So as I wrap up the build, in which I struck for forged internals and more boost - now I'm stumped as what I can pull in the quarter-mile. I will be running slicks up front, I have a quaiffe LSD for the PGT in my trans, 4.10 gearing, and will be running around 16 psi from the turbo setup. I'm...

What's your take on this? I do believe slicks would provide the ultimate in traction, but DR's would provide just enough slip as to not break the axles and still keep good contact. Anyone with extensive knowledge of this? I'm looking at what size wheels to fit to what size tires - whether they...

I'm hearing plenty of front end clunks and thuds - funny thing is I do not presently have a front swaybar so it can't be the endlinks. I guess my question is this - what else makes those clunk sounds? I've replaced both lca's (and thus new balljoints). I have not replaced the tophats on my...

well - as much fun as it was running these springs - I've outgrown them. They were the perfect drop for my 2002 protege5 (fits 99-03 proteges), not stiff but not bouncy either like a ricer setup. These springs have about 20k miles on them, the Tokico HP blues (fronts only) have only about 6k...

Anyone had these yet? I'm looking at them as a suitable replacement for my S-Tech's and Tokico blues setup I currently run. The main reason I'm opting for new springs - the front end is diving now that the struts/springs have had time to settle. Plus - it doesn't ride like a sporty car any...

What size are our front strut mounts? Meaning - what are the measurements from top/bottom - side/side - and bolt/stud spacing? 5" x 5" for the plate? What's the stud spacing? (I'm at my cubicle and cannot check right now or for a few hours at that).

lol....nevermind. Seems this hit some people in a soft spot...

I've been talking to Rupewrecht - and he's got some sweet deals on things that I NEVER see this side of the pond. I was looking at getting some different seats - something unique here - something noone in this area has....then I stumbled upon these: They're 80k Yen as it stands....may go...

I'm looking for a set of someone's front (by radiator) and rear (below firewall on subframe) protege/protege5/msp motor mounts. THey must fit the BJ platform (1999-2003.5). Doesn't matter how torn the rubber is - just need to have the mount in tact and the steel dowel that the bolt goes...

It saddens me to have to relay this. Lastnight a dear friend and colleague lost his wife. She caught the flu, and it in turn gave her pneumonia. She is succeeded by her and Tim's 7 children - which she was a fulltime teacher for in a homeschooling program. I don't know if ya'll are prayin'...

Found this on Speedhunters.com.....and loved every bit of the article. and the powerplant - bone-stock LS1. Not to mention - the entire rest of the C5 suspension and driveline. More..... THE DRIFT TRUCK - Speedhunters this is right up my alley (weird combo's doing what they're NOT...

I saw this and thought I'd share it......badass!

As many of you may remember - previously this year my son was rewarded with all his hard work and effort that went into his Track and Field - he went to the Junior Olympics in Baltimore, MD. He did quite well and came home with plenty of bling to prove it. Now.....he's at it again! This time...

It's not p5 related, but I don't feel like sharing with the rest of the board.....just my p5'ers. Here's what I was working on today - it's a 113 ci Ultima Chopper. 145 horsepower worth of 250 tire rippin, wheelie poppin, get the f*ck down the road - fun! I'm going back through the ol' girl...

To all my Mazda family members - it's with great respect that I announce that my son is going to be attending the 2012 USA Track and Field Association's Junior Olympics in Maryland! This is his first year in track, and has taken hold of his abilities and pushed himself harder than ever before...
