coastie08 04-10-2007, 02:32 PM Ooo, that looks pretty cool (and not overly flashy). Nice buy!

lesper4 04-10-2007, 03:30 PM silver one looks pretty strange but neat. you need to replace or clean the front headlights!
mac11 04-10-2007, 03:42 PM jdm VIP buddie
Just because it has a name doesn't mean there is anything good about it. Remember the hindinberg? or nazis?

JB_Rotary 04-10-2007, 04:55 PM VIP. Ridiculous camber. Low ride height. Huge fender flares. Tint. Big rims. Win.
WaitingforFI 04-10-2007, 04:57 PM Looks like a good plan; sans the headlight covers
ChuLooz 04-10-2007, 05:15 PM that silver one's front is looking real nice...for 3k that was an awsome buy...good luck with future plans
AJ's Shinka 04-10-2007, 05:58 PM Nice find I used to live in Japan and saw a lot of those fixed up. Very nice.
Easy_E1 04-10-2007, 08:51 PM Nice find! I'm liking the silver kit, looks real good. Good luck in your mods. And post some more pic's when ya get to working on her.

Excellent buy! Post some pics when its a complete VIP ride!
Mikeluvs8 04-10-2007, 10:54 PM thanks for the comments, i've always been a loyal mazda owner,and believe it or not i got the rims for $75 each brand new. :D
bruce_van 04-11-2007, 01:23 AM yeah the driver headlight is kinda yellow, im looking into replacing that.
You should try some PlasticX polish by Meguiars. It works wonders. just spend 15 minutes on each headlight and buff them to a brand new look. Worked my my 14 year old Lexus.
california style 04-11-2007, 03:50 AM nice...doesnt it have a 20b already tho?
HCTR154 04-11-2007, 05:49 AM I believe that's a '94 or '95 929. I bought mine 3 years ago from the second owner for $3,000. It had 90,000 miles.
I immediately replaced the timing belts, bought aftermarket 16" wheels/tires and tinted the windows. Later, I replaced the stock wimpy muffler with a chrome one from Magnaflow with dual outlets!
Here are the things that you will be replacing soon.
1. Water pump
2. Air intake hose....they tend to rot and break up. When mine let go it ruined my mass air sensor!
3. Alternator
4. Cam seals
Other than that and just routine maintenance items, the car has been good to me. Still rolling with 135,000 miles and counting. It needs shocks/struts badly, but I keep putting it off. Oh, it gets BETTER gas mileage than my RX 8! 23 mpg vs. 18-19 mpg.
If I remember, I'll post a pic tomorrow.
caaahhlvinn 04-11-2007, 07:11 AM very nice buy. can't wait to see it hooked up !
