TONS of updates to come in the next few months I just have to actually receive some stuff in the mail and install some things I got for xmas already
![Mr. Green :mrgreen:](./images/smilies/icon_mrgreen.gif)
.
Im still chasing leaks (what else is new) but the KLZE is doing great. I do need a better clutch though. I had a ACT clutch but it was to chaddery and aggressive for a DD that is shared between me AND the mrs. The generic one thats in there now just cant hold the power at all. I dont know if i didnt break it in right but in certian gears its slips more than a bubble boy in a KY jelly factory...
I installed a keyless entry and alarm and it is SOOOOOO cool to just walk up to the car press a button and get in. So 21st century lol. I also have been going through keys like crazy so i was forced to just get keyless entry. The alarm was a bonus. I put the original tail lights on and REALLY like the stock look for some reason lol. The LED altezzas will sit in storage until I might want to put them back on in a few years. I wont be painting the blinker red. I will leave it original. Matches the color of all my other blinker bulbs and im all about uniformity
This is how the car currently sits
I do have bad news though. Ever since this car has been in the states it was been rear ended. Backed into and some a**hat just rammed his door into mine. There is a HUGE dent on the side that is such an eyesore to a body tech its not even funny. The normal person would not notice
![Mr. Green :mrgreen:](./images/smilies/icon_mrgreen.gif)
I mean can anyone have nice stuff in america? I would understand if i was rear ending people and backing into them or slamming my car door into other cars but im not. Ill occasionally tap another car with my door but its nothing that does damaged. When i get this car repainted I might be convicted of murder if someone hits my car. Especially if i put the hard work in the body and paint work myself. and its not like I dont take the precautions to have people steer clear of hitting my shi*. I park as far back as I can all alone in the the walmart/grocery stores. I try to ensure my neighbors have enough space so I park PERFECTLY in the middle of the spot or when I see traffic slowing down MILES ahead of me i slow down. Its silly but I have seen dudes not paying attention and SLAMMING into the back of someone. So I slow down so the Aholes who are in a hurry and on there phones pass me up on the highway. What more can I do? I mean come on. Do i have to put orange cones all around my car every time I park? Its just sad honestly.
Also bought another MS catalog for my collection. I love the cover so much i HAVE to share it here lol

gah your mirror drives me nuts. Re do it with the mazdaspeed logo moved to the lower RH quarter at 1/4 size and I think it would look more OEM and not take up much of your viewing space

lol have you ever cut out a stencil for acid etching? At 1/4 the size it would have took me all week. Plus its actually is not noticeable at all when you focus on the environment behind you also it sits directly in line with the wing in the background that already obscures my vision a bit . It could be worse. I could have a 7 mirror stance "jdm" mirror sticker bombed put up for optimum viewing

Yeah, I am interested to see how those mirrors will look. I have wanted to try it out. I remember seeing them on one JDM mx years ago, but since cannot find the pic. Hurry up and test fit them already
![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)
and I am liking the MAF there.

Ok so just an update on the ODD II MAF conversion. Its not going according as planned....
I plugged everything up but the car ran terribly. I test all the components and they seem to be good but i think my main problem is i have an external coil and HEI. I need to rewire the HEI or something but im waiting to see if ANYONE has ever even done this swap AND has an external coil and HEI. So far no one. All the guys either have bone stock distributors or only have an external coil (KLZE guys)
I will still be figuring out how to mesh this kit with my car but for now it will be put on the back burner. I hooked my KL36 ecu and JE50 VAF back up and put the OBD II stuff in the closet. Right now with school and only having one car i really dont have the time or luxury of experimenting. Plus with my luck ill ruin something or make it worse. Like fry the engine harness wiring or something. This is a nice push in the direction of getting a aftermarket ECU like a stratified or MS or something. As with that i can run a MAF and coilpacks and ditch the Distributor all together. We will see but if a guy comes out the woodwork and says "hey i got a MSD coil and HEI and im running a MAF" than this project will be back on because I then know its possible and would have a little assistance in figuring out my problem.

Hehe, I got one of those Mazda flags a while back (thanks to my contacts at Mazda Canada). I wasn't expecting it to be so big either!

Nice update
Why do you have that Mazdaspeed strutbar just laying there ? It should be on my car if you just store it
