Whats Your MP5 Wish List

[rheeric]

I just bought a brand new 2003 Mazda Protege5. I want to do some exterior and interior mods on it and possibly some engine mods. I am cursious as to what everyones DREAM mods would be to an MP5. Feel free to post also what you have already done and a link to some jpegs of your mods.

My one problem for me and a FANTASY wish is that I could have bought a stick!!!! Yes I know!!!! No need to dog me...LOL. I had to drive 65 miles to a mazda dealer and they only had 3 left and all automatics!!!!

But let me know. I want to find out other opinions on awesome and clean mods...I want it to at least look SICK even if it is an automatic....

Thanks for future posts to this.

Welcome to the club.

I'm having a great time fixing my P5 up and I'm sure you'll find a wealth of information here so you can do the same!

Here's a LINK to my CarDomain site if you're interested in seeing what I've done to my car. (drinks)

Welcome,

For me now... I'm looking at the Buddy Club2 Body Kit and a CF hood.

May I asked what you paid and where are you located?

A friend is looking for a P5 automatic as well.

My wish list would be:

Perfromance Mods:
Forged Internals, FMIC, and a Stage 3 clutch & flywheel

Exterior Mods:
A full body kit..that doesn't look like the stock p5 body kit (AKA Wings West)!

Thanks for the welcomes everyone. I am trying to find the best body kit, that suits my eyes. I think the stock looks of the 2003 Protege5 is like way awesome. If I really did not want to do anything to it it would look ready to go as it was. Mazda did about an awesome job on these stock.
I paid 19625-the 2500 cash rebate minus a trade in. So the actual car was what? 17125. Not too bad. Worth paying because I got a 100K warranty on it!!!!

 

[xxmikkoxx]

thats quite a bit of money!! i had no trade and 2000 cash back like 5 months ago got it for 14,200 ish fully loaded minus ABS package ~>(03.5)

 

[rheeric]

Yeah mine is 3.5 with cargo net, moonroof deflector, ABS package, AT4 transmission. What they did was give me and extra 4500 for my trade in so that it would pay off more on the payoff. It all kinda comes out to be the same. Well it was like 12800 or something like that.

 

[rheeric]

Wait, I take that back, I do not have the ABS.... that package comes with side air bags or something doesn't it? I dont have that

 

[hellcat]

I would have to say stronger pistons and rods etc (forged internals) and to top it off a Hiboost turbo kit. With all the appropriate gauges and all that fun stuff of course.

 

[RaiderMS3]

Welcome, and enjoy your MP5! I would love the Buddclub2 kit. Kartboy bushings and shifter, reat strut brace, and a Mazdaspeed exhaust are on my wishlist. I wish I could get them all, that is.

I have not done a whole lot to my commuter, as you can see by my sig. Just have fun with it, that is all I can recommend!

 

[Midnight22]

what i would want? adjustable rally suspension, full roll cage, turbo kit, AWD conversion, brand spankin new engine made specifically for boost (rods, pistons, cranks, stronger sidewalls) FMIC, GT-4 style hood, racing seats, short shifter, lightweight 17's with race rubber or rally rubber, radar jammer and laser jammer

hehe, thats just a small list of what i want...

 

[Mike R]

AWR header, Tokico Illuminas, AWR 19mm rear sway bar, Cams, cam gears, repair of the damage from the drunk that rear ended me, a decent windshield, repaint ofthe whole car with some paint that won't chip as easily. And a nice garage to put it in!

 

[fLyPiNoY7]

intake, exhaust (already fulfilled), front speakers, maybe headers, a bit of lowering, sway bars, auto to manual tranny conversion, forged internals, turbo, etc...

 

[FlannelBoy711]

Beef up my tranny, Turbo, TEIN Coil-Over Damper Kit, 15" Rota Slipstreams Gloss Black, Carbon Fiber hood, JIC Titanium Exhaust, JIC reclinable seats, Clifford RS-3 Alarm, Wofford Racing Header, Injen CAI, and the list goes on.......
