This is our new BJ Gloria. We bought her after our previous Bj 1.5 GXI was destroyed in a accident.
Bought for a bargain price and the interior and engine are spot on. This due to the seven year Mazda service history and the previous owner only used it at weekends to take the dog out.

Here she is when we first bought her.

First of all she needed a bloody good wash and we had to remove the smell of Dog from the boot.
My front fogs had water and lime scale in them so I followed NeilF's fog light step by step guide. And this was the end result.

Then I added a few blue pipe covers to neaten it up. And I got a new battery which was also blue.

New front pads and new rear discs and pads. And I have now fitted the Rocspeed induction kit.
Just need to neaten the cables and covers. I relocated the temp sensor behind the filter rather than having it near the MAF.
Next on the list is to polish the engine bay and sort out the manky heat shield.

Mot in few days didnt get time to sort out the crack in my windscreen I might have to give the mot tester a few quid to pass it lol.

Looks great mate, worth the wait in the end

It was worth the wait. Noticed improvement straight away. It picks up loads better and sounds great.

bays getting there. Need that strut bar spraying to match It looks like youve got quite a rust free bay too? Lucky bugger.

Finally fitted the Civic type R wheels. bought for a bargain with only one slight hitch.
The center bore of the wheels is 64.1
The center bore for the BJ sport is 67.1

Solution: Drill + Grinding bit + elbow grease and surprisingly a one of these.

As the top diameter of the can is 67.1mm. So I went hell for leather on the wheels until the can fit in perfect.
Resulting in this

Took it for a ride out and my youngest was impressed. "V-Tech kicked in yo!"

I have not done much recently other than changing the air filter and removing the curve out of the induction kit to make it shorter. I have lost the nice 'Growl' but it picks up loads better and has and nice 'Bwauum' sound now lol.
Took some pics today first time in ages just need to give her a wash as she is filthy.

That would look nicer if you bought and fitted my bits I have for sale

Car has got new droplinks all round. Just put the breather filter back on. The car needs a good wash as we have not had the time recently to give it the attention it needs.
But the car has very little rust and the engine is in good condition so we will have some plans in the near future.
Need to get in here and make it shiny again.
