit and were not a all out cruiser like the mx-6, somewhere inbetween is good though. its crazy how much you can push this motor into and out of the corners... she loves it!

    loving all the little details on this. MX-3's are great cars and such a momentous flop when new; some thing which i just can't figure out.

    keep my eye on this.

    Been raiding the breakers for some goodies to get painted>cam pulley wheels.
    and chrome powder coated>fuel rail+various brackets.


    Picked me up the V6 strut brace also

    changed the green hose for pink as I wasnt happy with the way the green was contasting
    so close to the rocker cover.

    fitted up a Trust duracon shift knob


    Back at work this week, so started on the alu. windscreen washer tank to match the power steering fluid tank. Also looking at welding on a bash guard to the 323
    baffled sump in prep for the turbo and meaning I can drop the ride height some more
    Side skirts on order, but taken forever to arrive!

    So went down the hardware shop this morning to bag some 3mm clear tube for the wiper arms.

    Ran the clear lines down under the arms and into the scuttle panel to T into the main hose and attached the lines with zip ties.


    And they work! really well five jets on each blade spray direct at the screen.


    Plus you dont really notice the pipes under the arms if done in clear hose.


    I would seriously recommend this mod. if you want delete the bonnet jets or your fitting a carbon bonnet etc..

    whilst waiting for the wipers to arrive I changed up alot of spaghetti junction
    for the same 4mm ID hose that I used for the washer jets... lucky that!


    Also chnged out the green translucent top hose as it wasnt translucent anymore,
    went too soft for my liking under heat and had split under the
    hose clamp. Topped up with antifeeze also.
