turbochris Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 I've seen a mazda 323 4x4 (1999) for sale and im really tempted..its the 1.8 running 220 bhp with a hybrid turbo. i already have a gt turbo but really tempted to buy this.looks really nice. I was just wondering if any one has any previous experience with one of these or no what there like? reason im tempted is because moneys tight right now and i really cant afford to put much into my starlet to get it to that spec and the insurance is way cheaper for it.any advice on it would be apreciated?

Russleh Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 i dont know much about them but are they not quite a rare car ? and rare means one thing to me. expensive parts. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
turbochris Posted January 23, 2011 Author Share Posted January 23, 2011 yeah i think they are and thats my main concern with it really. looks preety decent for the money but i do love my gt :/ haha. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Russleh Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 well if money is an issue with the gt then i wouldnt bother buyin a car thats rarer nd gonna cost more to fix than a gt if it does break lol. just my 2p tho Quote Link to post Share on other sites
shorty Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 is one round my way and my v aint shy but that thing shifts!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bluebear Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 Supposed to be stupidly quick, but I've heard that like the Pulsar, there's a few weak links. I'd go for it, just to have and experience a 323. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
turbochris Posted January 23, 2011 Author Share Posted January 23, 2011 yeah I've just started looking about for parts now actually and they dont seem to easy to come by so it probli wouldnt be a wise move. Might just save up for a bigger spec gt actually.quite a few on piston heads atm for a decent price Quote Link to post Share on other sites
