k-dub represent :P

Where in dt kit did you take those? off king somewhere?

Nice Pics!

Great list of mods, I like the blue calipers...I am still deciding on what color I could/should do mine...but i got lots of time to decide... 19" wheels....holy shit man, you gonna try and have the same size wheel as a wheel loader or something :P

For your blue interior lighting...Have you thought about getting the blue LED kit off ebay to add extra light?

[3GFX]

The pictures were off king, somewhere around the TD but a street or two over.

I have thought about adding LEDs in the foot wells, and I&#039;ve given thought to underglows. They should be on my list I guess. As for the 19s, I&#039;m unsure I might go 18, it all depends on the style and offset, I&#039;m not looking to roll the fenders.

Thanks for the comments :D

Wow I was actually just taking a shot in the dark by saying king street. lol. Ride looks good though

UPDATE: Jan 04/07

Well winter is here, so the bike got some fuel stabilizer and the car got some new snow shoes.

http://img164.imageshack.us/img164/9027/img2983fp4.jpg (http://imageshack.us)

http://img111.imageshack.us/img111/3852/img2980or2.jpg (http://imageshack.us)

The suede is also gone on the dash. The clips were getting in the way and made some akward spots if you looked up close. I painted the strip a 'universal' metallic black. Its not as flashy or original, but everyone who's seen the suede seems to like this better, its cleaner. Meh, all the same, as long as its not stock right?

http://img111.imageshack.us/img111/1082/img2989qv6.jpg (http://imageshack.us)

[3GFX]

Well, I went and picked up some stuff, only problem is they ain't goin on anytime soon. Weather needs to get better back home, and I need to sell my stock rims first.

Notice the custom exhaust? You gotta come just to hear it, louder than your vibrant! ( and from only 200cc ;) )

[bubba1983]

pfft ill have to ride it!!

[3GFX]

TEASE!!


Just a little....the real tease is the fact that I've got them, but can't put them on yet :complain

[phidubble0]

nice ride...looks quasi-familiar ;).
Mind if I ask what kind of paint you used to do the lines on the engine cover?
Thanks!

Thanks!

The lines on the cover are just regular pinstripes. I plan on actually doing some work to the cover this year, paint is on the way.

[3GFX]

Well, I'm super excited...the rims are waiting taunting me everyday. I've got a set of General Exclaim UHPs on order from SSG. Props to him on a good deal. Anyway, once those come in I'm gonna slap the new shoes on the car. Problem is that the long term forecast shows both snow for Toronto and even more for Kitchener (my hometown). So hopefully by the time I slap em on, the snow will be gone.

I'm super duper excited and I can't wait.

Another pic....

http://img127.imageshack.us/img127/2855/dsc01605yv6.jpg (http://imageshack.us)

[cwp_sedan]

Can't wait to see them on the car...preferably without the bag on them :chuckle

[3GFX]

April 17, 2007

Well I threw on my new rims!!! I'm gonna try and take some better pics soon, but you get the idea.

I'm super happy with the look, I know I'm slightly SUVish at the moment, but I can't quite get springs yet because the front rim offset and track is a little large, but I'll look into it.

Thanks for looking!

Cool rims. I like! What brand are they? +1 on needing a drop.

[3GFX]

The rims are 18" x 7.5" Advanti/TFT Racing T429
C30 Volvo replica wheels, with a few additions.

They sit on General Exclaim UHP 225/40/R18 92W.

I'll eventually be looking into a small drop, but I have to investigate my offset a little more.

EDIT: Almost forgot!!!

SHOUTOUTS:

Thanks to Megawheelz (www.megawheelz.com (http://www.megawheelz.com/)) for the rims.

Thanks to Simon at Rowetech, very helpful and professional (and I got to see the "Acurabot" up close)

Thanks to Supershyguy (Peter) at "NextMod" for the tires, I love em.

http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j106/nextmod/SFCustomer2.jpg

His car is one of the sweetest sedans Ive ever seen.

