So here it is. The Good the Bad and the Ugly.



Good:

I got a rare tii with a great new paint job and its black. it supposedly has a rebuilt engine with only 6,000 on it. Just about everything works and works reliably. Didn't overheat driving 160 miles to my house. Relatively cheap price.



Bad:

It has 125,000 miles on the odometer. I have to give it some throttle when starting cold. Idle sucks, it jumps around and it doesn't sound consistent. (i think it has a vacum leak somewhere) It has a leak below the oil cooler. doors cant be locked cause no key. 5the gear syncros are going sour.



Ugly:

The outside was hit and paint is chipped on the front left fender. The driver seat is slouching. The windshieldwiper only has one speed, slow but not to slow. the dashboard is tweaked. Many things need glueing.The tint on the hatch windshield is bubbly. Things rattle when moving. One tire is showing on the outside where it should be on the inside. No Carpets.



But all that does not matter. Why? 'Cause its is ******* FAST!!!





Anyways I was wondering if you rotary gods can help me in deciphering what I can do with the Bad and some of the Ugly.



Any input is greatly appreciated.



p.s.: more pics of the car can be seen at Car/sale spot on this forum where I found it. I bought it from sirrelix .









Thanks.

 

Interesting. I hope you have a lot of aspirin.

 

dramon shut up,

congrats on the new purchase, and welcome! it seems that you have some common minor problems to be attended to on your car. check out the faq sections in the specific forums and do searches if you have a focused problem that you may need advice on. otherwise good luck and post freely.

 

Sorry, i'm just really pissed off at my car right now. Good luck man.

 

Looks like a nice car. I always wondered why mazda didn't put the bonnet scoop in the middle of the bonnet. It's to the right as you look at it from the front. Anyone.

 

Rub it in *******!

 

The holes for the top mount intercooler and thats how it sits but then again they probably could have moved it center if they wanted.

 

congrats
