Salutations Fellow Pittspeeders! My name is Riley Webb and I live in the airport area, AKA Moon Township. I figured i was getting more serious with my cars so i may as well get serious with others that are too! My first car i still have is for sale, its a 98 Cavalier with basically every bolt-on you can do to the 2200 and is still slow as balls. And my new car is a nice change of pace, shes an 88 Mazda 323 GTX; turbo AWD. Well thats all for now kiddies, have a fast day!

Welcome to the board. Pics of the GTX? I had a white 323 that had more money in the suspension than the car was worth.

You can find 6 pics of the car at the following link. [http://www.sturtevant.com/323gtx/fs\_faber/index.html](http://www.sturtevant.com/323gtx/fs_faber/index.html)  
and you can see pics of a 323 GTX engine bay at this one. Not mine, though almost identical.  
[http://sturtevant.com/323GTX/fs\_calebgross/](http://sturtevant.com/323GTX/fs_calebgross/)  
And yea, the tranny is the very weak link along with the axles, ive already had to replace the clutch master cylinder and i need a new clutch now on a tranny with only 30K on it!
