Hello everyone. I'm new to this site and new to Mazdas. I was hoping someone out there could help me out with something. I'm currently looking at a 1993 323 hatchback. It's a really nice little car, the body is nearly mint, the engine runs like a top, lots of new parts, and low mileage to boot (128,000 Km's). All this is great except the only really major repair I can find that it needs is the rear cross member, or "K" frame (not sure what it's called on these cars), is rusted BADLY and would need to be replaced before inspection. I havent had much luck sourcing one online, or even finding much info about it. I can get the car for next to nothing price wise, so I'll have some money to throw at it for repairs, but I'm not sure if it's too much to bother. Any input anyone?

 

Get one at either a dealership and believe me it's going to cost you an arm and a leg. Or just call around to a few salvage yards. They will more than likley have one in stock and it will be a hell of alot easier on your wallet.
