1990 Mazda MX6 LX review from North America
"Mystery under the hood"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Until today, the car been running perfectly.
Only the alternator and starter blew up!!!
Of course the power antenna jammed.
General comments?
The engine was taken out at 302000 km.
I had put a fresher one inside at 174000km.
The old engine is in a rebuild process.
And will add a turbo to it.
I expect to get a near 200hp out of it and will add a Nitrous system.
I used to be a V8 fan, but since I owned this car, it really kick asses...
Even when the 302,000 engine was in the car, I was still able to reach the injection cut-off (at 180 km). Just try to do so with a Camaro.
