6 more days to go for calder park!

i cant wait...

hope i get 15.5 at least... i've put back 17in and cut off the resonator (hot dog), still need to clean my air filter. its been ages since the last time i cleaned it.

accidently cut my knuckles today while helping mates changing gearbox oil... fark, now i cant move my finger properly...

fuel filler satin door + pivot modified shiftlight

Another rice mods:

Satin stainless fuel door replacement (at least its not sticker )


Pivot 3 stages shitlight


but, i dont like the face of the shift light LED box... so i bought 'matrix' 3 way interior LED light and connect them to the pivot shiftlight module... and cut off the original LED box... so its become like this...

Paint Combo

this pics shows how stiff mazda3 body and chassis is... i only jack up the front left side and the whole back lifted up like crazy....





with photoshop, i made few option of the colour combo pattern...



after i decided which one i want, then i called OZGLOSS for a nice paint job.... so let the painting begins...



here is the finished pic...

semi bucket seats - WRX seat conversion

now... my problem is:
1. i want racing seat, but recaro kill my butt... also expensive... huahuahuahahahaha... im abit tight on interior wise...

2. my current sp23 stock seats are comfy, but it didnt hug at all...

so... i call around wrecker to look for second hand wrx seats... coz pehul27 said thats its comfy but hug very well... its ended up one guy is selling it from brisbane... so i bought it from him


and i make custom mount for it. thx to nelson for the welding....



NB: oh yeah, you might noticed that i've painted the mini boxing gloves to red too...

and i wish i had more money to get this:

GARAGE VARY LIP

here are the test fitting.... the pics on the left bottom corner is photoshopped of how i want it too look like after i paint it





Rear Spoiler + Grill
now that the carbon bonnet is on... the red grill looks funny... so i bought 'garage vary' grill and spoiler.... (ok the spoiler got nothing to do with it... its just my excuse to rice... )

here are the test fit photos

Oil Catch Can

then i decided to rice it up abit... lol...

putting Oil Catch Tank on Non turbo can doesnt really gives any real benefit but also dont give any disadvantage.... ^_^

but i love the look of it and im installing it.... huahahahaha

thanks to Visage for installing it!

AWR rear engine mount upgrade... :)

the next mod is the stiff engine mount! i bought it from AWR - USA.... its help to reduce the hopping while you launch (on FWD)

TEIN SuperStreet Coil Over

finally get to lowered my mazda3... my car was looking like a 4wd SUV for a while...

the suspension that i choose are: TEIN SuperStreet Coilover, with 16 level damping adjustment. was the only coilover available at that time... now plenty other brands around...

i only lowered it 35mm coz i just dont like it too low... i drive my car abit too hard sometimes... dont want to scraped anything underneath. but the tein can go up to 55mm low.... so probably next trackday i'll make it superlow... hehehe....
