Re: 4WD box change for a FWD

I can only find 1 tiny problem with that i'm no where near north America i'm an ocean away I'm in England. It was just an idea putting the bigger engine in as the 1600 hasn't the displacement needed I'm sure it will be just fine but I want a bigger engine nontheless.

Re: 4WD box change for a FWD

No no you miss understand I want to turn my mx3 into a turbo FWD but as they say theres no replacement for displacement. I've got a 1.6 and the GTX/GTR uses the bigger 1.8 turbo which is what i'm after otherwise I will have to bore the engine and then add the turbo which is more work then I think ...

Re: Is 104bhp good?

There are very few MX3 in Brum let alone one with 200+bhp. Doesnt it make a load of torque steer? :?

Besides it's always woman that seem to drive up my a-- eather on the bus or in the car, it's like they have never heard of keeping a gap. One almost ran straight into my a-- the other day ...

Re: Is 104bhp good?

What i'm trying to say is before I got my old mans car off him for over a year I had only driven buses and so I must have gotten into the practice of being of being slow and clearful. So I went out yesterday on a road I know is always empty on christmas, with the sole intention of breaking the habit ...

Re: Is 104bhp good?

:crying: This was my old mans old car an when he drives it he makes the car perform. I guess I must have clarmed my style of driving as the last time I borrowed my friends GTi I found that it wasn't performing the way I remembered. I was doing thirty 35 miles per hour when before I would have been ...

Re: Is 104bhp good?

more or less this car is a stand in whilst I wait for a Celica GT4/All Track. Don't get me wrong MX3 is a lovly little car but it's not a drivers car it's a posers car. It is more happy to tutel down to the corner shop like a Labrador, when what I want is a Pit Bull a nasty agressive but can fool ...

Is 104bhp good?

I took my car to the Dyno road to measure top speed and max bhp before I start messing with it. On the Rolling road it made 104.1 bhp and topped out at 125mph accorrding to the machine.

I'm just woundering if this is good for a standard 1600?

Re: Um.. no

Well hang on a second some of your grammer wasn't all that good. Stop running him down about the spelling (i'm not worlds best). Honestly though if I was to see that car on the road I would borrow a wrecking ball and see just how fast it can really fly :mrgreen: .

Re: is this an MX-3?

That sounds good 4WD but that converstion is probably out my price range :crying: .

The guy seemed like a rational guy so it probably is :wink: .

However the car looks like someone decided to squeeze at both ends and it's popped up like the Pegot advertisment with the Elephant. That was a good ad ...
