1991 Mazda 323 Bg Gtx review from Australia and New Zealand
"Great car for performance with low budget"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Blown water pump Replaced radiator.
Blew Clutch.
Blew Gearbox 10000km after clutch replaced.
General comments?
Fun car to cruse round in, Turbo sucks heaps of gas on boost.
Gearbox is not strong you should not launch car.
Cheap to modify with good results, can increase the boost with a simple modification bypassing the waste gate solenoid.
Good first turbo car.
4wd provides very good traction.
Very fast, but offers poor crash protection.
