oh no, i want i want..

[flectron]

just spotted this...

and i want. badly.
it\'s rwd right?

ffs someone bid before i do..   mike? you were looking for one of these right?

[Richard]

Damn, blast and other unprintable expletives:mad:

Its been spotted:(

I was hoping nobody else would see it and I\'d get a bargain:rolleyes:

Seriously tho it looks a belter - cant be many like that left.

Gagging for a rotorisation

Best of luck to any interested parties on here

Rich;)

[MikeLMR]

I wish I had one !

You might have some competition on your hands Richard

[Richard]

Hey Mike - the only way I\'d  get  that is if nobody else bids on it, and I dont think theres much chance of that

I\'d love to have it but I\'ve got  too many projects on the go as it is.

So, unfortunately, I think you can count me out guys, and as I say best of luck to those who are up for it

Rich;)

[MikeLMR]

its fair game then  cool.

Wonder if they would let me in the histeric road rally class with an rx323 :rollin  I doubt it somehow :p

if the new RR rules come off as they were draughted out I could drop a 1.8 16v like I have in my fwd gti in it on an mx5 box. 140+ horses should make it shift.

A rotary would be nice though.

Flectron its rear wheel drive.

This was the top selling car in South Africa for many years, I will try and get some contacts going there.

What would you pay for one ? £500?

[philthoid]

I used to have one of those. Went suprisingly fast and spun at the slightest corner. Are they collectable now ? How involved is a rotary conversion ?

[Martiny]

Jeez, I dont think I can get one at a reasonable price!

Just had a look, and early 323s are expensive ( or going for their true value) !  I had a 323 1987 here in the UK, that I struggled to sell for £250.

In South Africa, an OLDER model is selling for £2000.00!!

Geez, if only I could get cars from here to there!!

[travellinbob]

the conversion to a rotary isnt that hard at all. These are great little cars and if my memory is still working after all these years of abuse I think that they have a factory 5 link rear set up that is very similar to the 1st gen 7\'s.
  I am still banned from buying any more cars at the moment but as me chick is getting a horse soon I am sure she will relent:D
  £400 to £500 wouldnt be too bad a price for this as it has mot etc.

[MikeLMR]

shhhhhhhhhh

its dead hard really ... not the sort of project someone else would like to take on ... honest

you may have noticed my cheeky question on the ebay add now ... if you don\'t ask :p

[mullins]

RX-3 diff conversions are dead easy (though might be hard to find an RX-3 diff in the UK). Just cut the mounts off the 323 one and weld onto the RX-3 one. Refit. The width is sweet.

btw: who beat me in the RX-3 taillight auction?

[travellinbob]

Ha!! I didnt bid on the tail light but was tempted. Mind you didnt make too much sense to bid as I dont have the car to put it on:rollin
  So is this going to turn into the ....go on, buy it Mike!, thread?
    pressure is off Gord.



  mind you if you were to possibly maybe think about selling something off first, cough, cough...like a 1000.

  your sincerely. cheeky git.

[MikeLMR]

I don\'t need encouraging ... its going to be a long wait till sunday !

[Richard]

Mike, if you\'r lucky enough to get it, and you need a proper alloy sumpguard and steel strut brace (as supplied by Mazda Uk for the Challenge cars back in \'78) then you know where to ask:rollin

As for rear axle, I ran a disc braked  English on mine but it needed an inch spacer either side to get the 6 inch wheels central in the tub.

Best of luck

Rich;)

BTW 4AGE twink on TB\'s would fit nicely:D

[MikeLMR]

ace ... I\'ll be in touch if I get it
