Stop driving into stuff! Calgary drivers must have taken a bad turn since I moved away.

yah I'll try, no promises though haha. That KLZE just wants to go fast!
I was unfortunately denied from the Uni of Birmingham Mike, continuing at U of C here in Calgary until next year when I'll try again, so I'll be keeping the 3

Here are the pics I promised earlier:

interior looks good. did you use that krylon fusion paint? you did a way better job on your headliner then i did and you also did a much better job on the trunk floor then i did. how easy is it to get to the spare tire with the single piece?

thanks man, I used that "Duplicolor Vinyl & Fabric" paint. It's awesome, I think all together I spent like $60 on re-doing the interior and maybe like 2.5 hours in total. And lets just say the trunk floor is for looks not functionality but seriously, that gastly chunk you can see that I've taken out of the driver's side of the floor was done so that it can be taken out with relative ease.

how was the coverage with the blue? i used the glossy black and 1 can was bearly enough to do the door panel and my drivers seat.

well with the black, I bought 2 cans, and covered the roof and floor mats. Then with the blue, I bought 1 can initially, which covered the door panels with a tiny bit left, and then I bought another can and used what was left of both to do my sun visors, sunroof lining, roof handle, and dome light. It doesn't seem like much now that I think back haha. Maybe I did more?

EDIT: nope, didn't do anything else.

Alrighty, soooo...
A couple days ago I painted the dash vents that same navy blue, and today I used the other half of that piece of 5/8" ply wood from my trunk floor to make my trunk lid. It's just covered over in black vinyl at the moment, however, tomorrow I'm going to cut out the old mazda flame emblem (Like Nd4SpdSe) and cover it in blue vinyl which will go on top. Pics to come.

EDIT: did the trunk cover piece like I said, however since I am recieving the Eunos emblems from Lori shortly, I did the Eunos emblem... eee! it looks siiiick

Nice work, Its looking good.

more piczoars!

sorry i haven't been there to help you with any of this, i just have a lot going on and i keep relocating to edmonton

nice eunos symbol. are you gonna try and inset it into the plywood or just leave it ontop like that?

I think I'm just going to leave it the way it is, he says 2 weeks later

So just some updates and sh+t:

- Evo_Spec came over and did the LED dome and trunk light conversion, very cool
- I installed the projectors sent by cthb533, cheers!
- I am now waiting for my altezzas, coilovers, and clear bumper lights to install

pics to come.

Update 1.1

I recieved the Altezzas, dropzone coilover kit, JE50 MAF, and clear bumper lights from nightridergsr a couple days ago. MAF and bumper lights were installed today, altezzas installed yesterday. Altezzas make a HUGE difference IMO, also a note on the MAF, I noticed that I already had a JE50; however, it felt really weird in terms of performance so when I put in the new one I immediately felt the difference, very cool
coilovers will be installed shortly, I just need to go and get a spring compressor from auto value's "rent-a-part" or whatever it is.

side note** I may be keeping her if I can get my waterpump repaired by a mechanic relatively cheaply, I would definitely do it myself but I remember what it was like and I really don't want to get into that mess again with my skill level lol. I fixed the ps pump problem and she really looks good with all the new exterior pieces OH btw, to end my long a$$ ramblings, I picked up some sealant stuff a mechanic said I needed to hold the bolts onto the waterpump, so that should do the trick with that one.

what struts are you planning to put those coilovers on?
that's gonna be a rough ride either way, hope it goes well, i also need to rent a spring compressor to finish my ZX2's w/ H&R's, their all painted up and the rear's are even put together, they look beautiful.

post up pictures!
