Hi, i just bought a 2001 Mazda Protege with the 1.6L engine. unfortuantly the head is warped. i happen to have a 2.0L engine from a 2002 Mazda Protege and i'm wondering if the heads are interchangable. anybody know?

Im going to do an engine swap on my mazda and i was wondering if there is anything u have to change on the car to make a BP 1.8 engine work. My car is a Mazda Protege LX 1.5L stock with MT. Im asking for changes like ECU, wiring and stuff like that or can I use the same stuff for the BP 1.8 as...

can i swap the bumpers on both years? i need to replace my front bumper cover so i was looking at other years of mazdas and i noticed that the 08 have a cool looking lower centre grill than the 2006. if i can't change the bumper can i just change the grill? has anyone tried this? I've heard that...

have you done it your self? i lost my third gear recently and I'm wondering if there is anything i should look out for while dropping mine. i got a good price on a m/t rebuilt with less then 50,000 km. people i know tell me just to replace the syncro or the fork but i figured that i have to take...

I'm new here and have a 2003.5 MSP with 157k miles and. it smokes pretty bad every morning thick white smoke so I'm wondering I found a 2000 jdm fs-de 626 motor and was wondering if it would swap into my car easily.

So I figured I'm far enough along to warrant a build thread, or as I prefer another "protege KL swap support thread". Heres what I got so far: 02 pro5, already has coilovers, wheels, awesome stereo, and the cruise control and A/C deleted: KL engine from a 96 OBD2 ford probe, hence "Probege"...

Hi, While driving 70 mph at night, my serpentine belt went out on my '03 Protege LX automatic 2.0, 4 cylinder. I slowly lost power due to the alternator not being charged and the water pump stopped pumping thus I overheated. I've taken my car around to a few shops and they all tell me to dump...

Hi. New member here with a noob question. Buddy bought aftermarket lights and i have the chance to buy his. Heres the catch, he has an 04 maz3, but i have a protege5. Any chance that ill be able to swap these or would it be impossible? Reason for wanting them, id like to build my own projector...

I have an 03 MSP that I'm parting out and debating removing the complete ABS setup. Not sure if it's a common option or if there would even be a market since the engine harness is part of it (harness is part of the turbo kit). Does a non-ABS car have the connector for the ABS pump? Thanks guys.

Just bought a 2005 GT with some engine problems and high km and I want to put the 2.0 engine and trans in the car. I can get them both for $500 with 130K on them so that's why I want to go that route. Since this is my first Mazda I don't know anything about what is interchangeable so any advise...

I learned to drive in my mom's 1992 BG sedan. It was a great car to my family, many memories and road trips, and when my mom finally replaced it in 2005 I took it over. I moved to AZ from MT and replaced the 13" 165 series wheels with 205/40/17 on cheezy alloys. It looked goofy without being...

Purchased the rear spindles, rotors, calipers, e-brake cables, brake lines, front spindles, rotors, calipers and rear sway bar from a member on another forum. The parts came off a 1995 Protege ES and will be going on my 1998 Protege LX sometime this spring or early summer after I clean them up a...

Ever see a driver's seat that's sunken and a bit worn while the passenger and back seats are pristine because that guy has few friends? Well, I'm "that guy." :-D Question: Is it possible to swap the two front seats if you don't have airbags in them? I know the recline controls would be on...

hi i have a 1990 mx5 miata 1.6 and i know where i can find a 02 miata but its been rolled and the engine is pretty jacked. i am having some problems finding a driveshaft for mine and was wondering if the overall length from the rear of the engine to the pumpkin is the same for the 90 and the 02...

Hey guys. I have a 2005 Mazda 3 and the bottom row of controls on my single CD player aren't working anymore. I'm looking at getting a replacement on eBay but I am wondering if a 6-disc will work with my car considering it didn't come with a 6-disc from the factory. Will it bolt up exactly the...

hey guys, well i finally blew the motor in my 2003 protege lx, and i've decided that i'm done with the FS-DE. so why not go KLZE, right? i got real lucky and found an mx-3 with a fresh KLZE install (less than 500 miles). It's got a clutch masters kevlar clutch, resurfaced mx-3 FW, stainless...
