Selling a 1992 mx-3 rs sohc for parts, or for use. Has a BRAND NEW ENGINE (bought from Japan in feburary), a BRAND NEW CLUTCH with 400 miles, plus many other new parts. The engine runs perfectly. The body is in good condition. Tranny needs work. Will sell for a reasonable price. I also will (may ...

incredibly unrealistic and WAY too expensive

nopt only does gutting your cat lose backpressure, but ut also SLOWS DOWN exaust flow... gutting your cat is extremely not recomended. i cant think of an easier way to lose hp, torque, at least $100, legality, and time. not good at all.

on an mx-3, an exaust pipe of 2" is recomended(alway mandrel-bent), unless you have a turbo or nitrous.

the tube going to your throttle body MUST be used for your car to work. i have a "home depot" intake. i got a breather for the valve cover. i integrated the hose from the throttle body into the intake via drilling a hole in the intake and glueing a 90 degree elbow into it. i then hooked op the hose ...

it just might be your clutch... if ur clutch was going bad already, bringing your car to redline may have caused your clutch to slip as your rev-limiter was kicking in. have you ever smelled a burning clutch? smell remarkably like the exaust/sulfer smell that you noted. a new cluch on a 1.6 is about ...

my friend w/ an auto mx-3 had that prob.... he said that he just got his idle set correctly to fix it

what about the venom computerized system? can you get it for the mx?

mine is just great. i have 2 tiny rust bubbles on the body right behind the right rear tire. just wash the car regularly and you shouldnt have a problem. it might be wise to also invest in a battery powered lock de-icer :p

the rust on the rotors should be fine. after braking a few times during driving, the rust should be gone.

dotdo it, it is more weight than it is worth... it may actually hurt your hp. there isnt enough air moving to nesessitate it, unless your running with a turbo or nitrous.

i read in recent article in sport compact that it is much easier and much, much cheaper to just buy a different car that already has a manual transmission

if icant find one, i migh be interested in parting it out... whole drivetrain has less than 20k miles, including the transmission that just broke... 1992 rs teal...