KUDOS!!!!

[bubba1983]

stay in the boonies and rid yourself of those fugly tails!

[3GFX]

Hostile much? :p

These tails are sticking around, and in only 1 month I'll be back in T.O.!!!

[bubba1983]

haha any TOP tuesday for you tomorrow?

[Kevin@nextmod]

that car needs to be slammed.....

[3GFX]

I know I know, I need springs. I've done lots of research, and I'm still up in the air. I've talked to a guy with the same setup on M3F and he's running S-Techs. I regret not picking up those cheap pairs a while ago. In the end I'm probably (80% sure) gonna go with Pro-Kits. It won't be until next summer though. This year's car budget is gone :p

Bubba, I am going to try to make it tonight. Are you gonna be there?

[bubba1983]

hahah, not in this weather, plus i contacted mikey on msn last night, he didn't seem too prompt about havin a TOP tuesday...

[3GFX]

Maybe next week :)

[klaas_mazda3_sedan]

Verry nice car, and i like your rims!!!
and black looks :bana2

[3GFX]

Thank you klaas.

UPDATE: Sept 15, 2007

Downtown Kitchener. Just foolin, taking some pics. Unfortunately I got out after sunset so a lot of my pictures turned out very dark. I'm still happy with the results, my camera being an old point and shoot. I got lucky with the shadow of the 3 against my car, it was the last shot before my first set of batteries ran dead and I changed location. When I get a chance to clean up the rest of the pics, I'll post them. Till then, hope you like.

[1flycdnM3]

hahahaha I love how you wrote that "3" your ride looks SICK!!!

Glad I got to see it at MOTM this year. Those rims are HAWT.

[bubba1983]

manulife parking lot i seee

[3GFX]

Nice pics, you're still not lowered?

No :blush not yet. I've decided to go with pro-kits, but I'm waiting for the spring. With only the fall left, I've maybe got 2 months to enjoy the springs. Essentially I'd be lowering the car for winter, which wouldn't be so hot. But come spring/summer I'm droppin.

I'm still looking for used Pro-Kits if anyone has a decent set.


hahahaha I love how you wrote that "3" your ride looks SICK!!!

Glad I got to see it at MOTM this year. Those rims are HAWT.

Thanks man. Since the last pics I blacked out the reflectors, and I think it really made the rear of the car cleaner. All I need now is a smoked 3rd brake and my bum will be set. :chuckle


manulife parking lot i seee

Actually TD Canada Trust. Never thought they had that much marble in Kitchener, lol. (There's no marble in these pics though :p)

It was funny, I had to parallel park into the entrance of the garage you see in the first pic. Good thing no one had to come out!

[bubba1983]

hahaha
i jus noticed the bih lang building in teh background....can be seen from both parkign lots

[3GFX]

pffft, just because you have cateracts on your cars eyes :p

[bubba1983]

stigmatism ftw!!!

[3GFX]

I'm excited because I finally ordered HIDs 6000K here I come.

At the same time I'm sad because the car is now in winter mode.

Either way, I thought I'd share my current wallpaper...

[active3s]

:hawt
But I rather the black-out lights for my black 3...

[Tokyo Drift]

in winter mode, what do you do?
do you uninstall something?

[3GFX]

yea the nice wheels :p

Essentially the winters are one now (steelies 16") and I'm going to get the car oilsprayed this week. Thats essentially it I guess :p

[Tokic_o]

nice pic! car looks great

[Kevin@nextmod]

you'll be ok running with that SUV this winter.....:) j/k......

[bubba1983]

nice floodlghts

[ZeroChalk]

i always loved black mz3's.

[b3GS]

love the last shot.. but if I were you.. I would lose the blue pinstriping on the front bumper... and the blue calipers... paint them black

[blk_muzda]

Looks really good. What did you use to black out your reflectors?

[3GFX]

Black reflective tape. It still reflects white so its still a reflector.

