xDJ DUBx's 03.5 Pure White LX-T

[J_Naoto]

you're on your own about the abs. only thing i know about that is the speedo sensor has its own gear and has a diff plug from non-abs

 

[xDJ DUBx]

bad winks.

 

[J_Naoto]

but you do have the whole car and you've already had your dash apart.. so i guess you can change out the wiring harness to have everything working perfectly

 

[xDJ DUBx]

I wouldn't mind tearing the p5 dash out, but I REALLY don't want to do it to my car again, that s*** was not fun.

 

[fishdonotbounce]

I have something that I'm looking at right now that's a good possibility. Is the transmission from the 00 ES (1.8L) the same as ours?

 

[BadBandar]

^^i think all the manual transmissions from a 98 protege on are the same.

 

[xDJ DUBx]

99, 98 is second gen

 

[J_Naoto]

yup

 

[fishdonotbounce]

Then something may happen very soon depending on how things go down. It would involve me taking out a loan but I'm pretty sure I could recoup all the money and then some.

 

[xDJ DUBx]

If you do a damn MT swap then I GOTTA boost, I can't let you beat me out like that

 

[J_Naoto]

yea get it together greg

 

[fishdonotbounce]

Haha, it would be a big risk. I'm looking at a car that has a bunch of goodies on it I could sell and recoup my money. The only problem is that there is a risk that the stuff won't sell especially since everyone is broke as hell lately.

 

[Scorch03]

I was thinking about buying a 1.8 parts car but I wasn't sure if the ECU was the same.

 

[fishdonotbounce]

I'm sure I would probably have to get the ECU but everything else should be the same right?

 

[Protege03ak46]

i doubt the ecu is the same in the 1.8 cars. but i bet alot of the suspension and interior is the same

 

[xJAZx]

the 1.8's shouldnt be the same, all the engine internals are different

 

[Protege03ak46]

well duh.

 

[Rockin03mp5]

not all p5's have abs

mine doesnt

i believe it came in a package deal with side airbags.

 

[Scorch03]

I didn't mean exactly the same, but close enough that i could have it re flashed with the MP3 maps.

I believe I have abs but not side airbags.
