What have I done to my MX-3?
Some of my friends say the question should be what haven't I modified on the car.

My Car Specs: (At least for now)


1993 MX-3 GS

COLOR: Laguna Blue (Paint Code 6W)
ENGINE:Recently replaced with J-Spec (KL-ZE) 2.5L V-6 [was] (KL-DE) 2.5L V-6 from 626 (Original (K08)1.8L V-6)

For higher top end speed and to reduce wheel spin in 1st & 2nd gears. (I have recently gone back to the original final drive ratio transmission due having the Centerforce Dual Friction Clutch flying apart damaging the input shaft, throw-out fork and starter nose.)