Got the stuff at Canadian Tire.

The third brake light is smoked with Tint Paint.

[blk_muzda]

Black reflective tape. It still reflects white so its still a reflector.

Got the stuff at Canadian Tire.

The third brake light is smoked with Tint Paint.

So you swop out your red reflectors with clear/white ones, then smoked them with the tape? What's the tape called?

Also does the tint paint come off. Thinking about doing this but want to make sure i can reverse things back to stock when i sell the car.

[3GFX]

No swap. Just put the tape over stock reflectors. I don't remember what it was called. Look in the pinstripe/tint/vinyl section.

[Nextmod]

so clean

[3GFX]

I thought I'd throw in a few more pics...this was just before the car got ready for winter.

Thanks, I'm really happy with them its a shame they're off for winter. I just can't wait to get springs and maybe they really will look like 19s :p

[Tokyo Drift]

pics are real clean and great!
are those taken before your winter mode? :)

[3GFX]

Of course...end of october actually.

[1flycdnM3]

lookin' sweet Dave! Those rims are worht every penny!

I just went in to get my tires here in town and had a nice long chat with the sales guy and he found some TFT Gunmetal rims in the back that i just LOVED and gave me a nice quote too. Still think yours are nicer, but TFT makes some real nice wheels.

... gotta go to CT and find that reflective tape now :)

[3GFX]

That sounds sweet man, PM me a pic I wanna see them man!!!

[1flycdnM3]

I would if I could find them *lol*

the salesman wrote the number on his card for me for reference, but not sure where to find them online. they are gunmetal # 414 (whatever that means) hahahaha. next time i go in to rotate my tires I will see if i can take a pic of them. they also had one of your rims on display and I will get a pic of that too :)

[Tokyo Drift]

[3GFX]

what section did you find it in? I looked where all the pinstriping was

There are actually 2 kinds. One is called "blackout tape" and it is in the automotive section right by the parts/service counter and the other is called "SafeTape" which is the black reflective tape I found near the audio section at the end of the row. This was in the Appleby Line store.

[b3GS]

awesome! thanks man.. now I know what to look for!

[blk_muzda]

can you put the SafeTape over the 3rd taillight?

[3GFX]

No, it doesn't let any light through. Your only option for the 3rd tail is to replace it, tint it with external tint, or easiest and cheapest tint paint.

[blk_muzda]

Hey where did you get tint paint? Thanks

[3GFX]

I picked it up in Pacific mall, at Autosports if I'm not mistaken.

[1flycdnM3]

I will chime in again on this one. Marco gets credit for this though. The tint is called "VHT Nite-Shade" and can be purchased at Performance Improvements (they usually have 3-4 cans lying around). I have done alot of research on this and it is probably your best bet if you aren't near Pac Mall like Dave said :)

[1flycdnM3]

I am hesitant to put this SafeTape on though, Dave. It looks more "blue" than "white" as a reflective tape. Also looks VERY bright in the pic on the package. Not sure if you got the exact same stuff, but any insight?? I guess i just dont want it to attract too much attention away from the tail lights (im sure you dont either) :)

[mEtH]

I prefer the Tamiya Model Paint, it coats a lot better I find. Also does not come out with a flat look like night shades.

It reflects bright white, trust me. It reflects better than any other reflector for the car, so if you don't want that you won't want to use the SafeTape. BUT that is what I used.

This is a pic with the flash on, showing the reflection:

[Tokic_o]

Hmmm I might go and look for some SafeTape myself. looking good

[3GFX]

I know I've been a little absent from the board over the holidays but that doesn't mean I still didn't manage to take some pics ;)

There was a real nice frost on boxing day morning so I snuck out and got some pics, notice the frost on the trees, it looked spectacular, not many times you can really say the country is better than the city, but this is one of those times. The last pic is right on our driveway! Definitly a cool site to see when you wake up in the morning!

