i only want to do the throttle body if i can do the intake manifold at the same time. as for weight reduction, i have taken out the a/c and everything to do with that, same with the power steering, took out cruise control, stripped all of the sound deadening material from under the carpet (its...

does anyone think it would be worth replacing the throttle body if you have high compression and the other mods in my sig? i was even thinking port matching the intake manifold too, what do you guys think about that?

i was driving along quite briskly with a silver p5 with exhaust and i was wondering if he is on this board. it was in or near wrightstown, pennsylvania, on pineville road. if you are on this board holla back.

you should also lube where the pads rest, and also the back of the pads isn't a bad idea either

i hate to be a negative nancy but i do believe it says in the protege manual NEVER TOW ANYTHING WITH YOUR MAZDA

i don't about anywhere else but coasting with your car in nuetral is illegal in pennsylvania because you can't acclerate if confronted with an emergency situation. and you say "but i can shift quickly into gear and get out of there" doesn't always happen that way. i am not trying to be an arse...

compression i have the Japanese spec intake and exhaust cams, along with 10.7:1 compression and the car runs great. with all of my mods i get a consistent 28-30mpg city or highway mileage. i have not gotten it tuned yet do to funds, but eventually it will come along. also i have had my head shaved...

i removed everything to do with the a/c, everything to do with the power steering, the back seats, spare, jack, all the sound insulation underneath the carpet, and a few pounds here and there by installing the lighter flywheel and crank pulley and cruise control stuff

i would like to think i have a chance at the fastest N/A p5. i haven't taken it to the track recently but i have a bunch of mods as you can see in my sig.

yeah, it sure seems that way, but i am sticking N/A i am going to do everything i can to make this car fast. i think i might go with intake manifold, throttle body, cam gears, and the other two pullies. i dunno what first though. all i know is i want to go fast

can't go turbo, high compresion pistons won't allow that. i was thinking of mods more along the lines of tire burning fun

i have a 2002 p5 with a bunch of mods (listed in signature) and i need ideas of what to do next performance wise i.e. go faster. i as thinking throttle body and intake manifold, but i get the feeling from reading the forums that those two mods are worthless unless you have forced induction. any...

no, thats ok, i have dibs on a hood and i just need to know how much you all think i should pay for it

i have the option of getting another hood for my protege5. i was wondering how much all of you think i should pay for it. i am going to be molding a functional hood scoop into it, and would just like to not have to take my current hood off until the other hood is ready to go on

it is a replacement gauge cluster, it could possibly be off, but damn, the thrill of going that fast

it sure as hell felt like it has a limiter, because i was going 133 and still had 800-900 rpm's left to go

i am not sure if it has been said before but the p5 has a top speed limiter at 132-133mph. i was doing a top speed run and the p5 hit fuel cutoff or the limiter at 132-133

i work at a repair shop, and one of our customers just got a brand spanking new rx-8. not sure what color or anything, but it was an auto since the i know for a fact the customer can't drive stick. it had every option you could possibly get on the thing and what does she do? she pulls out in...

acidbbg, how sure are you about needing a computer? i saw that linuxracer mentioned you could run slightly bigger injectors and be ok

is there any consensus as to how big of an injector i can go to over stock and not need a computer to control them?
