Re: putting a BPT into a V6 model car?

actually the only options i really care about are the rear disc brakes, and cruise control (i do a lot of travelling at night...CC makes it easy!!). The power windows and locks don't bother me. I like power mirrors however, i feel they are safer to have instead of having to reach over the car to adj...

Re: putting a BPT into a V6 model car?

So all mx3's have the same nice "recaro-made" seats?? i did not know that.<p>I still don't understand why you guys are trying to convince me to "just put a KLZE in". I have the BPT sitting in my garage, why would I waste the effort I put into getting my GTR motor, as well as the ...

Re: J-Spec BP, What year engine is it? (PICS)

They told you that is J-spec???? I'm not 100% positive but that engine has teh exact same stamping as my friend from NYC who bought a BP to swap into his 2nd gen protege. <p>According to the junkyard he bought it from, it was from a 96 ES Protege. ALthough it would be nearly impossible to tell if yo...

Re: What to look out for on a 95 Protege?

what do you mean "look out for"? You mean problems or what kind of specs it has?<p>The 95 DX has a 1.5 liter 92hp motor that has ZERO aftermarket support. I think it is pretty unfortunate that mazda decided to put this engine in the 2nd gen proteges b/c all of the ownwers I see who own the...

Re: Camber bolt confusion

the longer ones are the correct bolts...those other ones look like they wouldn't fit through the strut/knuckle hole and they are shorter.<p>But since I can't tell exactly how long these are, i'd suggest jacking up one end of your car, taking that wheel off and just holding the bolts up to the existi...
