Hey I'm in western WA and could get you setup as I've turbo swapped a few cars up here already. I've got a buddy who's going from turbo to KL, I can get you guys connected if you shoot me a message
Hello, I am looking for a Blazing yellow or Laser blue 2003.5 Mazdaspeed protege.
The most important factor is body and paint condition. Mechanic issues or clean shells ok, mostly concerned about the car being rust free and having a transferable title.
I am located in Washington state but am...
Yep that my buddy in Klamath falls. Nice dude, he's getting pretty far with the build too. There's 2 other Oregon guys in Medford and Corvallis. If you ever need parts or are looking to also turbo swap your car lmk, I do trips down to CA from time to time and can deliver
To my knowledge there are 3 dudes turbo swapping p5s in Oregon and I've supplied parts to all of them. A yellow p5, red and midnight blue p5. Plus I got a buddy who's assembling a built block I sold him to get his msp back up on the road. I told all these guys come up to Washington when the...
Not a today post but a this month post but whatever.
Did 2 trips from WA to CA this month, went to Canada to pick up some msp parts and then did 2 deliveries to 2 buddies in Oregon who are turbo swapping their p5s. Both got turbo parts but one also scored a racingbeat catback I pulled...
I dig the mods! I like the 505 air box and 1.8l coil pack setup under the cover. Always thought of doing that with my p5 and cover but I have accumulated so many of the stock style coils I just run them till they die. Since rebuilding the car as it sits though I havnt gone through any coils but...
Well since everyone's posting their lovely cars here's my current ones. I just picked up and this silver that I drove 1000 miles up from CA to WA and it made the trip just fine with a trans and other heavy parts in the car. Manual trans with all options except rack and compass mirror.
Blue...
Sure you could do all of that, but if sticking with the auto trans the difference in felt speed or power will be hardly noticeable. I'd say keep the auto trans car as the good looking daily (so maybe do suspension and wheels, tint etc for looks) and find another manual trans protege. It's the...
4psi would be pretty unnoticeable anyway. Just go manual trans swap and msp swap after. If your auto car has the triptonic shifter you will also need to swap the dash harness from a manual car which makes it a bit more tricky