Nice rims

[Thunder 3]

Amazing pics!!! Although personally I think the country is always better than the city! ;)

[mprus]

NICE PICTURES and PRESENTED. VERY NICLEY DONE. HANDS DOWN !!!!

[sudz]

what rim width is that? 7, 7.5 or 8 inch?

Reason being is i'm looking at some 5zigen rims (proracer 520) and i want the deeper look... i can only get it with the 8inch wide rim. I'm wondering what i can get away with with stock suspension.

[3GFX]

Thx mprus!

Sudz, those are 7.5" with 45 offset. Look into the wheels section of the board there is a lot of info on what will fit and not fit.

[RallyPlaya]

Man Absolutely Gorgeous I Really Like the Tails & The Rims.& You Are Really Good @ Taking Nice Pics. Once My Mods Are Installed We Should Take Some Shots of Our Black 3 Side By Side... Once it gets Warmer Are U Located in the GTA?

[mleblond]

Yeah the rims are SICK!!! well the whole car is SICK! perfect rims for the 3 sedan...not sure what they would look like on a hatch? Maybe not as good...

[3GFX]

Thanks guys! I'm always up for taking pics. I go to school in the GTA so we can always meet up for pictures :)

[3GFX]

Went to the Airport. Happy with the location, not with the weather or the shots. Oh and did I mention $8 for parking!!! But it was worth it to hear to exhaust echo in the garage.

Hahahaha, Yea man, that civic is jokes!

Honestly though, your ride is nice. Thumbs up bro!

[x_o_k_x]

Nice pics! How did you get them done so professionally??

[3GFX]

Thanks but I ain't no professional ;)

Just a hobby of shooting cars. :D

[mogul_pro]

I was looking @ those tail lights for a long time, seeing your pics convinced me to get them!

Car looks good!

[3GFX]

Hehe, I'm a fan. Thanks.

One suggestion, make sure you order the signal lights asap because the one's that are stock cannot be re-used because they are clear and not amber.

[mogul_pro]

One suggestion, make sure you order the signal lights asap because the one's that are stock cannot be re-used because they are clear and not amber.

What do you mean? When you order the tail lights isn't it as simple as taking the old ones off and putting the complete new units in....

[3GFX]

Yes.....but some models don't have amber/yellow signal bulbs. So when you put them in the new housing they flash white which is illegal.

[mogul_pro]

AHHHHH ... NOW we are on the same page... will have to make sure i find 1 with yellow signals already inside.... didnt know the TAILS had to be ambr... hmmm

[sauga_kid]

Its funny because I had this exact same problem when I picked mine up too, I signalled as shortly as possible to avoid any hassles until I got my amber bulbs but the more I looked around the more I saw vehicles with stock red and even white turn signals?!? But yes, do get the amber ones before the tails come in.

[sudz]

Quick question on the tint paint - Say you screw up and its too dark.... or blotchy or something like that... What are your options? How do you remove it?

3GFX, Your rims look very similar to the 5Zigen Proracer 520's i'm dying for! Love gunmetal on dark cars :-) (errr sorry... black) (repsecting BoD)

[3GFX]

lol they're not gun metal or black. They're black chome, little different.

Essentially if you screw up with the tint paint you're screwed. Its paint. I tested it out layer by layer after I painted to see if it was blotchy and still transparent. Its trial and error, light coats following directions.

Other options included buying a new lens or a smoked replacement lens.

[sudz]

Wow, Thanks for that bit of knowledge. Knowing that, I think i'll try some tint stickers from e-bay first.

[3GFX]

I wouldn't do that either, it may peel off.

The best investment would be a smoked LED version.

[sudz]

Oh, I have those already, i was talking about the tail lights housing themselves.

I'm going to call around, because i REALLY want the LED lights from the GT, Know any wreckers?

UPDATE: APRIL 8, 2008

Springs, brake rotors, pads and fluid.

