Hi there, names Nick, just recently purchased my first mx3, picked up a 93 gs with 208k on it. Im somewhat familiar with the k series engines as im from the probetalk boards, ive had 2 well maintained 89 probe gt's (one had an FE3 swap the other ran the stock F2T engine). anyways, wrote off my second 89gt back in april (no fault of my own) and after searching for a few months for another 89 i gave up and decided i would take a crack at finding a decent mx3 as i have always liked the stance and body of them. i was fortunate to find one that fell into the criteria that i had preset, had to be white, had to be v6 and had to have the sunroof, with the particular mx3 i picked up i was not only lucky enough to find it with all 3 base line requirements i had set, it surpassed my expectations. the car has virtually no rust, has a clean black leather interior (minus the seats which i found out where put in the car from a 94) and has a clean engine.

this all made for a great platform to build on, looking forward to learning more about this car during my tenure on these boards =)

I know you believe that you understand what you think I said but I'm sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.

Awesome! It never hurts to plan ahead ;) Think about the tranny though, you'll remember that from the Probe. You probably already know, but we have the exact same one.
