    Looking to buy a 2nd gen MX-6, what do I need to know

    Here it is. She needs washed but that's a lost cause until the weather stabilizes a little bit and all the salt washes off the road. Let me know what you think. And I really do appreciate the input everyone has given me so far.

    Looking to buy a 2nd gen MX-6, what do I need to know

    Are there any "must have" mods for this car? It's already got some kind of dual exit aftermarket muffler on it, otherwise it seems to be all stock.

    Looking to buy a 2nd gen MX-6, what do I need to know

    I definitely found the one i've been looking for. 97 Probe GT (GTS package, could someone tell me what this is?), 5 speed, 77k miles, maroon with black leather, absolutely perfect condition, every option ford offered except the automatic transmission, and for $4,499. The car has been...

    Looking to buy a 2nd gen MX-6, what do I need to know

    I'm actually down in dover, right outside of york. We went out to hanover and ran the circuit all the time back in high school when we didn't have anything better to do.

    Looking to buy a 2nd gen MX-6, what do I need to know

    Thanks guys, that's what I wanted to hear. I probably won't get too crazy with it. Probably a good sounding, but quiet exhaust, cold air intake, 16" or 17" wheels, and still thinking about a body kit. That'll probably depend on how much I spend on the car itself. It'll definitely be a 5...

    Looking to buy a 2nd gen MX-6, what do I need to know

    Hey guys, about 8 months ago I traded my escort gt on a chevy s-10, and i now regret making that decision. I've missed my escort since the day I sold it. So i'm looking to get back into the mazda family once again. I've decided the 2nd generation MX-6/Probe is the right car for me, so now I...

    ok, wheres my idle adjustment screw ?

    On my 1.8 dohc there is a stopper bolt on the throttle rotor. It's a b**** to adjust, but that should let you change the idle speed.

    Some questions about 1st and 2nd gen rx7

    Thanks for all your help, guys. I hate to tell you this, but I had to make a change in plans because my dad sold his durango, so I now longer had a tow vehicle for the atvs. Riding quads is what I live for, so I ended up getting a 93 GMC Sonoma so that I can keep riding. By fall i'll probably...

    something like a 200 ohm resistor should do the trick

    Help me!!

    definitely stick with a better brand. I have a sony HU (one of the $300 bastards with the active black panel) and the volume button wore out, so the only way I can turn my volume up is with the remote control. I got it used for $100 though, so i'm dealing with it, i'd just hate for the same...

    is this any good?

    That should be perfect for your requirements. MTX makes good stuff. I run a cheap VR3 200 watt amp with a Volfenhag 12 and it's perfect. 200 watts can pump out more bass than one might think, it makes the rain gutters on my garage rattle from 50 feet away if I turn it up.

    Gonna buy speakers tomorrow.

    That's a good price, i'm not sure about the quality of Panasonic speakers though. I haven't been impressed with their stuff in the past. I do installations for people quite a bit, and so far my favorite low cost speakers are Pioneers, that's what I run in my car off my Xplod 52x4 and they...

    Some questions about 1st and 2nd gen rx7

    What do you guys think about Mitsubishi Eclipses? I know the base models aren't real performance oriented, but i've noticed AWD turbocharged 1st and even 2nd gens in the classifieds pretty often for good prices.

    Some questions about 1st and 2nd gen rx7

    If I could find a running miata for 1-2 grand I might get one, and get a larger vehicle for a daily driver, but the prices are nuttier than a squirrel turd, so I wouldn't be able to buy it and a 2nd vehicle. 2 days ago I saw a mostly stock 93 with 103,000 miles for sale for $6100, and today it...

    Some questions about 1st and 2nd gen rx7

    I'm looking for something around the $5000 range. A v6 mustang or camaro would fit my wants/needs, but I already owned a mustang, and know a bunch of people with cars like that, so I was trying to be a little more open minded with it.

    Some questions about 1st and 2nd gen rx7

    I don't want to buy a car and have to heavily modify it to fit my needs. I'd rather start out with something that suits me. I don't have the tools or experience to do engine swaps, and within a few years a car with a swapped engine might not even pass pennsylvania's state emissions inspection...

    Some questions about 1st and 2nd gen rx7

    Well, back to the drawing boards. I just looked up perormance numbers for a 240sx and it's disappointing. Barely 20 hp more than my escort, and it weighs more, so I doubt it would be any faster.

    Some questions about 1st and 2nd gen rx7

    I like that, too bad I don't have the money right now, because i'd probably get it. I don't urgently need to trade my car right now, so i'm just going to save as much money as I can until I can pay in cash, instead of dealing with a loan. Thanks guys, it looks like when the time comes i'll...

    Some questions about 1st and 2nd gen rx7

    I live in south-central pennsylvania. It's not that there's no import cars, we've go 5 billion honda civics and cars like that, just nothing nice. Everybody that wants an import around here either gets a honda civic or chevy cavalier(kids pretend cavaliers are imports) and mods the hell out of...
