SOLD MY ECLIPSE FINALLY! AND BOUGHT THIS.

ALL RIGHT THIS IS MY NEW CAR. 1996 MAZDA MX-6. ITS GOT THE 2.5 V6....

 hopefully this car will look completely different when im done with it. that'll probly be a long time though because im only 15 and in high school.

-other than that its ok. but i dont know if it was worth the 800.

-right after we brought it home we learned it needed a new radiator.

-bought one.

-also the back left brake was dragging and the E brake didnt work.

 

-after we fixed all that and got a new radiator it was time for a stereo.

-pioneer head unit from best buy

-schoche amp wiring kit

-1000w Sony Xplod amp

-1200w Sony Xplod 12" woofer

-2000w Alpine Type-R 15" woofer

-i'll probly get another amp so i dont have to split the first one.

 

im gonna do a raised floor in the trunk, on both sides, but the middle will be normal height. the raised parts will also serve as the sub boxes. the lower part in the middle will be that diamond plate metal stuff and the sub boxes parts will be dark red shag. the amps will be mounted about an inch above the metal with red neons under them.

 

 

PLANS: (not in order)

-get damage fixed (number one priority!)

-paint. dark red.

-MAYBE bodykit. not sure yet.

-windows pitch black. illegal but i dont care.

-shave spoiler. maybe.

-rims. i wanted "T.I. 5" but they dont fit. maybe TSW thruxtons. 18"

-$4000 sound system. not for a looooong time.

-tv/ps2 in trunk.

-headrest tv's.

-visor tv's.

-replace all carpet w/ dark red shag.

-paint interior black/red.

-racing seats.

-turbo.

-cold air (soon).

-new complete exhaust.

-paint valve cover? red.

-streetglow lighting all over. inside and out.

-headlights & tail lights. foglights too.

Thanks for the comment man! Best wishs on your ride too. I have a place looking at the engine cover now. Going gloss black with silver accents. Ordering a Mussa replacement emblem to get rid of the Hyundai one that will match everything else. Unless I polished the Valve covers I think it needs to stay on. One thing, if you are thinking about a body kit at all, please do that before paint so you can get it painted and installed at the same time. It will save you so much headache later and look so much better cause the paint will be an exact match. 5* though buddy. Keep us posted.
