Good stuff!

nice

[jaimie08mazda3]

Thank you all. The last few months I've had more money to spend on it and it has been completely worth it to me.

[jaimie08mazda3]

Here is the trunk setup
Two 12" Clarions with an 800W monoblock amp.

[jaimie08mazda3]

Soo its been since July or June since I've updated this. Well I did a few things to the car. Mainly audio but a couple of exterior mods. Here we go:
open mouth grille and Eyelids
painted the OEM GS rims and got a set of Firestone Winterforce snow tires. Fantastic in the snow. Makes me sad in parking lots lol.
still got the 2 12" Clarions just now in a professionally built box.


1500W JBL 7500 GT1. Purchased them both for 150. Sweet deal in my opinion


So one of my favourite parts of Christmas is the day after... Boxing day and I spent some money. Picked up a set of Clarion 6x8s for the fronts and put the Alpine Type S in the rear. Then I bought the Alpine CDE 141 to compliment my stereo. I love it. That deck compared to my JVC is night and day. Sounds clear, so many different settings and having the USB is great. Next up this week is tints and getting the Eibach Pro Kits installed.

[FD22]

Nice!

How'd you go this long without tints and a drop?! haha those should definitely compliment the car well

[Thrizzl3]

car still looks the same...lol even from back in the post whoring days of 2009 haha

[jaimie08mazda3]

Ummm about 6 and a half years lol. Spent my money stupidly when I was younger and finally am getting there and so now the mods are coming and coming. And lol thanks Phil. You know that's not true. Its a WIP but its coming along. I want to do more and keep it going as long as I can. Maybe one day turn it into a project car.

Good to see some audiophiles on these boards!

I have to admit - even I'm dropping off the grid when it comes to car audio

[Dave_The_BMXER]

What did you line your trunk with?

[jaimie08mazda3]

Yea I've been into car audio since I first bought my car really. Started off with a 10" Rockford Fosgate with a 550 2 channel Rockford Fosgate amp. And it just progressed from there. Gone through a dozen different setups at least and I keep working at it to make it sound the way I want it to. And I'm getting there but not where I wanna be yet lol. And I used rubberized rocker guarding. A guy at work used this for his entire truck (08 Ranger ext cab) and told me how greatly it would improve the sound. And how right he was. Now I used about 5 cans of it and I have decided in the summer to use another 5 to reduce the trunk rattle as much as possible.

[Dave_The_BMXER]

Though so, planning on doing it myself. Looks good!

[jaimie08mazda3]

Do it man. Even to buy 10 cans (half the time they are 2 for 1 at CT) is a hell of a lot cheaper then dynomat. Only downside is that it smells your car up for a few weeks but if you can brave through that you'll be glad you did it.

[jaimie08mazda3]

Well some updates. So on Friday I picked up a set of window visors and some DRLs from @Nextmod (thanks John!) And then went down to Mississauga and got myself a lip and a Ractive SRI. Then decided to re tint the tails and plastidip the badges. Unfortunately the lip won't work for my car so now its time to be on the prowl to find an 04-06 GT front bumper side skirts and rear bumper. But till then here's what I got done.





Can't wait till I finally put the springs in and get the 17"s painted and ready for the spring!

[Mazdy]

Horsewhip delete

[jaimie08mazda3]

One thing at a time.

[Nextmod]

[jaimie08mazda3]

Dropped on Raceland coilovers and got the stubby antenna done. Also relocated the plate (zip tied JDM yo haha). Looking great now!
