Re: Mikals 92 Mazda Mx3 rs

new problem on the mx, filled up the gas tank tonight and found there is a small leak somewhere. Getting the car up on a ramp tomorrow to check how bad the hole is and if it's fixable or if a new tank is needed.

Re: Mikals 92 Mazda Mx3 rs

We are hopefully going to be able to get the title stuff organized then we need to get some way of transporting the mx3 from the junkyard to where we are going to swap it over. It turns out that this mx3 in the junkyard is also a 92 rs so I hope to get a camera soon to get some pics up.

Re: Mikals Mx3

This car's really starting to dissappoint me, I was looking around inside it today and the drivers side floor is soaked. And at only making ~$120 a week this is going to be a long
project.

I'm almost positive now that I'm just going to do a bp engine when i get to the engine swap part of this car. Would the normal bp be good to turbo?
