Car: 1988 Mazda 323 SE Hatchback

Engine: 1.6l I.4, 82 hp or so...
Transmition: 4 Speed automatic with overdrive
Brakes: Discs up front, drums in back.

Mods: 323LX rims, seats, noise dampening, other LX stuff.

What I like about it: Cheap to operate, as reliable as the sun going up, always starts, runs mint, looks mint(minus slightly faded paint, warn SE stickers(OE stuff, I don't put stickers on it), and other minor stuff), goes in any weather, steers like a gocart, very responsive, and fun to drive.

What I don't like: Needs more power, 5 speed would help, wish it was a GTX...

What I want for my car: 626GT wheels, new tires(the current Bridgestone Taranzas have been on it for 6 years atleast, they aren't too good), factory Mazda Equilizer, place for the equilizer(duh! you'd think that they woulda had a place for it but no), dash cluster with tach, that's about it.
