Hey guys

Im looking at buying this car, but im not so sure about the kit on it.

What you all think?http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/Cars/Mazda/photos/a-131285955/p-47203118.htm

It looks good from the side, Most angles in fact, it keeps the lines of the car well.

I don't like the front shot so much though, it looks like two little coffee tables sticking out from the gaurds.

:twisted:

hate the wheels

kit looks ok, i prefer those stock looking though

oh, and upgrade the motor to something decent like a 4k

i think you should never put a kit on a series 1 imho. every attempt looks gay

The wide arches look cool but the flat front just doesn't work, especially from the side.

Love the standard shape and is often ruined by add on plastic bits. Factory front end looks great...series 3 bumper was best from memory.

No way.. This kit looks better than most.

The kit and wheels make it look great. Very low which could be an issue with speedbumps and driveways, but otherwise compliments the shape of the car.

I had a corolla with the mighty "tui" engine lol

18.01 1/4.

Rally driving and put a hole in the sump, ran it for 6 months without oil in the engine at all. Funny thing is it started better with no oil than it ever did with oil (i had put in motorup about 4months before the incident lol

My 2E runs better with a minimal amount of oil too.

Actually the car im 95% going to get is this onehttp://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/Cars/Mazda/photos/a-131951203/p-56456050.htm

Kit is better(and removable if need be), i like the colour better, and i have always wanted a screaming ported engine

All going well i will have it for mid january :twisted:

by **d1 mule** » Wed Dec 19, 2007 5:16 pm

that one is about 1000000 times better than the first one, apart from the monster tacho (never understood the point of them)

Yeah, spitfires dont really suit it that much. All good though, got some modgies lined up for it :wink:

I quite like the kit to be honest, but its great that i can remove it if i change my mind. And yeah, the monster tacho will more than likely be coming off :lol:

OMG so shiny! · by **Dell'Orto** » Wed Dec 19, 2007 5:38 pm

That car is yuck....still running a 4 barrel by the looks? Early S1's have shithouse brakes too.

Also why is it that ads for rotaries always attract munters who have no money, can't spell and are generally wastes of genetic material?
