front seat replacements for 93 mx3

OK...I have read the many posts on swapping seats for the front. Im in no way any type of mechanic or fabricator. I would like to know if there are seats that will bolt right back to the existing rails.

93 Mazda 1.6l 5-speed base model swap tires

Is it possible to swap the stock tires and rims for 15in tires and rims? If so, does it have any other complications like brakes?

94 mazda mx3 - 1.6L, 5speed - driver side axle problem

My mechanic tells the driver side axle is "stuck" on the inside connection. My mechanic spent a couple of hours trying to uninstall the axle to no avail. Any ideas? My mechanic said I might call a transmission shop because it seems to be "stuck" to the drive axle???

Help

cold air intake - 94 mazda mx3 - 1.6L - 5speed

Over the weekend, I just replaced the snorkel tube. I started to replace the air filter with a new K&N cold air intake kit. I realized the adapter K&N shipped with the kit was for a 93 Mazda. The 93 Mazda had the square inlet and round outlet. My 94 Mazda has the round inlet and round outlet. I have ...

Re: 1994 mx3 5-speed engine stall

*****UPDATE*******

It turns out the intake air house after the MAF sensor was full of holes. For a temporary fix, I had to tape it up with duct tape and hvac insulation tape. I also replaced the pcv valve and a piece of vacuum tubing that was connected to this intake air house and the top of the ...

1994 mx3 5-speed engine stall

I have a question.....When I am at a stop and idling, my car stalls out. It does restart. I'm curious where do I start to look to see why this occurs. The rpm gauge is above the line and below the 1000 mark.

Any ideas would be great.

Re: 1994 mx3 1.6l 5-speed low-no heat

Do I keep adding fluid in the system? How will I know if and when the air has vacated the system?

1994 mx3 1.6l 5-speed low-no heat

I replaced the timing belt, water pump, and thermostat. When the car idles I can get the temp gauge to go up and I get heat. When I drive, the temp gague drops below the "C" and I lose my heat. I have checked the fluid in both the radiator (which was low and I bled the air bubbles out, I think) and ...

Re: cooling fan motor

Yes. I have all the original invoices from the original owner for all the work on the car. I will look thru the paperwork again to make sure there was not an engine swap. Thanks.
