I've owned some pretty funky cars

1st. 1986 bright yellow 4 door Laser, given to me by my mother... massive doof, 3 years, 3 engine rebuilds, numerous tyres haha

2nd. 1986 Red KC TX3 N/A - Custom interior 1500watts of bass in the boot, rebuilt the engine...

3rd. 1988 KE TX3 AWD Turbo - this thing was nuts, custom everything spent about 40k on her had 150awkw and did a 12.7sec 1/4mile... but was an absolute pain in the ass, it spent 8months on the road in the 4 years I owned it... broken gearbox after broken gearbox...

4th. 1991 V8 GT Soarer - 20" mags, exhaust, stereo... only owned it for a year, Gearbox, Diff, Waterpump all went on the 11th month of ownership... the day after the waterpump went I walked into mazda and said I want that, pointing to the Sp23 on the showroom floor..

5th. 2007 SP23 - heaps of mods, spent heaps of money... gave me 3 years of untroubled motoring 92,000km total

6th. 2010 MPS Lux - Stock at the moment, only 2 days old and absolutely loving it

Is that a 1.8L conversion (BPT)?

I had one of these (KE TX3 1989) for 18 months (8 months off the road too) I went thorugh 13 gearboxs. They have the same internals as the KA/KB laser 1.3L I wrote mine off before I could sell it.




Tyre in the firewall, gaurd overlaps the door, creased roof.

[Caffeine Fiend]

Ouch!

Sick of replacing gearboxes so thought you'd do it properly eh Troy?
