Re: MrMazda92's '92 GS - New daily

I still have my '92 GS and my wife's '93 SE, although they've been sitting for a while now. I'm planning to get one or both driving this year, to teach my oldest how to drive a manual.

In the meantime, I finally supercharged my Challenger. Talk about a slow project - it took me a long time to pull ...

Re: MrMazda92's '92 GS - New daily

I've been away for quite a while, it looks like the forum is pretty much dead...

I revived my MX-3, threw her together, and got her back on the road just in time to tow her to Wyoming. As it turns out, Midwest winters aren't too kind for RWD Muscle cars - big surprise - so I picked up a winter ...

Re: MrMazda92's '92 GS - New daily

She lives again.

After sorting out some electrical gremlins with my custom harness and MegaSquirt, she finally idles smoothly.

Now I'm soldering up some 4 AWG ground wires and replacing the alternator/starter wire while I'm at it. I still need to weld the Borla into place and replace a bent ...

Re: [Free]K motor

Are you giving away the wiring harness, too?

I'm semi local, and I could use one for my wife's car.

Re: MrMazda92's '92 GS - Ran under her own power, at last.

So, I finally ended my yearlong search for a new daily driver.

I've been keeping an eye out for a 2011-2014 Challenger R/T for as long as I can remember, and I set out with several goals in mind:
1. 6 Speed, for obvious reason
2. Leather - again, obvious
3. No moonroof
4. White paint
5. Still under ...

Re: MrMazda92's '92 GS - Ran under her own power, at last.

Update:

The car is in storage until I return home, but I have made some progress with my tuning issues in the meantime. Getting the car running shouldn't be a hassle when I get back home, but that's a ways off.

Keep your rack ratio, click the link... You'll be glad you did. The space freed up in the engine bay was worth it all alone, before the reduced parasitic drag and the ability to turn the wheel without running the engine.

Best decision that I ever ...

Re: MrMazda92's '92 GS - Ran under her own power, at last.

I wish; I have 13 months of training for the Army before I will be home.

I may have the option to buy a car during AIT, but wrenching on the weekends wouldn't fly. If I can get her running before I leave, at least she'll see some use while I am gone.

Re: MrMazda92's '92 GS - Ran under her own power, at last.

Bummer... I'm going to be away from home until the middle of 2016, so my car will lay unfinished until I return. :(

At least I'll have all of the pieces ready to go together when I get back.

Re: Wanted part number and . . .

Shipping it overseas will be spendy... It's thin and lightweight, but it'll still probably be $40+ for shipping.

They're easy to remove from a junkyard car - If I see any this weekend I'll let you know.

Re: MrMazda92's '92 GS - Ran under her own power, at last.

Scott has my harness, as well as the Quadspark module that I purchased from DIYautotune.

As this car nears completion, I have begun to really tear into my wife's MX-3 for the first time. Stripped the carpet out completely, soaked it in carpet cleaner, power-washed it thoroughly, and brought it back ...

Re: Suspension parts, interior, sound, etc [Utah, USA]

I have leather front seats in Oregon.

They're aftermarket, higher quality than the stock leather, and rate around 8.5/10 for condition.

I'm interested in a few of the items, but will depend on the specs...

Re: MrMazda92's '92 GS - Ran under her own power, at last.

I scored a set of KLG4 coilpack wires for a great price online, so I will no longer have the intermittent spark issues caused by the modified stock wires.

The wire harness and ECU are on their way to Scott for the "QuadSpark" ignition module install and final testing with his car.
