Actually you will be surprised that there is still a bit of understeer with this combination of springs even with a 24mm rear anti-roll bar. You may actually want to go a little softer in the front and/ or disconnect the front anti-roll bar to get a more neutral handling without the rear end boundin...

This is a common problem with all the 323 based cars. The bigger problem is that the whole 323 family of cars all rust out for the inside out in this area. By the time you see surface rust on the outside, the problem is 20X worse on the side you can't see.

For the most part there is nothing different between the GS and RS front brakes. Just be aware that some of the '91-92 GS actually have the smaller rotates and calipers usually found on the B3-B6 powers BG323's
so there is no benefit to swapping the same parts for the same parts.

He installed a 4 puck clutch and as it turned out the clutch would engage so abruptly that it would sent a hammering shock through the whole driveline eventually b...

Run your AC Compressor, but have the temp stting on Heat. The AC acts as a dehumidifier and will ELIMINATE the fog. No cold will be coming out since you have the heat on. Seriously, works every time. All the newer cars on the road these days do this automatically right from the factory where the A/...

Whats this cam rework you guys talk about? is it the friction gear by any chance? Actually it wasn't a cam rework but a head re-work. The problem was with poor quality gas the pistons would develope carbon deposits and the piston would slap the head. Mazda contracted SLP (yes the SS Camero people) ...

Re: A-Pillar Guage Pod

Are there A-Pillar guage pods available for right-hand drive Mx-3's or do you have to go universal? I assume that you are thinking that same thing as John before he began his Roto into the 'stans'. The only reason that there is a L.H. gauge pod is that someone spend their own money and bought the m...

With a 7.5" wide rim you will need an offset in the range of a +35mm-40mm depending on the tire you mount on it. Tire are not all the same width even though they are listed as being the same size. There is one Asia brand that there 215 is almost as wide as most name brand 235/245's
