if u've got a 1.6l clap your hands!
 

hi all!:)
i'm just wondering how many regulars to this board drive 1.6ers..
so if you've got the baby ge' put your hands up and tell us what mods u've done!!:cool: :cool:

I have the 1.6.

Mods: None.

(Yes, at times it is slow as hell!)

1.6L's of pure power. Did you say 'at times'? Must not be the same 1.6L I have, lol. Pictures and details of mods on my site.

Now I wouldn't say my 1.6L is slow, but she is a little underdeveloped right now. All stock for now but that shall change soon as I have some time to put the wrench time in.

i havent done anything to the exterior yet mostly the interior, alot of momo mods exept the sparco seats

clap.....clap...99, 1.6

To Turbo
 

Injen CAI has been working fine installed it in October and no problems as of yet.

ive got a 1.6L too....

(for some reason its a LOT faster than youres though...)


:p







:blue:

o.k. maybe i should've set some paramaters...i'm talking about 3rd gen 1.6ers..

cause there isn't as much aftermarket goodies.for these ...i just wanted to see who on this board has one..so we have a reference..4 ltr..and we can help each other out:)

btw..ive only done a cheap cat back exhaust..and it put out 75hp at the wheels on the dyno..exterior mods include chrome tints and a "protegetech" banner.

I'm with yah tresdos3
 

I'm posting pics of my Performance Control module install under another thread. Check it out. The only other mods I've done is exhaust and audio. Let's keep working so we can beat those 2.0's

i got a 1.6l i got the injen cai on it 16's an alpine radio, orion amp,some cheap ass 12's in a bandpass box,painted calipers,wire loom in the engine bay for show, getting the xm radio soon.:blue:

look out guys cause this is a link to a thread posted in an aussie forum..read it carefully SPECIALLY ALL YOU 1.6ERS!!...cause it looks like things are starting to heat up on the aftermarket scene for our little pros!!:)

p.s its great to see the 1.6ers out in force!!..imagine that n/a 91kw atw..with a lighter package than the 2l..heheh!:)

http://forums.fastfours.com.au/messa...threadid=12711

sorry, don't belong here, but way to go tresdos! promoting our forums is what I'm trying to do too, I just need a few flyers or something, cause I saw some crazy mp3s parked, but didn't have a note to leave them

1.6 Liter here
 

CLAP CLAP!!!, right now i really can't find too much for my car, but i am lookin around for stuff!! i have a 2000 mazda protege lx 1.6 liter. all i have right now is a little flow master, clear corners, side markers, altezza tail lights, some rated r konig rims and low profile tires, and eibach springs, but i wish i can get more on the perfomance end. anyone got any suggestions on what i can do about that?:dunno:

Bosal cat-back exhaust, Injen CAI or custom intake, ngk wires, plugs. There's not too much out performance-wise for the 1.6. Soon enough though, rsmotorsports will have a lightweight flywheel and performance clutch. you should post some pictures of your ride. :]

mazdaspeed cams are available for 1200 australian $$$$
also mazdaspeed chip, i'm meeting up with frosty666 on sunday (its fri today)..and ill take lots of piccies of his ride!!:)






p.s. keep clapping people!:blue:

Well I got the ram air built, installed, and awaiting another air box from the factory so I can finish her off. The air flow sensor worked fine when I by passed the factory intake, but I plan on setting the ram air up to use a modified air box with ram air and factory intakes connected to it. I will post pics later on in the week when the air box get in.

tresdos3 chip and cam?
 

