Keep in mind I am doing a low budget system. I have exactly $200 in the whole thing. I already had some amps/subs/wiring so all I bought new is speakers to install in the rear deck, front doors and an inexpensive double din head unit. I am sure it will be good enough for what I'm wanting to do w/it. Also, I wanted a project to work on in the garage over XMAS/NEW YEARS vacation. http://i1039.photobucket.com/albums/a473/KD93R1PB/Mazda%203%20Stereo%20Project%20Winter%202010%202011/DSC00080.jpg http://i1039.photobucket.com/albums/a473/KD93R1PB/Mazda%203%20Stereo%20Project%20Winter%202010%202011/DSC00082.jpg http://i1039.photobucket.com/albums/a473/KD93R1PB/Mazda%203%20Stereo%20Project%20Winter%202010%202011/DSC00092.jpg http://i1039.photobucket.com/albums/a473/KD93R1PB/Mazda%203%20Stereo%20Project%20Winter%202010%202011/DSC00087.jpg http://i1039.photobucket.com/albums/a473/KD93R1PB/Mazda%203%20Stereo%20Project%20Winter%202010%202011/DSC00093.jpg http://i1039.photobucket.com/albums/a473/KD93R1PB/Mazda%203%20Stereo%20Project%20Winter%202010%202011/DSC00088.jpg http://i1039.photobucket.com/albums/a473/KD93R1PB/Mazda%203%20Stereo%20Project%20Winter%202010%202011/DSC00090.jpg http://i1039.photobucket.com/albums/a473/KD93R1PB/Mazda%203%20Stereo%20Project%20Winter%202010%202011/DSC00091.jpg http://i1039.photobucket.com/albums/a473/KD93R1PB/Mazda%203%20Stereo%20Project%20Winter%202010%202011/DSC00085.jpg http://i1039.photobucket.com/albums/a473/KD93R1PB/Mazda%203%20Stereo%20Project%20Winter%202010%202011/DSC00094.jpg

That is super clean. Sweet trunk dude.

And, my rear deck is bad ass.

Santa just brought me a Sparkomatic Autoreverse Cassette Deck (w/dolby), a KRACO EQ Booster...Oh yeah, and a Polk 4th band subwoofer box w/4 6x9's inside. Man, my system is gonna be sweet.

Well the intention was to start a stereo project thread like my Rotary Project thread I did a little while back. Just started and the thought was to have before and after pics. However, after acturally looking at the pics 2x in a row just now I am thinkin about changin the name to My daily driver stereo upgrade & playin w/my new camera project. Hows that...

Removed rear interior seats/trim complete to begin mounting speakers which are to go in rear deck which has now holes from factory. http://i1039.photobucket.com/albums/a473/KD93R1PB/Mazda%203%20Stereo%20Project%20Winter%202010%202011/DSC00079.jpg http://i1039.photobucket.com/albums/a473/KD93R1PB/Mazda%203%20Stereo%20Project%20Winter%202010%202011/DSC00078.jpg http://i1039.photobucket.com/albums/a473/KD93R1PB/Mazda%203%20Stereo%20Project%20Winter%202010%202011/DSC00077.jpg http://i1039.photobucket.com/albums/a473/KD93R1PB/Mazda%203%20Stereo%20Project%20Winter%202010%202011/DSC00076.jpg http://i1039.photobucket.com/albums/a473/KD93R1PB/Mazda%203%20Stereo%20Project%20Winter%202010%202011/DSC00075.jpg http://i1039.photobucket.com/albums/a473/KD93R1PB/Mazda%203%20Stereo%20Project%20Winter%202010%202011/DSC00074.jpg http://i1039.photobucket.com/albums/a473/KD93R1PB/Mazda%203%20Stereo%20Project%20Winter%202010%202011/DSC00073.jpg http://i1039.photobucket.com/albums/a473/KD93R1PB/Mazda%203%20Stereo%20Project%20Winter%202010%202011/DSC00072.jpg http://i1039.photobucket.com/albums/a473/KD93R1PB/Mazda%203%20Stereo%20Project%20Winter%202010%202011/DSC00071.jpg http://i1039.photobucket.com/albums/a473/KD93R1PB/Mazda%203%20Stereo%20Project%20Winter%202010%202011/DSC00070.jpg

