Hmm, I may have a buyer for the 1994 PGT soon, what kind of fuel mileage do you typically get out of it?

Any ideas on the what's up with the heat? Does it need a t-stat or the heater core replaced?

And just curious, are both headlights permanently propped up? Is there a switch in the car like the later NA Miatas that allows that?

I can register this car as historic in MD...maybe even attempt a track day in it next year...

I think its a short in the heater blower wiring, I replaced the temperature selector control unit (its all digital and controlled by servos and such. I've never really looked into it much. The drivers side is a new old stock ford unit, and I have a used one coming for the passenger side. I get mid-20's easily, but yes it has a switch like a Miata to keep them up.

All i really have to offer is... my MX6, and that doesn't really make sense.

Someone buy this and Challenge it! This car can get fast in a hurry!

Dan, this thing isn't 100% stock if i remember correctly, yes?

the ECU and boost controller aren't goin as I'm gonna run them in the F2T MX-3 (If they ever get to work on it). I'm not forced to sell it, just realy don't like seein it set there doin nothin. Engine and transmission are phenominal, PS has issue, as does the Heater.

How about a 83 RX-7 GSL with a bad engine, a bunch of spares (transmission, interior, wheels, ect.) and $$$?

Everyone needs another project.

Bump.... I installed a new headlamp motor, flushed heater, and found the short in the heater blower. $1500 is a great deal on this thing, I just really find it hard to justify 3 cars. Though I would prolly swap for a Miata, Corrado/Scirocco, or other interesting swap. Deat nuts reliable, just had it to D.C. and it had set 3 weeks (30+MPG) Uploaded with Snapbucket (Original) Uploaded with Snapbucket (Original) Uploaded with Snapbucket (Original) Look how clean the inside of the valvecover is.... Its been VERY well maintained! Uploaded with Snapbucket (Original)

Man, I really like this car. I used to have an 89 GT, but mine was rather rough. It was a blast though. A little far for me, but if you still have it after the 1st, I may be interested.

I paid $68 for on of these. With the boost cranked up it would pull John Force level burnouts. Great little cars as long as the transmission holds up.

My Turbo MX6 got 41mpg on the trip from Indiana down to the GRM $2012 Challenge.

No aero mods other than being lowered a rather large amount.
