Re: Another Possible ZE

Thanks Ty, I plan to go with an ACT Stage II clutch, and I have an exhaust that I have not yet welded on, and all the piping from the Cat back is new. Do I really need headers, or can I just use the stock exhaust manifold? Also the engine comes with the ECU and a new timing belt. As for the motor ar...

Re: Potential Wreck for KL-ZE SWAP!

Ahh that sucks man. I was struggling with the idea of turboing my K8 or swapping in a ZE, and came to the conclusion that i'd rather play around with a new engine with less km's than mess with my K8 with 204,000kms on it. Also if i decided to do the swap after, i'd need to redo my whole turbo system...

Front Component Speaker Questions

I'm thinking of picking up some Rockford Power 6.5" component speakers for the front of my 94' MX-3 GS, and I'm just wondering what's a good place to mount the tweeters and the crossovers so the sound and look good.

Exhaust Help

I'm looking to fit my car with a cat-back exhaust system, more for sound than performance, and I'm into the deeper sounding exhaust, not the high ricer sound. I'm running a stock 94 GS at the moment, with the HEI ignition module fix, and I plan on swapping in a KLZE in the future, but I have a few q...

Just tested the spark, and found that there is a spark, however it is very very weak. I am going to have another look at the coil and probably go through with the external coil mod. However, if anyone has any advice or suggestions, again please post them.

Thanks

Center Console Adhesive

I've been fixing up a few minor things with my car lately (94 MX-3 GS) and I noticed that my console lid is cracked. It is a small spider-like crack on the top and rear surfaces of the lid. I was wondering what kind of adhesive I could use to glue the crack back together, without it looking like cra...

Ok I have located the sources of the rattles. Rattle #1 is in the drivers side door, it doesn't seem to be the speaker grill, but the plastic top part of the door, above the fabric part. (the part of the door you would rest your arm on when the window is down) Not sure how to tighten the door to sto...

Rattles from my speakers!

When I started to listen to the stereo in my MX-3 for the first time today, I was a bit dissapointed. I had listened to it before briefly when test driving it, mind you just the radio, and I played with the different equalizer and volume settings. But now since I own my car I decided to throw one of...
