Real Cars. Real Drivers, Real Performance

Right, it has been a while since I last posted anything on my Rex but have been busy with my new daily runner, still a mazda of course!

As some of you know I picked up the car at a bargain price with help from Carl collecting the car on his trusty steed!! Thanks mate!

Although it did run, she was in a sorry state leaking oil heavily and very banged up! A bit different from my Rex it is a 1993 Mazda MX6 2.5 ltr V6 FWD, so should give the RWD turbo cars a run for their money lol!

The largest dents have been knocked out and cylinder heads have been rebuilt with new valves, seals etc..unfortunately I didn't get any pics of the engine bay before hand except for below, nor during the re-build but have some pics of where we are now.

Pre-rebuild:

Post rebuild:

Just a new backbox and tyres to go! This should keep the milage down on my rex and be more economical for daily use.

looks really good love!! ive always liked these mx6's since i saw one that had been airbagged and was scrapping down the road, they do have a nice sleek look about them. do they share the engine with the v6 ford probe?
