[CRAIGSLIST] 1993 SE (Los Angeles)

It's been quite some time I've been on the forums. I've since sold my ZE, got an MX-6, then a Mazda6... But anyways, I found this perusing through craigslist today: http://losangeles.craigslist.org/lgb/cto/3278359772.html (Cliffnotes: 1993 MX-3 SE, about 160k miles, $1800) I don't think I've seen to...

Re: possible ignition module failure...?

Any other ideas? I know I dont have a lot of information on the history of the car, but does this seem at all like an easy fix or should i simply walk away? My buddy also told me to crank the car for a bit, pull out a spark plug and see if its wet with fuel to determine if the issue lies in the fuel...

possible ignition module failure...?

I've found a rather promising prospect on craigslist, a 93 mx-6 ls that apparently doesnt start up. I've talked to the gentleman and he says one day when he got off of work his car was turning over fine but it wasnt starting up. My first instinct was, "$20 HEI fix...!" but then he told me ...

Re: ze --> de parts?

Oh, right. I didn't clarify that the ZE is a bit tired itself, which is why im a little more reluctant to throw money into at this point. The mx-3 has been sitting, but ill regularly start her up, get her warmed up, etc even take it on a drive occasionally. Yo, slammed6: wanna help me do a rebuild+s...

ze --> de parts?

Alright, so I kinda figure this question has already been asked a quintillion times before, but a journey over to the search function has yielded little aside from a plethora of irrelevant posts, given the rather broad nature of the search terms involved... but anyways-- I've got a slightly wrecked ...

Re: A Tale of Champs, Higher Education, and Sh*tty insurance

I still have the car. So the sum of money they gave me was on top of letting me keep the car, so I mean I'm fairly happy with the result.. i could always just wait off and save up a bit of money to (again) restore the mx-3. The ZE in its is pretty tired, so I'm considering just getting a fresh ZE in...

Re: look what i found at the junkyard

Awww... Man I want one. I didnt even know you could get a moonroof option for the mx. Thats the first one I have ever seen. As far as i know, there never was. Which makes this find extra special, which means someone somewhere out there did all the custom work for me =P it looks like its just a matt...

look what i found at the junkyard

it's what i believe to be a custom moonroof for the mx-3? i was under the impression that a moonroof never came with the car, only a sunroof available. http://www.xerostatus.com/image/IMG_0396.JPG http://www.xerostatus.com/image/IMG_0397.JPG http://www.xerostatus.com/image/IMG_0398.JPG ----- view fr...
