My new toy

Clicky thing
Another clicky thing

So kids, roll your Proteges off a cliff and you'll end up in a superior car

Ohh, do not be so mean. Protege is a very good car. Miata is nice too but only 2 seats. You say you rolled your car?

Sadly.

The Protege needs more power and more RWD.

And it understeers.

And no, it's not faster. Unless you suck at driving. My 99 runs 0-60 in 7.8 seconds or so and the 1/4 in 15.8 seconds. Oh and how much did you spend on those mods?

I spent less on the Miata than I did on the Protege. And it is a well-known fact that with the right amount of boost 300 rwhp is easily attainable. Try that on the FS-DE. It's unpossible and even if it was, you'd just be understeering even worse than before.

Sorry.

Perhaps with bigger rear sway bar you oversteer, blame driver not the car!
