Re: Bought a 93 MX3 GS -Love it!

It looks better in the photo than it does in real life. There a a bunch of tiny paint chips in the front, and the rear bumper was fiberglassed really badly.
Here's a pic of the bad bumper.

If I find a replacement bumper, I'll repaint. Otherwise I'll ...

Re: Bought a 93 MX3 GS -Love it!

Lips are hard to come by I assume?
I was thinking of removing it for the winter since it will likely bottom out in the snow.

Re: Bought a 93 MX3 GS -Love it!

Here are some pics of my new ride.
Was this an original colour? I didnt see it listed as an option, but have seen other MX-3's the same colour.

Things to fix:
•The rear bumper has been badly repaired by the previous owner.
•Clean the paint off these rims, or fix up a set of 5 stars I have which ...

Re: The Harassment Begins: E.R.A.S.E. Starts Today

I just saw a news story (on CityTV I think)

The cops had a guy pulled over and were inspecting his engine, and saying that he had circumvented the emissions devices on his car. Anyway - I'm pretty sure it was an MX3 that was getting busted. Blue one.
They took the guys plates. Poor bugger. I ...

Re: Bought a 93 MX3 GS -Love it!

I was told they had replaced the engine without upgrading it. But I was surprised at how fast it is, so I looked for any identifying marks.... Couldn't really see anything on the engine itself, but the Air intake had a k8 stamped into it. Also it passed emissions, so I'm thinking it is the 1.8.

Bought a 93 MX3 GS -Love it!

I was looking for a cheap car and came across a few mx3's on craigslist. I didnt really know anything about them but liked the way they looked. I ended up buying one certified and e-tested for $1500. 310,000 KM on body 60,000 on engine.

What a great car! I love this thing! That little v6 has got ...

Re: Electrical window motor

My drivers side window wasnt working at all, so I just replaced the window motor and assembly with a used one. It worked, but was a bit slow, so I took it out, and greased up the wire and pulley. It is much faster now in general, but still slows down once it is 3/4 of the way up. Seems there is ...
