Mazda 626 GTX
| | Model of the car: | Mazda 626 GTX | | | General comments: | It was my 2nd car. My first car was a 1990 VW Jetta. Handling was good but Jetta lacked the power. The moment I took the GTX 626 for a test drive I decided to buy it. It was leaking oil.. it was the pressure switch.. $10.00 . Boy did this car pull. The turbo kicks in after 2500 rpm.. and in all gears it just pulls till 6000 rpm. It had 16" wheels... big difference...I put K&F, and free flowing mufler. I used to burn rubber on 3rd. Raced it against 1990 audi 200 turbos and 1996 A4 2.8... smoked them... took it upto 195 km.. steady as a rock in a stright line. The cornerings were sloppy at high speed... I bought it when it was 193K and sold it at 265K.
Still miss the turbo. I believe it was the best 626 mazda ever made. Pulled better than my 325. Current modle of 626 sucks.. mada should bring those GTs back again. | | | What things have gone wrong with the car: | expensive parts, cornering, | | | Previous car: | 1990 Jetta , 1885 325 |
