Hi from France!
 
14 Attachment(s)
Hi all,:wavey:

I'm Régis, a happy owner of a 1992 Mazda Mx-5.
I want to know more about my cars (and others) and share knowledge with you.

I plan to derust it :hs: and in the futur put some respiratory aids to it:D

I also have à Citroën AX, a little hatch back fwd with now around 130 hp for around 800 kg.
Nice pocket rocket!

I share with my father his old family car, a Ford Taunus (Cortina on AUS and UK market) in which I plan to put a Cosworth V6 in it.
It also need to be derusted too.

I was a member of the Microjoule Team (world record of fuel consumption) and a technician in "Engine breathing" for the car maker Renault in the south of Paris.
I worked on the camshaft of this engine

Enought talk, there's some pictures of my pride and joy (almost)

and its engine (1.6l 4 cylinder, "pinto" engine, 88 hp din @ 5700 rpm, bore x stroke => 88mm X 66mm (quite racy isn't it)
Exhaust manifold is genuine

Welcome to the site! Miata looks good, burger box looks like a riot, Taunus looks like a dog (tee hee). We've got some great info here. Enjoy!

i thought all cars in france were white like their flag

Regis_92N 11-20-2013 02:48 PM

Hi,

Exactly, here Na's were sold in White or Red.

Mine is originaly from Belgium, but it was a limited Black edition.

So it's equiped with tan leather, VLSD, Rear subframe reinforcement, no electric windows, no central locking, no power assisted steering.

So, perfect for me :)

Hi turbofan,

sorry I don't understand the joke :confused:

What the meaning of "Hazing"?

turbofan 11-20-2013 02:59 PM

Don't worry about the joke. Hazing is basically giving someone a hard time because they're new. You won't get as much of that since they tend to go easy on people for whom English is not their first language.

Regis_92N 11-20-2013 03:00 PM

Ok thanks for my education ;)

No problem I have nothing to prove ... but lot to learn
