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.

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

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).

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

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

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

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.

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
