To answer your question Rob (my name is Robert as well ahaha) I'm not even 100% sure what I want.
What I THINK I want is a car that does a good 1/4 mile time, a sleeper to a tee. Someone that can lay down power quick and thats very fun to drive and handles ...

I'm going to school this September for automotive mechanic.
I own a 94 gs. Engine seems to be in good shape with 175k on the body and engine and the clutch is dying. I seem to have an issue with my rear back tire as well, almost sound like something is hitting my tire or something.

Re: Sunroof problem - 94 gs
If it's moving at all, chances are the relay itself is fine. The sunroof opens and closes using a slide/track design, which is cable driven(IIRC?), I believe similar in design to the power window regulators. The motor is what does the turning itself, if it's clicking it probably is turning ...

Re: Engine swap (KLZE) - tips for someone that has zero expe
Why you looking at buying a trans?
Indeed, beware Tiger Japan, only worth while if you go in person, and you know what you're looking for
I was told by someone on this site I need a new trans if I was going to swap the KLZE in for the k8? Is this not true?
Okay, is there any trusted website I ...

Sunroof problem - 94 gs
Hey guys! Not sure if this is the correct place to post this, if so redirect me and sorry about it.
When I purchased my car about 4 months ago the lady that sold it told me said the "sunroof motor" was busted. I did some searching and finding one of these seems to be very difficult, and everyone ...

Turbocharging a k8 - need some advice
Hey guys. I've been doing some reading and I understand that a majority of you do not support ebay turbo's and I understand why -cheap and unreliable.
But here's my reason why I would; very cheap compared to a brand names, not for racing or for show car just for a little fun.

Re: Robert Teal (v6 trout) Mazda mx - 3. First project ever
I'm 100% down with not telling them.
Only problem is, is that, when I asked them if I was okay with it they asked what size of an engine do you want to swap in, I said a 2.5L then this guy said one sec, put my on hold, came back and gave me this huge speach as to why It's a bad idea, how they don't ...

Re: Robert Teal (v6 trout) Mazda mx - 3. First project ever
So I have a plan for what I'm going to do with the rust. On the passenger side I'm going to fix it myself, like I said it's not as bad as the picture makes it seems (either of them for that matter). Although, the driver side one is pretty bad and I'm most likely going to see if I can find new parts ...