[cwp_sedan]

Are the springs on!!?? If they are we need better pics than that! :chuckle



EDIT: Sweet pics though...lol. :)

[3GFX]

I took before and after shots....unfortunatly they didn't turn out at all. I'm going to take some nicer pics when I get the rims on again. Can't wait to see if they'll fit, its always been my concern if I would lower.

I'm really happy with the pads. The HPS bite incredibly well, initial impressions are just awesome! The rotors...I'm having some issues I'll comment after I break them in.

The springs are awesome, I love them. The ride is nowhere near as harsh as I thought, but the performance is so much better in terms of lean and dive. I love it.

[Xerox]

Is this your first time replacing pads (& rotors)?
How many KM's did you have on your old pads?
Were the pads pretty much gone?

I'm gonna need to replace mine soon.

[3GFX]

The right rear pad was far gone....its now at 79,000KM to replace everything. The rotors were still in decent shape as well as the front pads. The rear pads were in the zone of replacement time starting at around 78,000KM.

[Xerox]

Ok. Thanks. I'm pretty much on par with yours. I noticed my rear pads were pretty much gone when I switch to all-seasons. I'm at around 84,000km (5spd manual).

[RallyPlaya]

Nice Drop Man ... Now its Time to Throw the rims on =)

Oh we all know I can't wait!!!!

To go on:

Sweet Man i bet you love the drop feels really different doesn't it...and where and how much were the eyelids thats one of my future plans

[3GFX]

Picked em up off methodyst....I believe they're accolade.

[Mafty]

did you install the springs yourself?

btw car looks awsome.

[Hum]

lookin good! what kind of rotors are those?

[3GFX]

did you install the springs yourself?

No, brakes, exhuast and springs were done by Jimmy at Street Performance.


lookin good! what kind of rotors are those?

Magnum rotors. Coated and Cross Drilled.

[bubba1983]

now to change your driving style with teh drop.....

ive started to change my driving style in preparation for my new drop this year, hahaha

[3GFX]

Already taking everything at an angle, keeping more focus on the road in front as well. Gotta say the winters are defintly scrubbin a little, I'm lovin the reduction in lean. Its awesome!

[FLIPDADY]

You finally dropped that 4x4 Dave!

Can't wait to see your ride with the summer shoes on.

[bubba1983]

u mean....in the 'dee.....

[3GFX]

Well the project is just about done. Just some preventitive maintenance to do (paint and new windshield). I'll still be throwing on eyelids, some lamin-x on the fogs and bringing back the blue trim on the bottom grill. I was driving on the 407 the other day just cruisin with the windows down. I thought to myself, its done. I've got my dream first car.

These pictures were taken last night, the car isn't even clean but I had to take advantage of the location. I just didn't realize my ISO was so high!

Complete huh? We'll see about that. It never ends!

Pics look good. Is the filter causing some flares?

[3GFX]

No filter, and I had pics with much worse flare, so I'm wondering how that happened. Some of them were so bad it almost looked as though I was zooming while taking the shot.

[Pimpin_29y]

Sweet looking pics...I am still at point and shoot mode. Interior shoots look great! So damn clean...uh whats with the brick you have for a shifter?

Great point. I wanna hit some of the initial areas I took pictures in and set up for the same pic and see the progress. :)

[oni]

Did you add any blue leds somewhere to your interior or is that from the camera flash?

[3GFX]

All the interior lights are LED. The map lights are blue wide angle single LEDs the dome is a festoon bulb of 9 Blue LEDs and the trunk light is 6 white LEDs.

[bubba1983]

looks pretty redneck to me LOL

[Shotta-KB]

Very impressive setup...I have a 2007 phantom blue Mz 3 GT w/ Luxury package and was thinking the same idea for my calipers when I change my rims...damn it you stole the BLUE idea...LoL still looks good man!

