Hello and Merry Christmas from Indiana

Post by rufireproof »

Hey all. I just recently bought a 92 MX3 base model w/ manual transmission on Ebay. It's currently teal, but I'll be painting it this spring. I bought the MX3 after a failed and expensive attempt at a Firebird. I work at an auto parts store. This is my second Mazda. It'll be a daily driver with few mods, but I'll probably play with it a little.:)

I'm from Warsaw. I'll start a worklog in a few days. All I've done so far is replace a valve cover gasket and a non functional stock radio.

Welcome! I guess you have a GS since you said you replaced "A" valve cover, not "the" valve cover.
With a little work, your car can be 10X more fun than a Firebird.

Ok ,The Valve cover gasket. :oops: I liked the fact that it was so simple and easy. Everything looks pretty simple on this car. I like it when an engineer designs a car with the thought that he might have to work on it someday.

basically it's all about having the right tools, and hoping something unusual doesn't break along the way :D
