The Rizla theme does seem to fit rather well...  |

The cut is a bit ghetto but it does the job. Another thing that needs tidying!

I was actually thinking of getting a Yoshimura backbox as thought it would look quite cool with a bike can, plus that silencer does NOTHING! Will have to decide on the livery, unsure at this point...

The Mazda has a new home! It looks pretty bleak but it's way better than getting battered on the street and should hopefully help it dry out some! Plus for £12 a week from the council, it's a bargain. Also, it may end up as a spray booth. Not that the council will find out...  |

Some further progress made in between the snow and generally crap weather!  The Mazda settled into it's new home.  Then it came out for some work, the snow then fell and it went back indoors  A lot of this happened... I then decided that the passenger footwell was not a good place for the Megasquirt to live since it gets pretty soggy down there. Thought that since the glovebox doesn't really stay closed anyways, I'd rip it out which gives the ECU a perfect hiding spot!  Thought it was pretty good and would just take a sheet of ali or ABS or something to hide it away properly.  More work commenced, it was so close to starting so we pulled the plugs and they were blaaaaaaaaaack as you like. Cleaned em up, popped em back in and bosh! We have a MS powered Turbo Mazda! Gotta say, I couldn't have done it without all round guru Tom Lister. His help has been absolutely priceless! Come Good Friday we're gonna do a remote tuning session and get a proper map on it since at the moment it's got a super-safe, super-rich, super-high-idling basemap. Cannot wait! It's fast already!  This also happened  |

Look how much happier it is! Next up is fat, sticky tyres, a horn and an MOT! Oh, and gauges... So close to track time but sadly don't think I'm going to make Spring Action  |

Boom. Love heart reacts only.
Long time coming mate, glad you stuck with it, I was just going to troll all of your for sale posts if you carried on trying to sell it.

Cheers man! You know how it is, it doesn’t work so you get sick of it and you with the idea of flogging it. I’ve had a lot of help from the Internet as well as mates I’m glad it’s nearly there. Still so much money to be spent haha

Yeah man, been there a couple of times with mine, wanting to get something else. Always shake that feeling off though eventually, just one of those things.
They always need more money but you've got the base, just a bit at a time and it'll be top in no time. Interested in Japfest Silverstone? First time for me this year, camping too.
