You're right, Ashley, I went and checked out that yard on Joe John's the day I saw your post (I work 10 mins from there) and they've actually got five mx-3's now, most in decent shape. I never found the GS they said they had in the back, but then they showed me the motor they'd gotten outta it. It's...

that's with a curve-neck mani too

Yeah, bro. I'm going to Osaka for a complete ZE for around $650.

Well, I went to check it out a couple days ago, and the owner of that yard obviously has no clue. He was freaking out the the speedometer reads 150 mph. I don't know if he even looked at the engine. It's the stock 1.6L 4-banger. Sorry to get everyone so interested. Thanks, Ashley. I'll prob go check...

Hey, guys, I was calling around junkyards in my area to find an Mx-3 with a good rear end (to fix my old RS) and I found one in a yard way back in the boonies. My dad went to check it out and found it in decent shape. The junkyard owner also told Pops that the car had a 1.5L turbo in it. I haven't b...

Yeah, my car really burns and leaks oil right now. I should replace the vc gaskets too, but I'll be swapping soon anyway. So for now I just feed her 2-3 quarts between oil changes.

Not if it's a valve cover gasket. That doesn't cost much at all (about $20 or so) from your local Mazda dealership. Never had to replace a valve seal, but I wouldn't think that would cost too much either. If you're leaking that much oil, it's probably a bad valve cover gasket. I had that problem a w...

Yeah, man, I'll be posting it as I get it. I won't be making the purchase for about two months yet, but I'll be on when I do. Still doing some research, and haven't quite pinned everything down yet. I know most people don't want to mess with the LSD on a mx-3 because you need new axles to make it fi...

The pickle's point is a big reason why noone has done it yet. Has anyone ever figured out and posted what all would be needed to make the KL-ZE able to withstand 15+ psi? I would really be interested in finding out how much that would cost because seriously, while my engine's waiting to be dropped i...

Hey, thanks for the reply earlier, bro. I'll be keeping up here. Unless something goes crazy, I'll be getting my own ZE from there soon. Only difs are I'm going to get the LSD and I'll be doing the swap and all the mods myself. Keep us posted.
Thanks and good luck!

Hey I once had a prob kinda like that. wasn't really "wheel hopping" but the engine would seriously surge back and forth. Mine, too, was fine in every gear but first. I finally saw that the intake accordion-looking thingy was really worn out and cracked underneath. It was sucking air when ...

Steeb, First off, I'm not a newbie. I've been on this site for about a year or more now. Secondly, I did read up on the "freakin posts and links" and everywhere on Mx-3.com. I don't do alot of posting,but I do alot of reading on this site. I was just asking a few q's and was hoping to get ...

Thanks, guys. Pelado, I probably won't even look any further into the Phantom Grip. Like I said, I'm addicted. Thanks anyway though. :2thumbsup: And, Stuart, what company sells the tranny you're talkin about? Actually, I'd prob be paying out the yin yang for shipping from there anyway, but I'd still...

Hey guys, I just bought a '93 GS and I plan on doing the KLZE swap in a few months. After reading up on it, I really want to drop in the LSD tranny as well. I didn't really know where to post this... I'm just asking for some help/advice from those of you who have an LSD or know more than I do about ...

I now have a GS and am planning on the ZE swap, but I used to have a RS until I got rear-ended by some illiterate redneck in his bubba truck...long story... Anyways, like most of the guys said, your best bet with the RS is to go with something like the 1.8 bp turbo swap. At at least 210-215 hp it's ...
