My KLoffee Table Project
For those who aren't on my Facebook, since I've been home on vacation, decided to do my long waiting KL Coffee Table with the KLZE that I kept from my Mx-3. Facebook album for public viewing here:

Too cool. I love it. Just don't stub your toe on it in the dark.
We all want to be fast and look cool. Cool changes but fast never does.

85lbs of aluminum would definitely hurt. I've already broken my baby toe on a couch leg.AaronTietje wrote:Too cool. I love it. Just don't stub your toe on it in the dark.

Re: My KLoffee Table Project
Moving companies suck!
I'll have to get it patched and touched up, but it still does look great!

Re: My KLoffee Table Project
That is really neat, nice color combo too, but those ZE pistons could have been put to use, shoulda used DE ones!

Re: My KLoffee Table Project
Maybe, but as part as is it making a KL coffee table, the other part is keeping the legacy alive and immortalizing my Mx-3. That block, those pistons and I have have a great 100'000kms of good times and stories together. I can look at that motor and it'll put a smile on my face, that it's more than just a painted and assembled chunk of aluminum. That motor changed my life for the better...SuperK wrote:those ZE pistons could have been put to use, shoulda used DE ones!

Re: My KLoffee Table Project
Lok, you being the douche, or me?
And get your own ZE pistons
Looking at it, I think it definitely needs lights....I just got the idea of using a hollowed out oil filter to hold the batteries, maybe get a genuine Mazda oil filter too. I just wish I didn't throw out the filter mount section....
