Pattheriault 95 MX-3 GS Car is now for sale

Post by pattheriault »

This is my Project car 95 mx-3

Image

I bought the car I think in 08 with a ZE swap from a member here(Kirk95gs)! here's the link to his worklog: viewtopic.php?f=46&t=60776

after that I started collecting part for a turbo set up
I bought Rebel2k4 turbo setup in 09 and then blew the engine later that year!
Car sat for the winter I then got an other ZE from tigers which didnt even last a week and spun a bearing.

Well after that being a student and all I didnt touch that car till a few weeks ago I got the engine out.

Again TigerJap, well sounds like your prioritizing right. School needs to come first. Man that garage looks sweet, concrete floor and up stairs storage. Pick and peck away at the car when you can, maybe scope out another engine and compare that price to rebuilding. There's a good place to buy motors in Montreal (see nitefires worklog). Keep us posted and if you decide to sell some stuff dibs on the fuel pump :P Cheers

I know you believe that you understand what you think I said but I'm sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.

Yeah garage is sweet! helped my father build it last summer! 28x32 i think if I remember correctly

Theres is a good chance I just get a junkyard KL to get this thing boosted and hope it last a year or two.
would give me a chance to rebuild the current one with stronger internal.

Car is now For sale.

if it sell for close to what I want I'll have a bunch of turbo part for sale in the near future.

Basicaly all the parts that I have accumulate throught the year will be for sale. (you can see in the second post what I have collected over the year)
Also alot of spare part like alternator valvecover etc.( I got 3 different KL in this car so basicaly everything that come attached to the engine I have)
I'll be taking the hatch shade and vent visor off the car prior to selling.

This turbo setup did 400+ HP on a stock KL.

If anybody is interested in some stuff let me know.

I'll get some picture of everything if and when the car sell and will be doing an official FS thread.

Sorry to hear that you're selling man, I'm always hunting for turbo parts so I'd like to take a look at what you've got.
