Hello fellow BG chassis brothers and sisters. I have been really hesitant to start a work log because im not too much of a mechanic. So this is going to be a gallery/worklog to show you guys why i have dubbed my baby as the "Unofficial" mazdaspeed mx-3.The funny thing about the mx3 is that i bought it for my wife and it is her car ( I own a 1993 MX-6) but i am always adding new stuff and trying to keep it tip top as if it was mine lmfao and i believe its a great car with tons of potential. I dont know if im the 2nd. 3rd, 4th, owner or any history on the car. After me and my wife had got engaged 2 years ago i wanted to get her a car so we looked at a few. something small yet nice was what she was looking for and me already being a mazda man i suggested the mx-5.
She had told me it was nice but way to small for her taste. so i did my research and found about the mx-3...I NEVER even noticed or heard of these cars at all before i had looked around Mazda's repertoire. I instantly fell in love and started to search an online used car service. I found this black 1993 GS about 200kms from where we were stationed and it was American specs (I'm in Germany) so we went out to see the car and the body and interior were in ok shape the engine looked like ass lol. but we bought it for 900 euro (about $1200) and that is that.
