1993 Mazda MX-3 RS
Purchase from a guy who just had it sitting with no TLC
Had 131K miles and a broken Odometer, cracked windshield, broken front left headlight.
No Parking Lights or Turn Signals...and no radio.
Bone stock.
The paint is faded as usual.
However, the car lacks the brownish fungus called Rust.
Had to do some recoperating to the poor lil thing.
Changed the Plugs and Wires.
PCV valve.
REinstalled the Cat (way too loud)...started to get the Honda noise stares.
Currently working on determining what is causing the problems with the light issues.
Upon changing fuses...now have no interior lights, no radio power and now rear defrost.
However, taking a test light I find out power goes to the above when the hazards are on.
Must be a short or fried wire somewhere in the system.
Current Goal is to get her road worthy.
I will be taking apart the dash to gain better access to the main wiring harness and see what surprises I find.
Future Mods...Well and Enigne swap is a given.
This cr doesnt have much power on the highway.
Accelleration in 1-3 gears is good, but once I reach 55 and try to pass other cars or trucks on the freeway...its at a snails pace.
I plan on reconditioning the body as the weather permits and follow through from there.
