Some/all/none have seen my red vmounted turbo track miata. A few have seen my blue/purple one that is getting some "random" motor swap. No one has really seen the new Mazda that followed us home yet, so I figured a mini thread to update.

The white one followed the wife and I home this weekend.

Can see the red one living on jackstands in the back... what can I say... I've been F'ing lazy.


Haven't gotten through a tank of gas so far and having picked it up with 7 miles, no beating on it. So far though it has been great, very nimble, great steering feel, awesome brakes (11.8F/11R), even partial throttle it wants to Zoom Zoom . Basically a great commuter for the wife... with room for baby seats down the road.... and an all weather trunk tray so I can lug motors and **** around.

 

The blue one looks sad that he lost his place in the garage to the white one.

 

Lol, it never got garage space. Well for a day when I pulled the drivetrain. It'll spend LOTs of time once I start on the project destined for it though.

 

I see a hidden gem there in the back

Can't decide how I feel about the 3s, although I'm sure if I poked around one for a bit I'd like it. Congrats on the new car. I think my future holds only mazdas for bit.

 

Is the blue one getting a VQ swap? Congrats on the new 3.

 

I have a dark blue MX-5 and the Mrs has a white Protege, kinda the same!

 

Koto did.

 

I don't know what you are talking about.

 

While the wife was outta town... I started messing with the car

 

Oh cool you're going to use a VQ TB.... how clever

 

Looks really clean.

 

Xmas lights in May...sweet.

 

They are down now... last I checked we don't have as temperate weather as San Fran.... so F off.

 

I really like 3's with the exception of the grill. Why the hell did Mazda think they needed the grill to look like a huge gawping smile? They should have made it look mean, not giddy.

 

+1 on xmas lights still up

 

Not so much F off if you had to make a lame excuse about weather or whatever. Try harder next time.

 

I think I'll put them back up this weekend.

Need to see if I can find some nice multi-color ones to frame more of the house.

 

epic

 

Like totally dude.

Hows that for another useless catch phrase?

I wonder if your 108 other posts are as awe inspiring.
Possibly more so than kenzo with his mods list of nothing installed.

 

Someones a little bitter!
