What would you do...

Post by Eric Moore »

Well..im half asleep..and didnt notice a general BS'n forum...so I figured this would be one of the most hit...

What would you do if you had a 93 1.6 4 cyl..with an ATX and about two or three thousand dollars. Just curious to see some responses. Not goin for the powered by vinyl look either..only body change I'll probably do is a front lip spoiler..

Heh I was thinkin about it for a while...but then my engine just decided to start leakin oil pretty badly from somewhere on it. Of course it was right after I thought I had it running pretty good. No more squealin or any of that common junk...Thinkin bout just droppin a BP in and goin from there. Wonder how that'd work out...

although u might be able to find a bp with your money, if you only have 2 grand, your still going to have a atx 1.6 mx3 with a bp sitting somewhere and 2 grand less in your pocket cuz ure not going to get it in your car for under that much. if u get the turbo kit and fix your engine its probably much more cost effective, time saving, probably easier, and probably best of all cheaper. but hey a bp is a great motor. if you got the cash to do it right
