Hi all, my name is Franco and i live in Aruba, WI (it's in the caribbean).
i've been visiting this site for a couple of years now but just to get some info on troubleshooting etc.
i finally decided to join in on the fun!!
i previously (in 2006) owned a 92 mx3 with the BP motor in it (it's like having a small "member", if you know what i mean :lol: )
it was my first car and i bought it for about 1.5k USD but it was in very bad shape. i didn't do any mods to motor, only repairs :lol: . i did some light mods to the body, shaved door handles and painted it, lowerd it to the floor and had a moster sound system, that was about it. in 2008 i was looking to buy my second mx3 , and to my surprise it was a 92 mx3 GS, oooohhhh i was in heaven. i bought the GS for about 2k USD and i quikly got rid of the old one (sold it feb 2008 and new owner crashed it in sept 2008 http://www.24ora.com/content/view/6061/8/). now the GS is my daily driver, i just overhauled the motor completely (new piston rings, new bearings and new complete gasket set) and i also dressed the engine up with new colors and ofcourse i lowered it a bit.http://www.paporacing.com/gallery/album ... 220008.JPG (pics of motor coming soon)
i wish to share much information on mx-3.com and hope to get some needed help from all users who can be of any assistance.
