Calling all you 3rd Gen Sedan Owners

I'm currently working on a webpage dedicated to the 3rd Gen 2.0L Sedans. It seems that Mp3 owners have their supporters, as well as the P5 owners. But i really don't see too much in regards dedicated to 2.0L Sedan owners. I'm trying to make everything in my website 2.0L Sedan specific, although much of it will relate to fellow P5 and MP3 owners. I'm trying to make this website a sort of bible for 3rd Gen Sedan owners with the 2.0L FS-DE. I will also like all you 3rd Gen Sedan Owners to send me pics of your Proteges with a list of all your mods. P5 and MP3 pictures are also welcome just please make sure you give me a mod list. I plan to have a Aftermarket Guide As it Relates to 2.0L 3rd Gen.
I also am working on a compilation of tech articles and how to's.
Email is wesleeptheylive1@aol.com I also would like input from you guys on what should be on the site, suggestions, etc. I also plan on putting the shop manual on there but someone pointed out to me Mazda might give me **** for it. The manual has no copyright so i'm just wondering if someone could clarify that for me. Thanks in advance for any input.

sounds great. lots of work too.. but it's worth it

about Mazda giving you crap. well, put on the site "only those who own this manual may view it online", which is similar to the disclaimers on ROMs (you can only play if you have the original arcade game). since there is no "official" copyright, it will protect ur *** if anything.

i will write my stuff up and send it ya

Please do take this personally The Man but your sarcasm would really get you beat down if you lived on my block..a simple yeah wesleeptheylive there is copyright look at it right here would have sufficed..but anyway Please by all means guys send them pics and specs! first second and third gens alike. I'm just creating this website cuz i feel there is a bit of neglect for the Non P5 and Non Mp3 Vehicles. So i would feel kinda ignorant not including other proteges in it. The faq does cover alot but like i said I'm looking to make it so a 3rd Gen 2.0L sedan owner has a good source of information as the majority of Protege's presented on these sites are P5's and MP3.... The photo Gallery however i would love to see variety as i feel Protege Tuners are very unique in that we work hard to make our cars look good due to lack of aftermarket support.

Don't worry about it, wesleeptheylive. You'll get a measure of 1980s-style dickweed responses on this site, a certain je ne sais *******, if you will. But this is overshadowed by a lot of cool people and good information. Unfortunately I haven't done much to my car, a 2002 silver LX auto (just K&N panel filter). When I do anything, I will send you pics/info.

P.S. "Put the glasses on!!" (Piper)
