Spec -V Falls Hard to the Protege5

[Fin]

As opinions seem to be rampant around here, let me offer an educated one: I say this because I test drove a SPEC-V and liked it a lot. It was very nice to drive and VERY quick - altogether a finely built Japanese automobile, Much like my protege (minus the quick at the moment, I'm afraid). If you're gonna slam a car - slam a domestic! BTW congats on your race, good kill...

Why slam any car at all?

Nope, I wish! I just like the 88-91 M3. I sell BMW parts and I'm in the market to purchase a 84-91 BMW 3 series. A M3 would be nice but very expansive to repair. The 325 can be builtup to be as fast and manuverable as a M3. Hey bmidd have you done any mods to your Spec? Are you on www.thevboard.com or www.b15sentra.net ?

i belong to both with this same name.

i've done b/s removal, k/s ground, hs header and cai, mossy exhaust and got 9.66 last week, it's getting better but i still need motor mounts, i lose a couple lengths on the line from wheel hop and have to try to chase them back down. i get beat by cars i beat from a roll, kinda sucks but then again it isn't a drag car.

My 2 cars are stock at this time. I have plans for the P5 which will be getting the Mazdaspeed exhaust and the SE-R will be getting the whole NISMO treatment soon.
