in terms of HP, this car IS NOT that fast,(yet), i will admit that, but  it CAN launch off the line like a bat outta hell, and take the corners faster than most other wanna be ricers.

whats goin on

      To start, i know the car looks like crap, but lets make this clear, im not some wanna be ricer know-nothing honda douche. i know allot about how to properly build a car, tune a car, repair a car. im doing it on a budget of  -$4900, yes thats right NEGATIVE.  IM IN DEBT, so if u look at my car and think wow that looks like shit, or, did he make that himself? YES.i probably did make it myself,  i WILL NOT drop 200$ on a sum fake ass cold air intake, when i can make one from homedepot for 7$.

    Im not as of now, a profesional autocrosser or track driver, although i have the skill, and with practice doing so i could easily become what i wish to do someday..whats stopping me now is a complete lack of $ and i still live at home...finding a job in the current economy is proving to be increasingly difficult and almost impossible.

so about me and stuff,

got a great gf, as of now almost 2 years,  a wolf-germ shep doggie that loves me as much as my gf lol, and a healthy maryjane hobby

back story,

iv'e been tought all my life about common sense and spending as little $ as possible, and i intend to use that till the day i day.

if u can buy it, u can prolly make it urself too.

my first car was a 88 4 door mazda 626, thats where i learned half of what i know. after it being vandilized, the second car and what im currently driving, 89 mazda mx6, that where i learned the rest.

durring the ownership of my mx6, i picked up a 89 probe GT, identicle motor(mazda), chassis, suspension, but a factory turbo, sleeker body (from ford)and  beefy suspension , since its a GT

i swapped: disk brakes, radiator, rear sway bar, reat strut tower bar, endlink bushings, sway bar bushings, and alot of more that i cant even remember, over to the mx6.

most of the things u see that make this car fast, come from the probe i had, hence why it dsoesnt have paint, or much else. or i made myself.

with an empty wallet, i can still find free things to tweak on this car without dropping a dime.

cam adjustment, ignition adjustment, the biggest change i made that was free, moved my whole power band up a bit.
