doubt it, i have my major projects course this summer... looking for ideas, right now me and another guy are thinking about designing a very large clock for the school...

TouringTeg 11-20-2005 08:31 PM

nah I have changed wheels every month since I bought the car !

islandsupra 11-20-2005 09:30 PM

I don't know if I'll still have my car this summer, but if I do I will go to Kelowna for sure. I was going to go to the last one but decided not too.

Matt6003 11-20-2005 10:16 PM

I'd go to that, if the car is running

arturiusma7 11-21-2005 06:33 AM

arturiusma7 11-22-2005 08:17 PM

Supra90T 11-23-2005 05:57 AM

Why's everyone so worried about emissions there? haha

Just pay a shop off and run another car in place of it....Probably about 1/4 of the cars on the road here don't have legitimate e-tests...Hell, alot of them don't even have legitimate certifications :p

arturiusma7 11-24-2005 08:48 PM

so whos the one that lives down on mortimer? white 89+ T by the looks of things :)

Paradox 11-24-2005 09:02 PM

82 RX is exempt from emissions.

even if it isnt, they will usually exempt you by looking at the price of replacing all the cats from mazda (i think that is into the thousands).

Enraged 11-24-2005 10:03 PM

But in relevant news, I am going to be doing some powdercoating in the engine bay soon. Most everything is going to be silver and black but I want to do some small parts a different colour for some accents. You guys have any suggestions?
So far the colours I have looked at suck so I am thinking just going something similar to the exterior colour.
This is the best I have come up with:
http://cgi.ebay.com/Rose-Red-pearl-c...QQcmdZViewItem

If you guys have any opinions or suggestion lemme know cause it's going to happen within the next 3 weeks.

EDIT : fixed my spelling (I hope) and some of the dumb crap i said.

What're you going with, a dual MIG? They're sweet...If you're lazy, you just don't use the gas sometimes - Messier welds but meh, big deal :D

The problem with doing anything the same color as the ext. color is it's the same color as your engine bay if I remember from the pic...
So it won't look right, I'd say do a chrome powdercoat on the intake manifolds + valve covers, maybe a couple other things....Then try gunmetal on others
The problem is burgandy is such a blatant color....So it's not like you can put blue in there lol

PS it fucking snowed here!! We have like 10-12cm on the ground, something like 500 accidents on the road yesterday...haha at least its going to be back up to 14 next week but still :(

islandsupra 11-25-2005 08:43 AM

you and your gunmetal.... lol actually I thought about it but i'm not so sure about it yet. I might just stick to black, i dunno.

PS I wish it would snow here!! I was all amped for snowboarding but now we are losing all our snow on the hill.

It was -13C and -22C windchill. You don't wish that would happen there. Nor do I, for when I move there...haha

Enraged 11-25-2005 06:22 PM

this is the one im buyin, pickin it up tomorrow morning: http://www.revscene.net/forums/showt...hreadid=345484

you cant use gunmetal, thats my color! try to find a color that matches the burgandy paint. that stuff on ebay may look nice when its powder, but the color may change a bit once its melted onto a part.

Enraged 11-25-2005 06:27 PM

on another note, the "tailpipe" if you want to call it that, on the sprint, was draggin along the ground, it rusted through the super shitty weld... so i just kicked it until it broke off. the sprint is now louder, and i have a reason to buy a MIG :)
