Re: keep my mx3???
I have a 92 GS 5spd, had it for a year and a half, 135,000 miles, and the only thing major I've done to it is replace the water pump. It's running like a sewing machine!

Re: flowmaster or ractive?
I never dreamed of having a straight pipe exhaust. Like you, I wanted more "noise." So I took it to a muffler shop to have the resonator taken off. After he un-welded it and it dropped off, he told me to start the car up with a foot long HOLE in the middle of the exhaust system. The V6 has...

Re: Can V6 parts fit L4 MX-3's??
If you can be a little more specific that would be great. There are thousands of parts that make up a car, some that fit, and some that don't.<P>Nice to see another KY person on here...

Re: Seat belts
I don't think mine does it either. You might check the shoulder belt, see if your light comes on when you take that belt off. (I believe it should.)

Re: life span of the 1.8?
I bought my 1.8L V6 (92 GS) with 121,000 miles on it and I have nearly 135,000 now. I hit redline regularly and even touch the fuel cut once in a while, around 7700rpm. It's running like a sewing machine, although I'm probably overdue for a tuneup. I plan on keeping this little beast until it's dead.

Re: Job Poll
Last summer I worked at a local shop called "Import Automotive." I learned a lot about cars in general, and even got to completely disassemble two Toyota motors. My boss was rebuilding his engine for his 1981 Toyota SR5 4wd truck and got the engines from his dad (which were burnt in an acc...

Re: Engine knocks-help needed
I notice a ticking about once every month or two. I check my oil, and it's low. Make sure you're up to date on an oil change, and your crankcase is filled up. That should help with ticking.
