hey guys my names mike.. AKA "thefez"

My new car is a 92 MX-3 GS its a 5-Speed:P

Anyways a little explination about my User name will tell how i came to be here my car befor this was a 2001 Ford Escort ZX2, and my U.N. on the zx2boards was FEZX2 and everyone just called me FEZ lol... dum but thats how i got my name more or less.. anyways why an MX-3.. well i had sold my ZX2 because of rust issuses and needed to find something quick the MX-3 came up for a good price with a low milage motor(80K) so i Jumped on it..

Well that brings be here now ive been reading alot on here since i had truble making an account on here for quite some time. But can't wait to learn and do more to the MX-3 thanks - Thefez

SuperK think that thefez should always reference himself in third person. SuperK would also like to welcome thefez to the forum. I am sure SuperK and the others is curious where thefez lives, to have such a low milage mx3! SuperK is jealous >: (

Hmm, seems people wont 'do it' without you on. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q71gvV9n9Cs

Welcome Mr. Fez, now we can do it with you on as well.

Thefez was told apon buying said car that a 80k motor was put it after driving for 2 weeks i belive this to be untrue. But the car only has 135k for a 92 i dont thinks too bad over all. Im thinking im going to buy a used 1.8 that has been imported from japan and dump it in. Cars smoking alot:/

I fixed your post. you didn't follow the proper posting guidelines. If you are going to get an engine, get the 2.5l KL and use that. You can either import it and get the KL-ZE with higher HP, or get a local KL DE from a ford probe or mx-6 or the other million cars that use that engine. the DE will definitely be super affordable. You'll keep the same gas milage and get a better, more servicable engine.

It's a drop in swap, so if you're swapping, dooo it.

Sorry I was on my phone while posting.. But to answer your questions from befor, I live in the US(PA) the car has 135K on it as of now..

Thanks for the tip on the swap from reading I honestly think the K8's a better motor in terms of high rev limit and internal strength.. but i could be wong.
