it is a very good car easy to fix if u are a mechanic. i fixed my own astina so i know. and even overhauled the carburetor.

hi bro.

wer is the shop around kl pj area for service astina?

going to buy 1 most probably.

and how much it cost to transplant the engine to B8?

It's a good car,go ahead for it if you can fork out more cash i suggest you go for the lantis instead. at least it looks more moden than astina. For parts you don need to worry since mazda can share parts with ford. Im driving a Ford Laser Lynx 1.8 2 door, 30% of the parts on my ford are from lantis after i met with an accident yeah, convert it with B8 engine

TS, so whats the verdict??? buy lah buy lah.....then post photos here.....!!! Astina and Lantis are quite good looking cars, especially those with B6/B8 engines are quite exciting to drive.....but too bad they are FF, no offense, 'cause i'm a FR guy, and someday i wanna own a Mazda 808 or a Ford Escort MK1, these 2 cars are in my list of most beatiful cars in the world

wat is FF???

how much B8 cost and wer to get it?

the car move with front tires.

i own a mazda astina 323 1.6 94'.. now the engine got really big problems..
i don't really know about cars..

is it ok to add turbo after i done repair the engine?
or should i change the engine first?

n how much difference are their performance?

please give me some opinions..

thanks.

such old car dont bother to rapair engine lah.most already done big mileage so just use it until its totally kong then plonk in more powerful engine.i suggest u get a lantis.u might get 10 to 15 yrs old car but sitting inside feels its more modern than wira.its one of few cars designed ahead of its time.the only problem with this car is it's frameless windows bushings.but the solutions are there.u just need to be more resourceful.

Astina is my dream car until i found my mazda gtx...

do you,did you own one?i had one lantis.converted to 2.0 v6 summore.its a damn good car.parts?it uses same oil filter as wira.knn airfilter available,no need to change.what else?not much.only 1 thing tho,i kept bursting the radiator.probably just because it's old and the plastic has gotten brittle.change to aluminum radiator,problem solved.

TS, forget the astina,just get the lantis.make sure get one with solid body.engine can change
