Cool find, looks like it was worth the hunt! :thumbsup:
Curious as to what is next...
As Bob said, dry is good. I'm no expert on the subject, but do you know what kind of company shipped it out? Was it an art delivery company, or a generic shipping place? The only reason I ask is...
Thanks everyone. I always figured a ND would be a blast in winter, but the rust factor worries me more still than other cars. That being said, I've seen several mint, winter driven, first gen 3's...
Piggybacking the thread - has anyone here winter driven an ND longterm? Mazda rust is still a thorn in my mind. Seems like modern ones don't have any major issues...
Looking forward to updates on this one! Good find.
Thanks!
I remember the Mazda! I thought it was one of my friends at first so I looked over at the lights. And yea, it is crazy. You've got people slowing down and then other people speeding up, which is why...
Lol! Ya that was bad, I will admit. I was trying to slow down with the construction and clear out the lane so people could pass. Unlike most people, I do try and slow down in construction zones. I...
Following! This is cool already. Any other traces of its former life as RCMP car?
So glad this is still on the road, always liked the look of these.
Haha thank you both. It truly is a bare bones machine, and I'm always hesitant to add more weight to it unless it really modernizes it in some way. There are now two companies who finally offer...
The years of searching are over! I finally found the Mugen Fit Shuttle half bumper to go along with the Mugen Fit Shuttle grille. As far as I know there are likely less than 4 of the half bumpers in...
Mustang wheels really work on there!
So Hasport has sent me a new mount. But now a buddy with another K swapped GE also had the cracking at the same point, but not as servere as mine (yet).
Also, the SRS light from the '08 Civic Si...
A series of aftermarket failures and an OEM wins, 2/2:
I was driving late last week when I heard a weird noise coming from the front right. I thought something was jammed in my suspension so I...
A series of aftermarket failures and an OEM wins, 1/2:
The flexible KTuned dipstick, keyword flexible, snapped in half! They sent me a new, all metal version after this. Why wouldn't they just...
I am digging the look of that - ans nice China town shot. Part of me wonders if you'd get pulled over for that light?
They were only running on hopes and dreams before this.
Sorry, this really sucks. I assume insurance doesn't care?
Wild.
Yea lots of questions for sure. As far as I am aware there are only three Kswapped Fit's in the country, all of them are second gen and all are somehow in Alberta.
Some pics from the show courtesy of Jason Hoang! it was was weird coming in with a basically stock appearing Fit and having a Mclaren parked behind me. Links to more pics from the show:...
Doing some small things before the show tomorrow. Installed Hybrid Racing shifter bushings. Shifting effort is increased but it is more direct feeling. I have detent springs as well to install, but...
If you come by I'd love to chat about the Element!

If anyone is bored on Sunday or wants to see the car, come say hi! It'll be at the Garagebox booth.
Oh man, I couldn't even wrap my ep3 tail lights with a red film. It looks great! Hope I see it in person sometime.
This has been a fun read. I should really learn how to weld. I too hate throwing things away.
Oh I didn't realize that! Bummer.
There's a real nice SC model out in Kelowna right now for $21k, only 113k if I recall correctly. It's on autodrader. The one's in Calgary are mostly insanely priced.
Looking good!

Amazing. Soundwave for president!
Congrats! It's a good feeling. I saw that on Instagram - good buyers!
Any TF fans here? 53 x 39". I'm going to try canvas for the next few. I can't keep working on paper when I think about the...
What kind of Subaru was it? What failed?
When my brothers '13 STI died, it was due to a cracked oil pickup pipe. For peace of mind I'd recommend a aftermarket replacement while you're at it. If I recall correctly my brother bought his new...
I'm quite sure I saw one of these but the AMG model at Pick'n Pull on 52nd in row 19 or 21 today. It was also red. I'd imagine they are rare so I'm passing this on in case you're looking for parts at...
Picked up some KTuned cosmetic goodies, but in truth they are a much more functional purpose for this build. With the windshield cowl in the position it is, opening the coil cap requires quite the...
This is gonna be so much fun!
I've always wondered what these were like to drive. When you're driving it do people slow down around you?
Can't remember which came first but it was either a red Momo shift boot, or a horrible Momo shift knob held on with grub screws. I should have been focused on gas tank replacement/repair right away....
This is amazing!
