Thanks

Thanks. I've been having a tough time finding performance supplies for my ES 2.0 and don't want to order the wrong stuff.

Don't forget the killer Racing Beat suspension set-up that let the MP3 out-handle the big boys

Hello Gavin,

NO, the MP3 was a limited edition protege in 2001 which was a hopped up verison of the standard sedan...it had the features that were mentioned previously plus front and rear air dams, side sills, and a wing...it came in only two colors, lazar blue and vivid yellow. They also sport a special badge on the trunk lid and on each door near the front just above the bump strip.

NOW for the real business at hand....

Welcome to our happy little corner of the net, and to our Club. There are TWO BIG fridge'S in the corner with anything you can think of in them...help yourself...of course only take what you can LEGALLY have. :{D

make yourself at home on one of the big fluffy couches, kick your shoes off, put your feet up on one of the tables, yes we are allowed to do that, mom don't care....and take it easy.

oh...btw....every once in a while a food fight breaks out...so you may not want to wear nice clothes here.

Welcome!!

now that's a proper welcome sir nuke!

just to stir things up a little, for 2003, the ES sedan will get the laser blue mica body color, same as the MP3. Without the ground effects and the wing and rims of course

The MP3 also has thicker sway bars, racing beat springs, and Tokico shocks. Don't forget about the yellow strut tower bar.
