View Full Version : My new money pit/project..
I had it for about a 2 weeks, and i have almost spent the price of the car on maintenance stuff and small repairs...lol But i love it so far, it rides great.. has plenty of room. i sold the escort to a guy in NH..soo its long gone... :(. i got alot of plans for this, but it needs some love, but for the price i still came out good! The body is straight, has scuffs on the front like they played bumper carts or some shit with it... No rust or hard dents anywhere.. pretty good for a 16 year old car.. :D
Need:
Suspension Work
Paint
Interior Door Panels
Wheels
Tint
Oil Pan Gasket
Front Seals
O2 Sensor
What ive done:
Brakes
CLEAN CLEAN CLEAN!!!!
Window Regulators
Random Sensors replaced
Intake Hose replaced
I think im gonna keep the color silver just darken it up....suggestions appreciated.

If you ever need parts for your 929, just remember that the Millenia and the 929 share alot of suspension and brake parts. And BTW, I still have that JE48 ECU and I also have a couple of JE50 VAF's sitting around so let me know something. Nice find, BTW. When that motor coming out for an RX7 engine and trans?

no i dont.. im almost done
tint and drop..maybe an exhaust..if i can get what i want and im done for awhile.. time to move on.
all the expensive stuff paint/interior/new motor i want is out of reach right now. after that im moving on to the protege. My goal is being one of a kind...and its pretty much that, b/c u wont find a duplicate..

I think a light black tint would look alright. I don't care for either the blue or green but its your car. The PS drop makes it look a whole lot different, in a good way, so you need to hurry up and get that done asap. Haha. Keep up the good work and keep us posted.

:goodjob: BUT ITS SO EASY!!! :D
I have always liked a flashy exhaust. I think it adds character from the rear, But until i can get the exhaust i want, i decided to polish/clean my stock muffler. I wasnt in the mood to take the rear section off, so i couldnt get the whole muffler around the tips 100%, but i got most of it. And i like the way it came out. So i might go ahead and pull it off this weekend, and do the parts i missed... heres the pics.. nothin too crazy.. little things count too!

I like what you've done with the place.
alright i took a few pics of the front and back.. to get suggestions on tire sizes. The height will be about the same.. because as of now its not adjustable.. maybe lower if i can do it.. but all around i got a 2" gap from fender to rim, im not sure how much camber i have left to play with in the rear...
sizes are
20-9 +32
20-10.5 +28

i finally grasps the whole idea of camber bolts..after playing with mine alittle. ILl have to see what i can get out of my oem eccentric bolts, and see if i have to try some aftermarket ones.. to get what i need.
Logan
11-05-2009, 12:13 AM
You are the fucking man, sir.
225/35 would be perfect up front IMO.
I feel sorry for whoever has to mount that 235/35 out back!! It looks like you will need that or a 245/35 tire to make it fit out there though.

Not even just because I want the wheels, I think 20s might be too big for the car. Rear stance is on point, like you said front needs a little work. Maybe with a spacer and more low it will pull off the 20s better. Overall looks great though! I like where your vision is at :goodjob:

i wont lie i agree with you..the 20s are a big wheel... I am gonna go lower in the rear, the front is lower than the rear naturally.
and the wheels are always for sale...:) i have all center caps and fresh tires!
Of course...lol...everything is always for sale :P
PM me how much you would possibly want for the whole setup wheels/tires.
my old license plate shroud was cracked up...and i got another one!

I would not use the mudflaps because they make cars look less aesthetically pleasing...atleast i think so...I took mine off with the quickness

What kind of engine is in that mazda, and how does the car feel with those 20's!? I noticed that when I put these 18's on my car and did the BBK my car felt SOOOO much slower...can't imagine how it would feel with 20's

the car wasnt fast, but it has felt like it has gotten even slower...lol but its fine.. i cruise @ 65-70 max anyway.
And the mudflaps im gonna try on.. just to see.. but they looked nice on the car i pulled them off but you can barely see them on the car... prob dont even notice
like this one.....im prob gonna hold them until i get the car painted, and put them on than..

Does that car you posted have 4WS? I know the 626 and MX-6 had it but I've never seen it on a 929. Or it could just be the angle.

I wouldn't go lower, I would just do front spacers and pull the rear fenders. If you want it "lower" I would get a kit personally, I like the car because it doesn't have ridiculous camber and if I'm not mistaken you will have to add more if you want to drop it.
