    Spacers question

    I have a stock '03 Protege ES with the stock 16" rims. I would like to get some spacers to push the wheels out a little and make them flush with the fender. What sizes, front and back, would I need to do this without pushing the wheels out too far and be at risk of snapping my studs?

    Cel p0455

    This code just popped up and I am wondering what it could be. When I looked up the code here it what I got, "This indicates a fuel vapor leak or lack of purge flow in the EVAP control system. It means a large leak has been detected." I have been having an abnormally low idle lately. What things...

    WTB: MSP or MP3 Stock Short Shifter

    Like the title says, I am looking for an MSP or MP3 stock short shifter. I think they are the same? Also may need the shift knob if the stock knob from my '03 ES does not fit. Thanks

    Rear brakes... what could be wrong?

    Did you try adjusting the allen bolt on the back of the caliper for the parking brake? This pulls the pad in and out to make sure that the pad is close enough to the rotor so that when you pull the parking brake it engages.

    Performance Alignment Help

    I also heard that a little toe in helps because it makes it easier to control and when you're going fast the natural force will push the tires outward.

    passenger side motor mount question

    I got the aftermarket one and did have a bolt through the middle. The stock does not and it will probably fit better and you shouldn't have to mess with it too much.

    passenger side motor mount question

    Pretty much just the bolts. Also you may need to get a board and a jack to put under the oil pan, be careful you could dent the pan, to push the engine up a little bit for it to line up easier. You just need to be patient and when you retighten the bolt connecting the piece from the actual...

    The motor mount is pretty easy to do if you have the tools. Took me about 45mins to install the MM mount.

    Help? blown mp3 motor? Need a replacement!

    He's a liar. It's the exact same engine besides the VTCS removed in the mp3. All you would have to do is take the intake manifold off the blown motor and put it on the new motor and you'd have the exact same thing that you had before you blew the motor.
