Re: Stock 94 1.6 DOHC...slowww
I'm well aware that a MX-3 isn't a favorite to built up.. Then again why follow the status quo
be different im betting why most of u guys stick with a MX-3.

Mine was free, so yeah, I have almost no right to complain >_>Limegreen mx-3 wrote:I'm well aware that a MX-3 isn't a favorite to built up.. Then again why follow the status quo

But the lack of real support means you have to custom-fab many things...which normally, two years or so ago, would not have been a problem for me

Re: Stock 94 1.6 DOHC...slowww
Custom is the only way to go. I do not want the same set up as the guy next to me. There is nothing worse that a bunch of punk kids with civics and a few bucks. All they have to do is got to turbokits.com or something and buy it. No thinking, half of them have no idea what they have or how to use it. By planning a build you learn soooo much more. I have no respect for people who just buy a pre-fab'd kit... with a flashed ecu or already tuned emanage.
Shame.

i really don't have a desire to work toward making one part that won't really help the car become quicker, its just my DD. i might be willing to purchase a cheaper intake, header, and exhaust but even simple boltons like these aren't made or are very hard to come across. poor tranny gearing and small powerbands are a couple other concerns
I don't feel like arguing with u, just sell u car & buy a honda....

Re: Stock 94 1.6 DOHC...slowww
don't think so, 15k into a car that is one of the most stolen ever, a CF lip, and a desire to the keep the engine and car mint are 3 reasons why i wouldn't do thatnate2k5 wrote:

besides i bought the mx-3 for 400 and it does all i need from day to day...altho i hate the feel of the clutch, way too soft ha
