Sold the Protege and got This!!!!!

[Drake13]

2004 WRX Sti 300 HP 300 Torque AWD.

As many of you who know me i've had my protege since 02 and modded it heavely. Just as a heads up i'll be selling my SR Motorsport Cams and Cam Gears but will not accept any dips until the proper pics are submitted. I look to doing it sometime Sunday morning since i'll be going to Nopi this weekend (shocked).

They are certainly a fun ride, enjoy it.

A tip from experience, when you take your first hard turn from a stop....TAKE IT EASY. i ended up doing a full 360 makinga Uturn and was stairing at oncoming traffic. Funny stuff

I so much more enjoy the 04/05's look

Ya the handling on this thing is tight as hell! I thought my mazda hand some great handling .

it does for an econobox. For $30K the STi had damn well better handle better.

lol nice ride man! looks awesome. do you mind telling how much you paid and miles??

 

[jomoyo069]

how much did you get for the protege?

 

[Drake13]

I traded my protege in with 112k miles for 5k and my 06 ZZR 600 sport bike for 5k as well. I paided 22,500 with 37k miles on it. It has a 2 year 25600 mile warrenty from the date (today) i bought it. It covers everything.. AWD turbo engine ect..

Its fun as hell to drive. I already smoked a S2K and a Trans AM with minor mods.. I just walked away from all of them.

The car came with a blow off valve (don't know what kind) and a Turbo CAI.. it really screams. I like not having exhaust on it.. nice for once in a while not to hear nothing but WWWHHAAAAAAA all the damn time. Its very quite and all you hear is the turbo and when I get on it.. PPSSHHH!

 

[altspace]

Very nice. I considered one as well. Enjoy and be safe.

Ya I got to get use to all the power.. its very different going from a front wheel drive 136whp protege to a 300hp car.. I think I can handle it.. incase anyone is wondering about insurance I pay 169 with full coverage thru state farm.

thats a good deal for the insurance.

i pay $107 a month for full coverage for my speed. i'm only 20 yrs old.

We might not give you that chance. (nana) Maybe we can do a little run...just to check the old Protege...

Ya its actually going to drop about 25 bucks in the next week after I add rental insurance, move to another town and take a course state farm offers that gives 15% off.. So being 22 with 150 insurance on a STi.. sounds good to me

hahaha ya i think we can do that. If you can take the STi i'll give you some mad kudos

Sweet car man. With aftermarket exhausts, those things sound SO mean!

[djarkitek]

nice upgrade, good to see you today! i want your cams! that's about the only thing left to have every n/a mod i can get without management.

 

[Black_Protege_5]

Nice upgrade. But I would def put that stock intake and bov back on.
