I try to always keep the car as clean as possible. The outside may suffer over the winter, but the interior stays as spotless as I can keep it.

Dude, that's reeeally clean! Makes my '92 MX-3 look a little ratty inside. 'Course I have the original interior... but I gotta give kudos. Nice job.

P.S. I've got that same MOMO shift **** in my MX!

I love that shift ****. I had a few cheap ones in my RX-7 that broke so I had no regret shelling out the money for the MOMO ****.

helped a friend build a custom turbo 2.4L, great car, so much potential and easy to work on. We need more cars like this.

I wanted to make sure the pics were nice and detailed because one of the pics from the "shoot" is going into a calander. I actually have one larger photo setting on my camera, but I thought 2272 x 1704 pixels was a bit of overkill.

I'm not sure why the two pics where soon small and the others full sizes.

$1K is really good even for a used, pieced together turbo setup. I would like more power, but I doubt that I will turbo the motor because my compression is too low (150 psi on all cylinders compared to 179 psi stock). I don't have the money to do a rebuild plus a turbo kit. However, I am considering doing a rebuild with some mild head work and forged high-comp pistons since that will only add about $650 to the rebuild cost.

nice, I still drive a Black 92 240-SX. Kinda similar to yous but the paint is original and I dont have as many mod's as you do. Oh well its almost time to sell it though and pick up the RX-8 I've had my eye on for so long!
