MSP & Sport20 side-by-side
 
The picture kinda sucks. I was just too excited that there was one right down the street from my house. I had to take a pic. I'll get better ones.

Is the Sport20 here in N.America?!?

Kincaid January-21st-2003 01:28 PM

*sigh* It's not really a Sport20. He converted the body kit to Sport20 specs but the engine isn't FSZE.

hmmm now that is a beautiful thing.
Where was that pic taken??

True. *sigh* I wish I did have the real thing. The only thing I haven't done was the engine swap and the headlights. I plan on doing a turbo sometime in the near future. I took it at the Mazda dealership here in Savannah,GA. an't remember the name though. If anyone is in the area, and you want an MSP, I suggest you jump on this. It's been sitting out there for 2 weeks now. Can you believe that? 2 WEEKS!!!

Nice pic and cars!

P2k did you ever get the bumper repainted? Looks great man!

90210brandon. I have the only Sport 20 in N.America so far. "Full" conversion that is. You can see pics in the link below if you want or you can e-mail me and I'll send them to ya.

That did! Looks really good. You even switched the headlights...nice! Is that a MP3 Valve cover you painted blue??? I have been wanting to do that too! How did you do that??? Tell, tell, tell!

UPSman January-21st-2003 09:01 PM

Thats actually not the MP3 valve cover...its the valve cover that came with the FS-ZE engine. The MP3 has the "MP3" symbol in it as mine has the Mazda "flying M". I had the place that painted the 1/4 panels paint it also. My friend Jeremy who also had the same swap done didn't get the same valve cover...he got a slightly older model enigine with no valve "cover " cover.

Kincaid January-21st-2003 09:01 PM

Yes Jeremy did a great job with that car.
He's the reason I got the C5 replicas to begin with. His looks better and more aggressive than the MazdaSpeed Protege and captures a truly Japanese car in my opinion.

UPSman January-21st-2003 09:09 PM

Ahhh thats probably one of the greatest complients that I've recieved Kincaid! I really appreciate it. To be honest I thought that your car looked really good myself. Too bad that you had that accident. Glad you are ok. Great looking car!

CRUABL21 January-21st-2003 10:01 PM

Hey UPSman, what did you do with your old engine? I'm looking for a Intake Mani from a protege with the VICS system on it.

UPSman January-21st-2003 10:12 PM

My engine is still at the shop where I got the swap done ( I think ). It better be...I'll check for you.

Kincaid January-21st-2003 11:10 PM

Yeah no problem. Compliment where deserved.

Thanks for the compliment as well. heh, wait til you see my 6.... :D

protegeownzj00 January-21st-2003 11:19 PM

Is it me, or does your car look small beside the MSP?
