I was wondering where in calgary can you find blown motor cars or cars that have body damage and stuff. My friend and I have been looking really hard for a mazda mx-3 GS V6 model with a blown motor in order to swap a new one in it.

If anyone knows where you can buy cars like that.. would be much appreciated.

thanks alot.

ya but we dont want a car with frame damage.. too much work and not enough resources to fix that.

the ultimate would be a black mx-3 with under 200000kms and a a blown V6. my buddy wants to buy my KL-ZE so i'm trying to help him find a car to but it in

well the thing is that i already have a KL-ZE motor that was gonna be swapped into my car until i crashed it.. my buddy wants to "continue" my project so he wants a blown GS mx-3 and buy the engine off me.

I know that the the mazda 2.0L turbo engine is great but i already have the KL-ZE.. plus i know some guy who is willing to sell me his custom turbo system for the KL motor for RAELLY cheap (50% increase) so I would be looking at a 300hp motor :clap:

ya i know chris.. we were both suppose to get our engines installed at the same time so it was pretty cool cause we could have compared the two motors.. too bad i had to bend my car in half before i got to the shop :(

ya Vtek (i dunno how to spell his name) said that his car was just CRAZY fast.. gonna have to check it out one day.