[3GFX]

Thanks :) Although blue/blue is different from my black/blue theme :p


Just an update. I just installed an in-dash DVD player. I love it!!! Pictures soon. The metra kit needed some modifaction to fit the unit (non-touchscreen) but I made it fit nice and snug :)

The new output was enough to pound the cover off my sub box :)

[mEtH]

I demand new pics! Come on lets see the eyelids and stuff already... ITS JUNE!

[3GFX]

lol. Eyelids still aren't on! I have to refinish the headlights still and repaint the calipers.

[bubba1983]

he's being a lazy ass

[3GFX]

This behind is busy!!!!

I'll get around to it. I'm debating to repaint the front end but I think I'm just gonna leave it. On go the eyelids soon.

[bubba1983]

i mean, no headlight refinish?

[3GFX]

Of course I'm gonna refinish...and by "I'm gonna" I mean "you're gonna" :p

[bubba1983]

lol gonna be liek mark, and take forever? LMFAO

[3GFX]

Finally got around to lifting some pix off the hard drive. Some are retaken in a similar location, did a little bit of HDR work, I'm not the happiest with the result but it will have to do. Pictures will eventually come of the new head unit.

Alright so I finally got some pics going of the new deck. 6.5" DVD/VCD/MP3/MPEG Player. 4 x 45W. Aux in, TV in, Dual AUX out. DVD/SD/USB/CD.

I'm incredibly happy, not only does it fit well and look good, the output is so much better than before. Not only on the stock speakers but the sub as well. The same level of base is achieved with less volume and less gain (gain less by about 6!!!). I've upgraded from the Audiolink and 1GB card to an in deck SD 2GB card holding lots of songs and vids.

Although I've lost the steering wheel controls, I'm getting used to the remote which now that I've learned the controls is just as easy. The blue buttons are a nice contrast to the red and fit my blue/black/red theme well. I miss my reverse polarized display on the stock deck, but only because that took a lot of work.

The hardest part was getting it to fit flush, I had to grind away a decent amount off the dash kit to fit the unit but I'm happy with the result and you can't tell at all because all the removed plastic is out of view. I also had to install a support to hold up the deck as to make the kit fit flush with the rest of the dash, but yet again I'm happy with the result and the way I made it, it will reduce vibration through the deck as well. Now....to stop spending money....

[bubba1983]

you can roll with the big boys now dave! but first....drop the slush box and snatch a stick...then ull have all my respect!!

I really like the look of the first picture.
The only thing I don't like about these kind of mod is the massive amount of empty space around the screen especially with that type of plastic. That's just me though.

lol, the second shot is actually a single image HDR (again)....I'm trying to fiddle around with it, but nothing is done paintbrush wise to the actual picture.

The plastic does match the centre dash plastic of the upper dash, so it looks like it continues from the top of the dash to just above the HVAC controls. It matches really well and looks oem.

Lost out on DIVX, BTooth and Nav. Price was obviously an object, mind you I can add Nav through an auxilary input.

Slushbox to Stick is a little more expensive, and we all know I'd love to have a stick but thems the breaks.

It a lot of space at first, but in the cabin its not that bad. Passenger's focus on the screen and mention that it looks clean and OEM style, not to much lost space. But there definitly is a lot of space.

One thing I thought would bother me is the extra cubby where the OEM display was. But its not that bad, it fit the remote perfectly (where I usually keep it, not beside the stick).

[bubba1983]

and we all know I'd love to have a stick but thems the breaks.




hahah, thank you for admitting to that one1!!!

[3GFX]

Alright, so I accomplished nothing the entire long weekend except for possibly finding a couple of shots for the portfolio. The first one is just some perspective, nothing special. The second is an HDR. It may not be to some tastes but I like it. There is plenty of detail in the photo while almost looking like a painting. It objectifies the car. I like it. May I add, its not an effect, HDR is a technique!

I'm running 225/40/18 tire wise. The rims are 18x7.5 45ET (45mm offset).

Now that I'm on the pro-kits I rub at full steering lock, and also over large bumps. Only in the front though.
