    hey, i bought a 1990 323dx for a winter car last year, it sat normal for the winter but during the summer it needed to get some mod work done to it. i had completely gutted a 1993 special edition v6 mx3 i had sitting in the shop that was going to get set up for rear wheel. due to lack of time and money for that project....it got crushed. anyways 90% of the mx3 got switched over to the 323, all subframe, all wiring, exhaust, dash, seats, carpet etc. the 323 will be getting my klze and tranny in about another month when i park my summer mx3 (which will be completely redone over winter). the 323 looks pretty much stock right now, i picked up a familia upper hatch spoiler and grill during spring. ive been looking for the front and rear jspec bumpers but nobody around here has any, if anybody is willing to part with some
    heres a pic of the 323, ive painted the trim white allready

    a shot of the mx3

    and i was going to paint the car quick with paintshops hugger orange but it does not look quite right

      that's awesome. klze powered 323!! The orange is a good color, I like it as is. welcome to the forums
      No car! I soldz it. Now I have a truck. I like it, but apparently it has a hard time keeping up with a slightly modified 4WD protege with half the hp. Neat.

          I've decided that my car is a girl, she's picky as hell, won't listen to me, always wants to fight me, and when i give her presents it's never good enough and she always wants more.

            thanks guys. the mx3 will be sold next summer, i have a emerald 1 sitting waiting to get resprayed in a brighter white, the body is almost mint, the current one has a small dent in the rear right over a support brace which is near impossible to fix, it was also in a front end accident before i bought it. the extra klze i have is getting rebuild with all custom upgraded bits and pieces, turbo kit is custom and almost complete, megasquirt unit, modded fuel rails with nissan red tops, bigger fuel pump, in car computer, fiberglassing most interior peices, body kit peices, trying to powdercoat most outside bits (still trying to get the hang on painting with this stuff) other electronics etc.

            would like to get the jspec front and rear bumper here for the 323 soon but it doesnt look like its going to happen.

                      Why is your car really that jacked up? There's tons of clean 323's around my area. Come on down and get one before some dumb ass sells it to the junk yards!
