Just some pics of my girls. :)

Here they are. They are 10 years apart, but tend to get along pretty well. I gave them both a bath this morning. I took the Probe out for the first time since buying the RX-8 when I took it to the spray and wash. On the way back I took it down a curvey road and as soon as I hit the first corner I instantly remembered why I kept it. The RX-8 is a better car in every way but the Probe just puts a huge smile on my face everytime I drive it. :D

Here they are, nice and clean. I know I just posted pics of the 8 but I enjoy taking pictures of it, and very much enjoy the pic of their asses so I thought I'd share.

It has the KLZE intake manifold. I shall be putting the KLZE cams in it shortly. I'm not worried about installing the KLZE heads or pistons though as most of the power of it comes from the intake manifold and cams.

Modifications to the Probe are:
Warm Air Intake
Resonated TP
AiR EvoS Muffler
KLZE Intake Manifold(Best Modification Ever!)
KLZE EPROM Chipped ECU
PRD Modified Distributor Cap
GM High Energy Ignitor
MSD Blaster SS Ignition Coil
KLZE Fuel Pressure Regulator
MBX Gauge Bezel
REVO Vaccum Gauge
REVO Air/Fuel Gauge
2000 Mazda 626 Rear Sway Bar
Pilot Fog Lights(not pictured, recently installed)
93 Probe GT Wheels in Graphite
Exedy Performance Clutch

It dyno'd at 153.7hp to the wheels and 145tq, roughly about 187hp at the crank. That's about 24 more than stock so I've been pleased with the mods I've done.

Nice, I had a klze power'd mx-3 about 6 years ago. It was a little monster. I love those engines too. Very nice sound and a good amount of torque to go with it. I do miss that car.

Very cool. I have always thought a MX-3 with a ZE would be a fun car. There are a few people on Probetalk.com with them.

I wish I'd have kept the Probe GT. I really regret selling it but didn't have an extra garage space. If that'd have not been the case, I could have both the PGT and the 8.

Nice pics.

I actually enjoy driving the PGT more now than before I bought the 8. After 75k miles of it being my only car, I kind of had a numbness to it. The extreme front biased center of gravity, the softness of the leather seats, and the feel of each individual tire were just kind of lost on me. It has a fresher feel now. And 30 mpg make it a decent car for all-purpose driving.

Nice collection. Thy styling of the 13+ year old Probe still looks pretty fresh.

Thanks! I'd like to get a 89-91 FC to add to it. MAYBE an FD, but I definitly want another FC. I used to have a 88, kinda wish I still had it.

I'm really surprised at how nicely the Probe GT has aged.

Nice pics.

Too bad Ford named them the "Probe"... What were they thinking?
Isn't the Probe front-wheel drive?
Before my ex-wife and I were married,
she had an 89 turbo (I think 89?) that could smoke the (front) tires...
The torque would turn the steering wheel out of your hands!
If I remember correctly it was built by Mitsubishi...?
