hey guys, a few weeks ago i noticed a small problem that has now put my protege into the shop. what happened was i turned the car on and noticed a small hissing and when i turned the wheel alot of noise comming from my engine bay, i recognized the noise came from the power steering pump, and the...

the motors vibrates alot when you accel hard, especially in 1st gear when your going for the redline. The whole car shouldnt vibrate unless your exagerating a bit, however dont quote me but maybe you have a cracked motormount.....thats what i cant think of.

nono yours deff. serves a better purpose then the slip ons, just i think that the slip-on's dont try and make it look stock. like the wheelskins looks like your trying to make it a oem look or aftermarket. but i feel it dosnt do that. i dont mean to start a fight or get u upset but its just not...

if your replacing your motor mounts go with the AWR Racing mounts. Anyway i say stick with the 1.8L engine cause its in the middle of the 2 other engines and in most people opinion it is the stronger than the 2.0 and has more power output potential than the 1.6 and mostly all parts that fit the...

no offense but that does look pretty cheap. Like it was meant to be there just dosnt fit. I would of just gotten a wheel cover from a local auto parts store. they look fine and they do serve a purpose.

yeah i dont have a battery hold down bracket :) dont know what happened to it

i have to check the wattage on that i think its 60/65 Watts. But the wiring harness is the Nokya harness. Picture http://www.spwusa.com/nokya/images/halogens/harness.jpg It takes like 10 minutes a light to properly rig up. The lights i had that burnt through were the Super White Xe 4200k...

Ok its been a few months since i installed my hyper white lights, now yesterday i started having problems. At night my driver side light went out, i wiggled it, went back on. Then over the next few times they worked or i just hadda wiggle them to get them on. However today they were totally out...

your car looks mad nice, there is alot of red on it, but thats your style. I think it looks good. The only thing i didnt like and always tell u to change is to get the red off the rear emblems. other than that its mad nice and the finished product will make it all pretty sweet.

hahaha nice stories, i was trying to driving down this block thats a loop, and it has quick turns, so i press the breaks, and all of a sudden i get a lock up. so now i got nothing left to do but hold the breaks and try and spin the car out towards a lil section no1 is parked. the pro decided to...

still waiting for snow so i can have some fun....

my parents just bought a 2006 BMW 330XI, phenominal in snow and street. But i drive a protege so that has no affect on me. Yeah but im still going to try out a parking lot thing if cops bother me ill just break down and cry and make up a story of how my life sucks.

hahaha, nice replies, well its just hard to find a quiet street around me, living in nyc isnt the easiest cause everyplace you can pull something like this off a cop is hiding. they may understand a parking lot drift session but no toleration on the street no mater what the time. this weekend i...

i pulled the e-brake a few times already on desolate roads at 1:30am, very fun till my car faced the opposite way and then turned around to face foward again. around me right now we had sheets of ice everywhere, i really hate it. I feel bad for rwd cars right now

Thanks, i guess im going to try whatever i can. if the cops werent such big :insert bad word: around here, i would go into an empty parking lot and try some stuff ya know. oh well, ill just take it really easy.
