1997 Mazda Astina 323 BA Hardtop

himynameisbunny · 01-12-2014, 12:00 PM

Hey guys,

My other half has recently given birth to a little bundle of noise, so I bought a new car that would be more suitable for the purposes of transporting said bundle. I chose a 6 MPS, and am very happy with it.

Unfortunately, that leaves old faithful sitting there unloved, and therefore she has to go.

If you feel like sifting through my posts to see some of its' history that's all good, but I will list it's details here.

Year: 1997
Make: Mazda
Model: 323 Astina BA Hardtop
VIN: JM0BA11P300203724
Rego: 24/03/2015
Odo: 233,xxx

The good:

Owned by my family since new
Serviced every 5,000kms (need to find service log though)
Mazdaspeed rear muffler
Work Nezart mesh wheels + Pirelli P5000 tyres
KYB shocks + RSR springs
Whiteline poly bushes all round (incl. caster bushes)
Whiteline camber bolts (~1.5deg neg front, 1.0 deg rear)
Whiteline rear sway bar
Whiteline front strut bar
New (20,000kms) strut tops + bump stops
Ford poly shifter bushings + ebay special short shift kit
MX-5 Nardi wheel
Kenwood head unit w/ aux input
Leather shift boot and handbrake boot
LED bulbs all round (save for headlights)
Clear front indicators
Jap-spec cupholder armrest

The bad:

Both front windows need new bushings
Tint on front drivers window has been scratched
Front drivers door trim has a tear
Paint chipping off bonnet
Likes eating oil - about half a sump every 5,000kms

Drove it for the first time in a while yesterday and it's still a hoot - much more go-kartish compared to the MPS.

Want to let it go for $1500 firm, given the amount of goodies that are on it. Located at 2228, NSW.

If you want to know more or are interested, just throw us a PM here.

Cheers guys.

WOW someone should buy this...

himynameisbunny · 02-12-2014, 02:01 PM

Yep till next March or so. Will be posting it up this arvo; didn't get around to it last night due to baby and other half wanting to do the Christmas decos and didn't take no for an answer

Mat you can attest to how good the ride/handling is with that spring and shock combo...they were yours after all

Bump, have added VIN and rego expiry date.

I have also posted a CarSales ad for it which I'll post the link up to shortly, although it's no different to my listing here really.

The missus is really onto me as it is taking up our one parking space, so if you're interested feel free to give me a bell!

Just remembered that I have a whole lot of parts for the car under the house at my parentals as well, for any AGT members they can pick them up with the car for the purchase price.

I believe I have:

Liberty/Legacy GT turbo 2-pot calipers
Folding mirror set
Fog light set (these were from a member here, can't remember who...) they have HID bulbs in them.
A set of mesh-style Speedy wheels with some tyres on them, but they're quite worn...
Mazdaspeed badge
All of the original suspension that came off the car

I will confirm tomorrow.

Bump, will take reasonable offers
