I like the closeup of your cracked bumper

ducom7

That damn bumper is coming off soon anyways, getting a kit from Mach III - the heat of the exhaust keeps melting it more and more..

haha

ducom7

What you think of my car though anyways?

nate0123

Visually, I think the tint looks good. The oversized stickers aren't to my taste. The muffler looks pretty good. Most everything else looks stock. Anything else you'd like me to comment on?

ducom7

The stickers arnt a big deal. I just think they look cool. Yeah besides the tint and exhaust everything else is stock for now. I have only had the car a month so Im working to get everything going. What should I get next my 3 jl audio 10" w6 subs with box for $250 w/ 1000 watt amp for $350 or lower with Intraxx springs 2.25? What would you do?

nate0123

yea I'd lower it next

ducom7

Did you lower your car? WHat springs? I heard Intraxx springs are nice. THey got a website do you know of?

nate0123

Nope, my car is running around at stock height. I bought springs over 2 months ago from Spool Turbo but can't put them on yet because the rear springs were produced wrong and I'm still waiting on replacements.

This is what it will look like lowered


As for 2nd gens, browse around the 2nd gen suspension forum and see what everyone else is using. http://www.protegeclub.com/forum/for...?s=&forumid=63

Thanks...

I was also thinking (before I even saw your car) to , when i get the body kit, re-paint the car black because the car would look sick with the tinted windows...Think so? Only problem would be the tan interior.....

YOu run JL Audio?

nate0123

Tan would look just fine with black exterior, just make sure you get a really good paint job. Half-assed black looks like crap.

yep, I have a 500/1 running 2 10w3-d6s

ducom7

How much you pay for that completely?

nate0123

I think somewhere between 1000-1100

ducom7

im getting 3 jl audio 10" w6 subs (2nd from top of line) with box for $250 w/ 1000 watt amp for $350

only reason for the cheap price is because I work for jl audio heh

I want to turbo my protege but someone told me turbo wouldn't fit in a protege, engine campartment to small, this true?

96 Protege ES

nate0123

You've got a lot more browsing to do. There are turboed Proteges from all generations on this and the "other" forum. (see msprotege.com/mazdamp3.com/protege5.com: mostly 3rd gens but lots of turboed cars).

I'm outta here, got class. Good luck.

BTW hook me up with some components and front amp!