Tresdos3,
You mentioned Mazdaspeed cams are available for 1200 Australian $$$$ also Mazdaspeed chip. Are those for the 1.6l engine in a generation 3 99-01 Mazda Protege/323? If so how the hell can I get you to hook me up? Dam that would be awesome if we could get a hold of that stuff for our cars. The only option for more power out of our 1.6er I can find is to juice it with Nitrous which you know can be good or bad. Or a custom turbo but you might as well get a 2.0l swap if you’re going to spend that kind of money. Um, I wonder if Rishie, Corksport, or anybody else would be interested in importing this stuff. Any U.S. 1.6er interested? Well any-who Tresdos3 if you could post the Mazdaspeed Part numbers for the cams and chip that would be awesome. Can't wait to see your pics of the install.
Thanks
Ausies rule!
P.S> ya think you could get one of them Shelia’s to wear her bathing suit and pose next to your pics of the install. You yanks know that over there down under that bathing suits are only the bottoms for men and women (Shelia’s). HAHA!! Thanks again.

cams and chip
 

biknman...trust me ..im as excited as you are on hearing the news about the cams and the chip.:)..frosty666 had his car dynoed and got 91kw atw for these and other bolt on mods..eg exhaust, extractors...(this compares favourably to the 55.5kw atw i got with a cat back exhaust)...now, i will be meeting frosty666 on sunday as we are having a big cruise (over 60 cars) for our club....as far as i know he got the cams as his brother/cousin works for mazdaspeed in japan and he was able to obtain a mazdaspeed brochure..anyways the cams are listed as "mild street"...and frosty has personally mailed me with a price of about 1200 aus $$...but stay tuned to this thread as i will be taking piccies of his ride and getting all the downlow...

but as i said ...with 91kw atw..with a package that only weighs 1032kg...watch out 2ltrs!!:)

in addition it was frosty's car which was used as a guinea pig for uniflow in order to build their rampods...which are now available for 175 aus$$$

1.6....
no performance mods
just exterior riceness: sport 20 bumper, etc. :blue:

Rampod Pricing
 

If the rampod for the 1.6L is $175 AUS how much would it be in U.S. dollars? If it's around $200, I want one! Also, does anyone have a picture of it installed or right out of the box?

Re: Rampod Pricing
 

also... how can we get this? where from, and i'd also like to know the u.s. ammount. :]

ill get piccies for you guys soon...

1 u.s $ = .50cents Aus $$

thus you can get the rampod for 90u.s $$....shipping would probably be about 50.us.$$ im guessing.(does anyone know the cost of shipping door to door?).it is not a big intake....basically it uses the first set of piping form the throttle body to the maf...then the rampod piping is about 20-25cm...which comtains the maf..and then a huge ass rampod filter..it looks very nice!

biknman...mazdaspeed cams and chip to go with them cost kevin (frosty666) about 1600$$aus..about a year ago...apparantly they have been available since early 2000...ill get you the part number soon.

hmmm, $140 shipped from over there eh? that doesn't sound *too* bad considering where it's coming from. If at all possible, i'd like to get this thing before may (the shows start!) so hook it up tresdos! :] lets get our 1.6's rollin (just a little faster).

CLAP! CLAP!

shion... i want pictures of your car :D sounds like you got a pretty hot 1.6 ;] check over in the For Sale section, maybe you'll be interested in the cf hoods we're trying to get. for the 99-00 protege's.

shion
 

ill second protetype....post some pics shion i wanna see these racing harts:D :bt:

No plroblem. They had to be shipped to another shop to be dipped. They'll be on my ride sometime next week. Pics will be posted soon.

hey tresdos, i emailed uniflow last night for s&g's, and just to get a bit more information on the rampod for the 1.6l. this was my response...

Former 1.6'er!
 

Hey folks!

I haven't a 1.6 Pro, but I kind of have a soft spot for 'ol engines of that size-- My old Nissan Sentra was a 1.6'er (GA16DE), and I always thought it was okay for getting around, although admittedly quite modestly so. 110 HP and 108 ft. lb torque. Always loved getting out there on the road and taking trips-- For 10 years that 1.6'er got me where I wanted to go, and continues to drive for the new owner after I sold her. 120k miles and still going strong (and believe it or not, I never changed the timing chain, and the clutch is still original!).

Take care of those little bangers and they won't let you down! :bt:

Hey, i have a 1991 toyota corolla which is a 1.6L engine.
does this count???

oh and a 2000 acura 1.6EL too.

Well, I will be getting my new 1.6l hatchback :) in the next few days, does that count?

99 Protege DX
 

I have a 99 Protege DX 1.6L....could not ask for a better car..I LOVE IT... one big Clap here.
