Lower tie bar (will have to do until i purchase the one that turbinetech http://www.turbinetech.ca/produit_de...?lang=AN&id=81 )
B4 installation
After installation
Just need some colour and it good to go.
Then modify this rear strut tower bar to fit my car rear strut tower.
Next on the list is to install some outer cv boot, bleed the brakes then off to the alignment stand.Last edited by mazkam; 04-05-2010, 08:10 AM.Comment

Looks good man. I didn't know you could buy an under body brace for this car. Im curious to see how it handles once you've installed it. I might have to consider getting my self one. hahComment

i am guessing he means for rust. probably nothing you have to worry about from the looks of your under side of the car!2011 BMW 128i 6 Speed Manual -- dd

Oh the strut towers are good. I am having little rust problem under the flooring of the driver side about 3" of rusty metal that needs removal & passenger side about 6"Comment

Yes I do infact mean watch for rust... Quite frankly I don't even know what to recommend because I've seen 2 of these cars break as a result of this and both looked fine from the inside of the trunk... So maybe just do a once over in the top of the shock tower from below and make sure there is nothing there.Comment

Just a small update with wats happen with my car.
What i done to my 323 today.
Repaired leaking oil pressure gauge line that runs off the t fitting block.
Installed new front engine mount.
Radiator fan motor stop working so i temp replace it with an 8" a/c fan
Needs attending
Air condition
Leaking wind shield
Lateral links needs replacing (already in the mail)
Brakes (need 8 mx6 front lugs & Mitsubishi Galant 10.4" front rotors to complete the conversion)
New 12" radiator flat fan
Installing HID
Acquiring parts for the t3/t4 upgrade
Install roof lining
New carpet
Gearbox leaking oil from where shifter connects
Turbo smoking *
(cheaper to replace than repair)
Items i have to install
Poly urethane bushing to fit into the lateral links (the pair closer to the (r) bumper)
Gates racing timing belt (not installing until i acquire oil pump, water pump & timing belt tensioner kit)
80A liquid urethane kit for front & side engine mounts. Here is a DIY link http://elantragtclub.tr****.com/elantra/id557.html
Future mods
BG GTX Front seats or equivalent & rewarped back seats
Install engine management
Piston & rods
Arp studs (head, main stud kit & rods bolt)
ACL Race bearings
Genuine Mazda head gasket
550 cc injectors @ least
Then Toy box conversion
Wanted to install the EVO 8 tdo5hr 16g but it cost a bit too much to deal with @ the moment as i would need to acquire the evo exhaust manifold, elbow & downpipe. Where all i would need with a t3/t4 is to weld on t3 flange onto my exhaust manifold and bolt up the Garret t3/t4 with the relative fittings @ way less than half the cost for the tdo5 conversion. Then i can save towards a real turbo Garret GT3071R.
I will sort out all of the need attending issues before spraying the car or doing any more performance mods to the car.Last edited by mazkam; 07-10-2010, 01:08 AM.Comment
