Around 1995, or the days long before the Mazda 3 existed, a friend managed to convince his father to buy for him a newer car for him to run around to college and back. Lots of excuses were given from the supposedly unreliability of his old car to

Wow nice article, didn't know the Mazda's tuning arm already existed then.

 

From the picture it looks like it share the same frame with the Ford Laser TX3. With a 1.8l turbo, the TX3 was also a pocket rocket in it's own right.

 

These cars of the early to mid 90's go through some of the best technical advancements in engine technology. From a mere 8 valve SOHC carburated engine to 12valves then 16valves with Twin Cam and EFI.

 

Too bad I was too young and too poor to enjoy these cars in flesh during those time..

    A right-handers world

    I was mid-way through a bike ride in Ladahk, feeling the ache in my right hand, when a thought occurred to me: “Huh, how come the throttle is always on the right side of all bikes?”  Statistically, about 90% of people in the world are right-handed. Full disclosure: I am right-handed, part of this largely ignorant majority.  And if you think about it, some things are designed clearly with that in mind.  Throttle on a motorcycle? Right hand. Accelerator pedal in a car? Right f

    My inexplicable attraction to instant food

    Ready-to-eat microwaveable meals, instant noodles, plane food - these aren't typically the kinds of foods that people will spring for when given a choice. But for some reason, I actually enjoy eating foods like that, and would even find myself craving for them at times. I know, most of you would say it's the salt, seasoning, MSG, sugar and all the unhealthy flavourings that I'm hooked to. And you might be right - but I think it's more than that; there's something about eati
