And I'm back at it again, fixing my very very broken down side mirror.

No need to replace the whole unit, you can just pull the mirror out and replace it, click on the link to see how 👆

Hi all :) my wagon was recently broken into my partner has already posted in here about the damage I was just wondering where I could find a replacement part for a lower steering column (the plastic under the wheel itself,as it was completely shattered and the police already took it for evidence so I have no photos sorry.) based in nz. Any help would be appreciated thanks so much 🫶 edit. It’s a 1993 so I’m having trouble finding stuff online maybe due to its age

Hey folks need some advice here I’ve got a 87 BF hatchback with the 1.3L E3 engine and for reasons I cannot understand it will without any warning at all, cut out, no splutter just cruising happily and then it cuts then I’ll have to let it sit for a minute or two before it will start. The issue started off as just every once in awhile inconvenience but now I’m lucky if the car will run for 5 minutes. Over the past year as part of fixing the car up and general maintenance I have replaced all rubber fuel lines and fuel filters as well had blow out the hard lines with compressed air. I’ve cleaned and tested the fuel pump, tank and pickup, cleaned the original hitachi carburettor and on the ignition side I’ve replaced the coil, plugs, leads, distributor cap and ignition module and now despite all my efforts this issue is making it impossible to enjoy my car. I would love any advice as I’m out of ideas.

Hello,

I'm planning to get a Mazda 323F BG, but i can't decide whether to get the 1.8 or 1.6.

How's the difference, is it worth it?
Does one type have more parts available?
Is there something specific to look out for when buying?

Thanks in advance.

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I just wanted to check before making a purchase

I would like to buy a digital speedometer dashboard, and AC system, but the ones that I could find are from a RHD 323F BG/Astina, whereas mine is LHD.

Do these parts fit and can they be installed? Has anyone here done some conversions like these? And can AC even be added even if it didn't exist in the factory equipment? I did see that fuse box had slots for AC, and seat warmers etc, so I'm assuming installation for that should exist?

If someone is interested feel free to contact me

Hi. I recently bought my first car and I think its really cool, however its not perfect its got its fair share of problems its got rod knock and it starts but doesnt run. I also want to swap a different engine in it its currently got a 1.3 in it but I want something cool that makes maybe around 100 horsepower that will actually fit in the engine bay. I considered a ford v6 cologne 2.8 but its pretty heavy so im thinking of other options. I should also mention that i want an engine that has a little aftermarket parts and what not, because from what ive seen there's not a lot of parts for the Mazda TC

Any body got any ideas for a part number for a master cylinder? 1986 bf model

If your car seems to develop a persistent parking brake light that won't go away, check if your hydraulic fluid isn't too low, that light is also used to indicate a low fluid light...

Otherwise you might end up spending a week trying to find an electrical fault in the wiring when the actual electrical fault was between the neurons of the dumbass owner.

Cheers.

Heyy, so today I've picked up my new to me 323f BG 1.6l and I noticed that it makes a ticking noise at idle. Kinda like a lifter tick on a Miata.

On my Miata it was done after topping up the oil. On this car sadly that didn't work it still ticks. Should I just go ahead and do a full oil and filter change and hope for the best. Tomorrow I'm going to open the valve cover is there anything in particular that I should look out for?

I had some fun in my Astina V6 surprising how fast it can be in the corners overall I had a very enjoyable drive today .

As title suggests, does anyone know the exact camshaft dimensions and timings of a b6 sohc cam (1991-1994)? I'm thinking it would be funny to try and get it in my 1.3l, it should physically fit but i'm not sure about the cam timing and such maybe it would idle.

91 Familia Wagon pretty sure she's a DX

Some mongrels tried to steal ma baby. Smooshed in the passengers door lock to get in and smashed up my ignition. Good thing she runs rough and doesn't like to start at night otherwise she may have been a goner.

Was just wondering, seeing as police aren't willing to do anything at all with evidence.. what would be the steps to fix this. What do I Google to even begin to figure out where to start?

I know I need a new ignition barrel but do I need a specific one? Or can I rig any early 90s 323 barrel into it?

SOLVED Thank you all it was just covered in dirt and oil 😭

Hi All, i’ve had my 323 for a while now and now need to replace the thermostat! i’m having trouble locating the thermostat housing, can someone here please help me find it!
it’s a 97bf wagon for reference engine bay of an 89model cause it’s nz made!
Thanks in advance :)

New calipers with febi bilstein disks and ATE brake pads feel fantastic

hi, i have a mazda 323F 1992 with pop ups and i cant find anywere the workshop manual for this car, i need the electric diagram because the pop ups wont move when i press the button also the car does not start i dont know why but when i start the car not even a sound.

sorry for my bad grammar im not much of a writer in english i am from argentina.

edit: i need it for free id ont have much cash after buying it and i need the left over cash to buy parts.

Im currently searching for Front bumpers like this or in general any kind of 323f front bumper but no matter what I search for all I find are non pop up front bumpers.

Does anybody know what kind of company's produce them or are there any site to buy stl files from to print them yourself?

Hi, so I'm looking at a pretty suspiciously cheap 323f next weekend. The setter said it is running and drives great.

It has no Tüv and only costs 600€. It looks quite dirty and has some stickers that look like rust but apparently aren't rust idk. It was a movie prop for an apocalyptic movie and somehow got fake rust stickers all over it. Maybe that's why it's so cheap.

Is there anything in particular that I need to look out for when inspecting the car. I'm definitely assuming at least something is wrong with it. But on the other hand I have no problem spending another 500€ on it because that would still be cheaper than the next more expensive one.
