that is actually easy, a guy got the cams from cork sport and poped them in, he said it was more agressive than the stockers.. u would have to use haltec ex6 to control the svt if you use the entire head..


Can they (corksport) get the cam gears as well?

Those are lookin' great Michael. Cell phone pics though? ;)

What are they and where'd you get 'em?

yeah, it's cell phone pics, but my sister got a digi cam for her birthday, so sometime this weekend im going to go shoot new pics. they are enkei or52's wrapped in pirelli p zero neros, and the tire size is 205/40/17(tires are too small for me, so im definitely getting 215/40's next time around). the wheels are 17X7.5. i thought they were going to be 17X7. they look alot better in person i think.
 
Thanks, I love the wheels too! I have a set of springs that I recently bought but I have been too busy with work/school to get to them yet.

they almost look like 17s

I agree it will be slick once lowered

which springs do you have?

Thanks, I bought a set of MSP springs because I want to see how a .75 inch drop looks and feels. I don't want to go too low because I take some back roads to work to avoid 695 (Baltimore beltway) and ground clearance is an issue. If I don't like the drop from those, I will look at tein springs.

I saw a protege with 17's of this wheel on, and they looked too big for my taste.
 
some pics from last weekends show i found on the web.....

like the sand like surface we were parked on??? i hate it. it was impossible to keep my car clean.......
 
thank you
it has abt 15 coats of meguires nxt wax.......

as much as i hate waxing i do love the shine.......:)
 
Yeah, wax is a PITA to put on, but looks sooooooo sexay afterwards!! If I had the patience to actually WAX my car and not use the car wash stuff that has wax in it, then I would wax wax the car more often. But..... I don't so I just wash and "wax".
 
honestly you should see it now, all dirtied up..... i dont have a show for a few weeks so instead of cleaning i am taking care of a few other issues...... normally i wash it every other day and wax it abt twice a week. i know i have no life during show season but oh well......

i have racingbeat springs. the drop isn't too bad. im not sure if the msp springs have the same drop though. i think the front will have a bigger gap than mine does unless that is for p5's only.

I did a lot of searching and I recall reading that putting msp springs on a stock protege sedan will give a .75 inch drop in front and back. What was your drop?
