i dont know. i just found that and i clicked the add to cart and it seems to let me go through the checkout. it's weird....

is it just one pulley or two? and what belts to use? any problems w/ other associated parts like lights, a/c, or anything?

just one pulley.. and I don't know the belt part numbers, but I know they are mentioned in the UDP how-to on msprotege

I never had a problem with lights, I don't use A/C but I guess it probably worked fine.. the UDP seemed to do a nice job getting the car to rev faster, I liked it a lot. I only got rid of it because I didn't need it to reach my power goals anymore.

I don't think I'd want people to consider my car a wagon if I had a hatchback; so I most likely wouldn't go with them.

But hey, if you like they, they seem nicely designed. I doubt anyone would flame you for window decals.

I always thought wagons have a bunch of room in the back, like an SUV, while hatches just have the shape.

Wagon:


Hatch:

Celicas and some integras are hatches. We're 'sport wagons' lol
