Yeah, maybe because I am in rust land.

[tireboy]

If it has been taken care of ??? maybe .. nice car tho..

[Wilyb]

by 500 bucks maybe...looks pretty clean...quick car too..

[DuRWooD]

So my buddy just blew his engine is his 3 trying to keep up with my 626. Might be helping with a swap.

Yeah, that guy won't budge. Lowest he'll do is $2200. It's got a non-functioning sunroof and the trunk leaks. Those are common MX6 problems, but I'm not letting him skate on the price because of it. $2000 is a handout of an offer and he wouldn't even take that. Also, he says the a/c blows room temperature at best. My 323 has colder a/c than that and the damn belt slips. "Where can you find a car this old that has working a/c?", he said. "Uh, in my garage, right this minute, actually...". Gimme a break.

[bogaut]

save his number and call him in 6 months

[ThatGreenBG]

Eh. There's likely some BG-related boost in my near future, so there won't be funds to buy it with even if he doesn't sell it.

I hate to let it go, but I'm not paying that much, no matter how original and unmolested it is.

Found this gem looking for EGTs on Craigslist:

I don't think it has enough gauges.

[bogaut]

why two tachs?

Because race car ?

[atomicEGT]

I can't even think of what all those gauges would be for.

All you really need is boost and wideband, right?

[Mazda_Powered]

I like the turbo he's supposedly running on it lol

I think all you need is wideband, boost/vac, oil pressure and voltage.

EGTs and oil temp would be nice, but eeenh, maybe if it was a race car.

Gross overall, but that IS one of the better examples of that bumper that i've seen.

I hate the early style dashes, so ugly.

EGT is almost like another A/F gauge to me, I dont see the point in them. On a diesel yes but not for a gas engine.

Its nice to have a real coolant temp gauge though.

[atomicEGT]

Who the **** uses a volt gauge?

EGT gauge is pretty unnecessary. They make a rad oil temp/pressure combo gauge for people who care about that ****.

An actual coolant temp gauge instead of the worthless switch the GT uses is probably a good idea though.

Also, word to the alphabet soup turbo listed in the ad and the obvious baby VJ in the pictures. 99% of people selling cars online suck at life.

[KAinjection]

lol, I got a volt gauge since my battery light is always on, which was something I overlooked during the wiring and another fuse box item l dont feel like messing with until I swap another engine in.