I did this build last winter. Port/RA seals, fuel system, and GT35R. I was hesitant to go single turbo for years. I just got to where my twins had brought me to my limit so I did er up and never looked back. Car is night and day from where it was, I'm sure you know what I mean. Nice to hear from you.

I think I'll move that sensor this weekend. I thought the gm 3 bar was ok. I need a datalogit. I have Zavier from the RX7 Store do all my datalogit stuff. Are you planning to go to any events or anything next spring/summer? We oughta all hook up somewhere one night, or maybe you guys already do? How much boost do you usually run? Are you using any AUX INJ at all?

My buddy Paul mentioned something about that show in some other country, must be UK as mentioned above. He said it was worth watchin, pretty cool. I'll give it a shot too.

I am running a new GM 3-bar, do you have another idea on that? Never thought about relocating the ATS but that just sounds right w/o me even thinking about it. So what causes the heatsink, just the fact that its mounted to a large pc. that can soak up some heat? Would it effect the PFC at all? Doesnt the PFC need to know what the air temp going in the LIM is or am I not understanding. Something I need to learn more about as well as laptop tuning and dyno tuning. I dont have much experience at all w/those platforms but I am at that point no doubt. Which do you recommend for that AIS elbow or pipe? Or is it just a matter of mounting? I just got back from a little ride and my air temp was 19c. according to my PFC. Third, the vac line coming from the intercooler pipe to boost solenoid. The vac line coming off the y there runs to the actuator side of my wastegate. Is this wrong? I am gonna get rid of the y there and add a second nipple on the intercooler pipe this week. Just dont like those t's and y's ya know. I think its awesome to get to talk to someone different who knows whats up. I know alot but by no means do I know it all. Suggestions welcome.

Hopin next weekend is decent enough to cruise. We should all hookup. Send me your email or something dude. I bet Mojoe would be down and I know Paul would be.

New camera too http://i1039.photobucket.com/albums/a473/KD93R1PB/003-3.jpg http://i1039.photobucket.com/albums/a473/KD93R1PB/001-6.jpg http://i1039.photobucket.com/albums/a473/KD93R1PB/006-6.jpg http://i1039.photobucket.com/albums/a473/KD93R1PB/002-9.jpg

Yeah I know they are not being uitilzed, but you know, the only thing that looks worse than the way I have it is to have it uncapped. I need to remove them dingis nips for good. I think this winter, while the car is down I'll shit can those and some others once and for all. Then I'll take some weight off it too (on the inside). You have some experience w/the rotary I assume???? I appreciate the feedback.

I know about the cris-crossing. I have dyno printouts and mine are not the only ones I've ever seen. I guess I worded that wrong. What I was getting at was how rotaries can be built different (like anything else) especially when it comes to porting. You know like high-high rpm horsepower vrs. low rpm torque. Thats all I meant. I like the feedback though.

With a 1.3L engine w/o pistons it tends ta make a fella sensitive.

Torque can come from all sorts of ways. Some comes easier (and cheaper) than others. With a rotary, I believe the secret is how its built/ported etc.. I think my car has plenty of torque as do the few who have rode in it, but opinions vary. In fact my car delivers more torque to the rear wheels than horsepower until around 5200rpm. I built mine to run how I wanted it to for how I drive it, not for dyno contests or torque comparisons. I like the feedback though.

I will very soon. Every time I go to get one I buy car parts instead, but I'm gonna get one. This one doesnt even belong to me. I'd like one that will take some decent videos too. This one will only take video for 30 seconds. I was hoping to find someting for around $150? $200max? Any suggestions?
