My folks and I are about to start building a house and cars aren't as interesting as they once were for me, so it's time to sell up. Anyway, some info:
1993 Mazda Familia GT-X
~118,000 KM's, I've owned it since 87,000 and looked after it thoroughly.
1.8 litre, DOHC Intercooled turbo with all-wheel drive.
Gearbox and engine are in great condition, got the full fresh up by BMT in August 2003, and regular 4,000km interval servicing ever since.
From factory, the car has 132kW and 230Nm, and does 0-100 in just under 7 seconds.
I had the dump-pipe reworked and a custom 2.5" exhaust system fitted in June this year.
There was a bleed valve fitted by Dr Drift of BMT, but since the dump pipe was customised, it's only purpose has been to build boost smoother.
The intercooler, management, engine and almost everything else is stock.
The car has been meticulously maintained: regular servicing, only ever using optimax or bp ultimate petrol, always warmed up and cooled down even after delicate driving.
Modifications:
Dr. Drift bleed valve. Boost peaks at approx. @ 0.7 bar (aout 10.5 pounds).
Top Gun 8mm Ignition Leads.
Custom full respray, black with cherry pearl.
CD headunit
Custom door pods matched to stock upholstery to accomodate 6.5" splits.
Reupholstered armrest in black leather, also shift boot with red stitching.
Blue Faced Blitz iD boost gauge, measuring to 1.5bar.
Unfashionable Rims that came with the car, made by auto-moda of japan (14x6, multistud wheels)
Pod filter is on there too.
NGK Laser Platinum spark plugs put in the car approximately 12,500km's ago. (They last approx. 100,000km's)
Redline Lightweight Shockproof gear oil ($120/gallon, very helpful in protecting the gearbox)
GT-R model bonnet vents
Recent Tint-A-Car Formula 1 tint (99.9% UV protection)
Tough-arsed professionally installed 3 point immobiliser, yielding 2 ground connections. would require an experienced alarm system installer over a day to disarm. also includes unique alarming system with security code
Stock features:
3dr hatch
2-way electronic sunroof (tilt and slide)
4 wheel ABS
4 wheel drive, with viscous centre and rear differentials.
132kW and 230Nm, 0-100 in <7 seconds.
5 speed manual
1839cc dual overhead cam
Torque Split of 43% front and 57% to the rear (rear bias, less prone to understeer)
Weight: Approximately 1200kg
CR: 8.2:1
Spare passenger side headlight included, as well as stock airbox with hks panel filter, and stock boost solenoid.
Car will come with RWC and registration until June 2005.
In summary, fast little unique car with decent fuel economy, and a nifty paintjob.
I'm looking for about $13,500, but this is negotiable. (might consider a trade for a 250cc motorbike)
Call 0403472896 or email opitart@msn.com for more info.

the black pics are 2-3 weeks ago.. it depends on the angle you look at it, and a bit of sunlight helps too.
it hasn't been terribly sunny lately so it's been hard to capture the pearl in a photo.

If anyone is willing to pay a little more, these mazda's are damn awesome cars... The only thing it needs is maybe a set of 15 or 16 inch rims to suite.
Goodluck with sale.

very very true.. i'd given thought to 16s myself. 15's don't fill it out enough and 17's weigh too much
