I guess I will be the first to say, welcome to the board. Nice to here there are more people out there with 2nd Gen pros. One question though. How do you have an LX with a 1.8 liter engine??

Canadian LX is the same as US ES models 1.8dohc and 4 wheel disc.
|
ok... so does the canadian ES have a 2.o liter??? lol, j/k.
Jason |

Don't worry, you won't be the only one in CPQ with a G2 Protege! :D Oz |
Thanks for your welcome everybody!
I hope to have time to get some good pics to post. Anyways, later this summer...;) The_OZ: Congrats! I'm happy you get 2nd gen and a 1.8 too, I guess.:D "Don't worry, you won't be the only one in CPQ with a G2 Protege!" Are you in the region too, I mean Quebec? |
And, by the way, how do you make those quotation? quote: ...
Thanks |

Hey!
For the 1.8 thing, check the sticker under your hood. You should see a 1.8 somewhere and 1839cc for displacement. How come your not welcome in the CPQ? It's all friendly people. The message board is mainly in french but don't bother about that, we mostly all understand and write in english too...I hope so!;) If you come see our board tuning section, I'm the moderator. Me, I'm in St-Laurent in the north west of Montreal. By the way, few of ours (11-12 members) are going to the Car-Fever in Napierville the 24 of june. If you're coming, come see us. I will introduce you to the group. I'll be easy to find, I'm the only 2nd gen in the club...until you join us!:) Look for a 96 LX dark blue Pro with Trophy 16" and a sticker of the club on the back window. I'll do a drag session in the morning but I'll park with my people after. See ya! |

Depending on the time and how long the meet will last, I might be able to make it. And you'll have to give me the address of Napierville. One thing though, I'm gonna feel like an idiot since the car is all stock...for now. I intend to leave it like that until I pay it off. Regards, Oz |
Check that link:
http://www.car-fever.com Raptor did give me a good answer earlier today when I checked my post. I love putting stuff on my car. Mostly at the shop but I get good price.;) I'm gonna feel like an idiot since the car is all stock...for now We're just a bunch of people who loves the Protege! So it doesn't matter, as long as you like your Pro(the way you want too!:D), this is what it's all about. :camaro: And I'm still paying my car but I'm too hurry to spirite my Pro! |
Originally posted by pro2ndgen Me too, if you have question, don't hesitate to ask in tuning.I'm not bad for writing and mecanic stuff.:)And it would be cool to have someone to share mods idea. There's cheap hp you can get, if you do a good tune-up...:evilgrin: I love putting stuff on my car. Mostly at the shop but I get good price.;) There's still some stock cars in the club too.

Oh yeah, I checked my engine block. BP-something-something. So, it's definitely a 1.8. I hope there are signs at Napierville to direct me to the club:) Regards, Oz |
