My new Laguna Blue 93 MX3 GS-ZE

Post by 91EscortGT »

Picked up this MX3 GS with a ZE in it on wednesday for $1300 with an engine noise... got it home and played with it for a while, and of couse its the infamous spun 5/6 bearing..

So of course 1st thing on the list is an engine, more than likely will just build a DE/ZE hybrid

Car belonged to a cop, who sold it to my buddy ryan in 2008 with the engine noise.. Ryan put it in the garage and NEVER touched it!!! Not once!..

$1300 5yr garage stored 93 GS that is 100% rust free even underneath.. Cant complain at all

Car came with::
KLZE
ZE ECU
Pacesetter Catback
strut bars front and rear
Centerforce clutch
PRM JetStream intake
and some hideous 17s.

There was also a BNIB stainless steel gauge bezel and set of indiglo gauges if anyone may be interested.

On to the pics, I should be getting my garage on the 1st so thats when the madness will happen.

Finally got the keys to the garage Im renting, so the MX3 will go over there on wednesday... not much for updates other than sold the gay a-- 17s and put some Integra wheels on it for now...

Also scored rear spindles and e-brake cables from a 1G probe for 5 lug conversion... Im picking up the front spindles tomorrow morning... and also trying to get a hold of a set of FD wheels locally.

The garage I rented:: Got the whole thing, (2nd floor included) for $300/mo including electricity!!
(My S60 T5 on the left and my bros 00 SI)... the left side has a work room off to the side, this is where the magic will happen lol

Gay Acura wheels, only temp til 5 lug is done

And the rear 5 lug swap from the Probe LX V6 I found in the yard
