Is it easy to do that ?

Here's a little video of the mx-3's first time out of the garage in over 2 years.
The probe hub swap is a direct swap except where it bolts to the strut must be machined down.

It's been a wile and quite a bit has happened.
The mx-3 is no longer a v6 but rather a BP turbo now. I will get some pics op as soon as I can. 8)

C'mon Brah dont keep us in suspenders! Get those images up, Havent seen daylight full car shots yet either have we?!

It's been a wile but good weather is on its way to NY state and she will be getting out of the garage soon.
Major updates:
SOLD JDM full length skirts and have fabricated my own custom skirts.
RIPPED OUT THE KLDE and installed a BP turbo running about 12psi.
At the moment I am working on my intercooler/radiator setup and plumbing.

They do look good, although I would of omitted the mudguards :)

That would have actually made the project much easyer. I just finally got the passanger side mocked up so that I can now get a good profile shot. I like it so much better than the JDM full length's.

I'm getting close….....
The little helper is getting bigger. :D

Looking good :D

Big change. I'm selling the car and most of my parts.
I will update with the new addition when I get it. :mrgreen:

Well, it was parted out and the shell now belongs to my brother, but it all ok because I now have a nice new 1994.
Here's a farewell pic to the orange and a welcome pic to the new ride.
Many of my parts have made their way over to the white car and I have also been working on a number of thing this winter…. More updates soon.
