I've had a 2002 Pro5 for a couple of years, and am debating what do to next. The current car has 245k, but 110k on the engine, and the clutch and suspension were replaced a couple years ago. The body still feels solid, and a Northwest car, so minimal rust. Looking to replace the brakes, front seats, and paint the car, after that, ?
My budget is $6k - $8k, and am looking at
A) Sell the car for whatever, and buy a mid-Oughts MazdaSpeed3.
B) Swap a MazdaSpeed powerpack (engine/trans) into the Pro5. Would likely need some mods and suspension upgrades.
C) Replace the transmission, and upgrade the engine with a turbo kit.
Thoughts?
