...and we like it because the Ford Probe looks a whole lot like a 240SX fastback. 2.5 liter v6 or 2.0 turbo, the Ford Probe GT is kind of an anemic slug but you can buy one today. Can the same be said for the GR Corolla? Doubt it. Buy a Ford Probe, be different, be unique, be the stanced out snowflake you always dreamed of being, tell people it's technically JDM because it's a collab with Mazda, whatever it takes man we're going up

YESS GOD FINALLY DELIVERED (I actually bought the red probe at 15:39 for 500$ only because I wanted something I could abuse . It runs and drives perfectly after new spark plugs and the 5spd feels decent also. And I have a foxbody gt and a 2013 gt so this is just for fun and that’s why I didn’t work an extra week at McDonald’s for a better one lol)

Hell yeah lads, I know this episode will bang!! A lot of these are shitboxes but I owned a Mazda MX-6 as my first car, was owned by a collector that added all the OEM JDM accessories on it, (J spec headlights and fogs, digital climate control, leather interior, dude even added a wireless charger in the console and extra usb ports) looked brand new and made 200 at the crank with a KLDE, exhaust and millenia MAF conversion, 5spd V6. Still the best sounding car I've owned. Was a blast to bomb it down my local windy roads during covid with no cops, no cars and cheap petrol everywhere. Easy as hell to park with 4 wheel steer, had a butterfly valve in the intake that gave a VTEC style crossover noise in high revs too. Honestly believe its the perfect first car for a young enthusiast, I miss that thing so much!
@SomeOne_86
@SomeOne_86 Год назад
My first car is a '93 626 which is the exact same chassis, even the owner's manual is the same haha. Just a 4 door version of the MX-6, however mine is a 1.8 FP lmao. I love the car (except the power) and if I can swap a KLDE into it, I'll keep it, but if I can't I'll probably sell it. I live in Europe and the laws in my country are very finnicky about engine swaps, so that will be the deciding factor unfortunately.

I had a Probe in the factory purple/blue colour flip paint when i was in High School here in Australia (97-99) and I fucking LOVE these cars. I put on GENUINE BBS LM's in 18's in 98, which was unheard of in Sydney at the time, and HORRENDOUSLY expensive, only to cut the springs to get it as low as possible and hit all the cruises back then whilst cranking the latest Skitz Mix on CD out of the factory speakers Good Fucking Times. Im constanlty flirting with the idea of picking up another one and building it to what i wanted back then but i have 3 90's Hondas that Im doing the same thing with hahahah They were sold new here and had been converted to RHD by the factory making them even rarer than in the US

Wow, memories. I had a 93 Probe GT and loved the car, loved the community. member of TXPOC for a long time. I blew the Auto trans with the AIT mod (gives you full power during 1-2 and 2-3 shift) and manual swapped it. gave me many years of problem free use. I was young and dumb and did a lot to it. gave great fuel milage and was one of the most comfortable cars I've had that I could put as many miles on at a time. I went back and forth from central Texas to SoCal 4-6 times a year. Wow, the memories i had in that car.

The 1993 ford probe GT with the 5/speed was actually faster than the SN95 GT of the same year. 15.5 quarter mile, and the mustang runs about the same. I've got one with a $500 Stainless steel borla exhaust and Cold air intake Only thing you need to watch out for is wiring issues and ignition problems. (which is why my wiring harness is out the car and the entire interior is sitting under my bed) Luckily i still live with my dad!

On that last one - the orange rear turn signals were only made on EU spec cars. In the states the rear turn signals for all second generation probes were red. (All first gens except 89 also - which had unique tail lights for that year only. ) Not saying it's legit, but there's evidence.

Orginal owner of a 1996 GT and it's funny you guys joking about a car the won sports car of the year in 1994 by Motor Trend. I was part of the street racing scene in the late 90's with this car and there is no way a 140hp V6 Mustang would beat a 164hp V6 Probe Gt...I know cause I raced them and V6 Camaro's along with 240sx none turbo RX-7..the Probe GT was a hell of a sports car with only the Honda Prelude giving it a run for its money in a straight line drag race but on the track the Probe would win even against the all wheel steering and SH models.

The flip up headlights are the Euro ones on that orange car, and the tail lights are Euro. Would be unlikely to parts swap. The American flip ups are pointy, Euros have an extra little piece in the front which you can see closed. So probably actually a Euro car.. There was a green one that claimed it had a KLZE, it did not have a KLZE. That is a stock KLDE with even the stock intake piping, airbox. Fully loaded, GT, manual, 93-94 (for all the options.) Lighted keyholes, heated mirrors, remote, factory sub, power antenna, inflatable bolster. Still weighs less than a notch Fox. 95+ they took the wiring out so it's much harder to add things. 96-97 They even took The "Probe" off the sideglass near the doors. The 4 cylinder 2nd gen ones share almost nothing with the GTs. Even the seats look similar but the GT seats you can stick your hand through. Oh and don't let a timing belt scare you, they're non-interference, 4 hours or so and it's done, no special tools.

The Probe is basically a Mazda MX-6, so if that auto one is a good price, with basic maintenance you probably won't have any issues. But do you have any desire to drive stick?
