BA - Mazda Menace - Project GT!

**Posted:** Mon Nov 23, 2009 9:14 pm

Hey all,

Since I've been hanging around on these Forums for quite a while I figured I'd make a Topic of my own, introducing myself and showing my car(s).

Well, I'm Bart, I am currently 20 years young and I live in Holland.
As an addicted member of the 323F Club Holland I couldn't resist to see what the UK has made out of it's Mazda 323F's.

Time to show mine.. At the moment I am in the posession of a Mazda 323F BG '90, and a Mazda 323F BA '97.

[b]The BG:[/b]

Bought it exactly a year ago. At that time it was 100% original.
I started customizing the car to my own personal taste and changed a few things...

Here's what it looks like now:

Here are some specs:

[b]Exterior:[/b]
[i]- Bright Headlights;
- Custom Carmate Fronbumper;
- Custom rearlights;
- 15" Wolfrace Tokio Cities;
- M3 Mirrors with side-pinkers.[/i]

[b]Interior:[/b]
[i]- Sportwheel;
- Sprayed interior parts (silver/red);
- Chrome gearknob;
- In Car Neon.[/i]

[b]Engine:[/b]
[i]- Pipercross Airfilter;
- Sebring exhaust.[/i]

[b]I.C.E:[/b]
[i]- 7" BEMi LCD DvD player;
- Sony Xplod Subwoofer;
- Amplifier;
- Sony Xplod Speakers.[/i]

That about wraps up the BG...

[b]The BA:[/b]

Recently bought, also in original state. BIG plans with this awesome car. Here's how she looks now:

I'll post the specs list later on, as at this very moment, I have my frontbumper/sideskirts/mudguards/spoiler at the painters..

Once I got them back sprayed and on the car, I'll post more pics and the specs ofcourse!

One more photo of both the F's:

lovely examples

keep up the good work

Well, after a few weeks have passed, finally an update!

As written above, the bodykit was at the painters. It's done now, and most of it is on the car now, except for the sideskirts.

Pictures:

Next update will be the sideskirts, which will be done soon.

Then I'll start saving up for a new rearbumper that matches the spoiler.

That's it for now.

Nice nice!
Keep up the good work

Holland is full of modded Fs! I'd say that's the nicest BG I've seen!

**Posted:** Thu Jan 07, 2010 12:35 pm

Very nice, particularly the BG , i like that alot !

**Posted:** Thu Jan 07, 2010 2:21 pm

I'm loving the front bumper on the BG :thumbright:

Just need some skirts to go with it now

**Posted:** Thu Jan 07, 2010 4:21 pm

Infact this would be the first time I've seen a BA and BG together and the BG's been my favourite!

**Posted:** Thu Jan 07, 2010 5:07 pm

Very nice indeed, love the white front bumper, very agressive looking!

**Posted:** Mon May 24, 2010 8:32 pm

Been a while since I've posted something here, while a lot has happened in the past few months!

The BG is sold to another member of the Mazda 323F Club Holland, and I've changed a lot of things on the white BA.

Plus I took over the function as chairman of the Mazda 323F Club Holland.

Here are soms pictures on which you can see how my BA looks now.

Changed the rear of the car, used to look like this:

And now:

[img]http://www.mijnalbum.nl/Foto-RWGV3BEP.jpg[/img]

Still have a few things to do on the rear. Recently ordered Black Chrome Lexus look rear lights, which will look a lot better. New rear bumper will be placed soon too.

A few more pictures:

Here you can see I've installed Xenon 8000k in my JDM Black Headlights:

Many more updates to come!

The new rear spoiler is sooooooo much nicer than the old one

The side skirts balance out the front bumper too - time for a new signature methinks

**Posted:** Mon May 24, 2010 10:19 pm

I want that (2nd) spoiler and front bumper!

Looks nice!

[/quote]

Thanks! I couldn't agree with you more. The 2nd spoiler is by far much nicer. It respects the body of the car.

I do need a new sig.

I'll work on that.

[quote="TheRealMobiius"]I want that (2nd) spoiler and front bumper!

The spoiler is known as the WRI/STX Wing, or as some people refer, a "JT Wing"

As for the frontbumper, that would be a Pakfeiffer G-Style front.

**Posted:** Mon May 24, 2010 10:36 pm

I know what they are, you can buy them from jeroentje but they're expensive.

[quote="TheRealMobiius"]I know what they are, you can buy them from jeroentje but they're expensive.

Fact. I was lucky enough to buy them from clubmembers, secondhanded. I had to spray 'm though which costs a lot too.

**Posted:** Mon May 24, 2010 10:42 pm

They look the sh!t though! lol

**Posted:** Mon May 24, 2010 10:45 pm

your making a nice car

nice them black and white :wink:

**Posted:** Mon May 24, 2010 11:43 pm

New spoiler looks infinately better. Very nice

Lowering it would make it look absolutely awesome. Just make sure to put bigger wheels on it either 17's or 18's so you can handle speedbumps if you have them in the Netherlands

can i see a ran over cone??? :P

I think we have a lot of speed bumps overhere in the Netherlands, and high and big ones :shock:

I don't think... I know!

I'm still not sure whether or not I will lower my car. For starters I'll throw some 17" rims under the car to fill up some space.. If I'm not satisfied then, I guess I will have to lower it a few cm.

**Posted:** Tue May 25, 2010 11:36 am

17" wheels and some 3 cm lowering springs

**Posted:** Tue May 25, 2010 12:42 pm

perfection!!

**Posted:** Thu Jun 03, 2010 4:38 pm

As mentioned above I wasn't happy with the rear of my car. So I've changed a couple of things such as the spoiler, the reflectorpanel.. And today I got a nice little package.. Rear lights!

They match great with the black style I have on the rear, in my opinion.

The lights:

That's it for today! Soon there'll be an update regarding the rear-bumper!

**Posted:** Mon Sep 20, 2010 6:15 pm

Hey all!

Since it's been quite a while since I have posted here, some things have been changed regarding the car. We've fitted the new rear-bumper, though I'm not really satisfied with it. It doesn't fit perfectly, and the new exhaust did not fit well so we had to modify it a bit... Still need to search something better for that.

Also, she's polished and shining like a baby! She's never been this white before, I'll soon make a picture to compare what is was before, and what it is now. Amazing difference.

Here's how she looks now:

This years JAE I bought a UK reverse light, I'll pop that one in soon so the rear will have 2 red lights.

And a Club 323F sticker will be placed. Pictures will follow.

Next year, she will be at JAE!!!
