  • Think we are overdue some updates Bro ;)



  • Nice spec, can we have more pictures ?
    @01d0f7ac89=Aarontietje:

    … 1st gen probe 1992 hub/spindles on the front only....

    Is it easy to do that ?



  • Here's a little video of the mx-3's first time out of the garage in over 2 years.
    The probe hub swap is a direct swap except where it bolts to the strut must be machined down.



  • It's been a wile and quite a bit has happened.

    The mx-3 is no longer a v6 but rather a BP turbo now. I will get some pics op as soon as I can. 8)



  • C'mon Brah dont keep us in suspenders! Get those images up, Havent seen daylight full car shots yet either have we?!



  • It's been a wile but good weather is on its way to NY state and she will be getting out of the garage soon.

    Major updates:

    SOLD JDM full length skirts and have fabricated my own custom skirts.

    RIPPED OUT THE KLDE and installed a BP turbo running about 12psi.

    At the moment I am working on my intercooler/radiator setup and plumbing.







  • They do look good, although I would of omitted the mudguards :)

    That would have actually made the project much easyer. I just finally got the passanger side mocked up so that I can now get a good profile shot. I like it so much better than the JDM full length's.



  • I'm getting close….....






    The little helper is getting bigger. :D



  • Looking good :D



  • Big change. I'm selling the car and most of my parts.

    I will update with the new addition when I get it. :mrgreen:



  • Well, it was parted out and the shell now belongs to my brother, but it all ok because I now have a nice new 1994.

    Here's a farewell pic to the orange and a welcome pic to the new ride.

    Many of my parts have made their way over to the white car and I have also been working on a number of thing this winter…. More updates soon.



  • looking good#



  • agree. Performance parts with external "clean look" is way more classy.Nice
