Pics of my Australian Mazda 323 Astina SP20 (Protege5)

Hi everyone, here are some pics of my Mazda 323 Astina SP20, or as you may know them as "Protege5"

The car is pretty stock standard, except for

- 17" CSA Wheels
- Lowered on King Springs (Australian Brand - probly never heard of b4)
- JVC Headunit with motorized face
- 3 JBL Amplifiers (1 x Under Driver Seat, 1x Under Passenger Seat, 1 x Attached to rear of back seat)
- Pioneer 12" Sub in boot
- Pioneer TS-D690R 6x9's on rear parcel shelf
- JBL 5x7's in front door's (replacing stock speakers)

I have future plans to put on some bigger brakes, sports shocks & either a HID kit or Projector lights (IF THEY EVER MAKE THEM!!)

Let me know what you think


Thanks
Jero

Very nice, and welcome to the forum.

Wheels look nearly like the stock 16s here...

Yeah i think they are the same tail lights as the jap ones.

I did paint the my calipers myself, i couldn't believe how good them came out either!!!
The trick is the use alot of degreaser, then let dry. The give each saliper at least 3 good coats.

You know I just thought of somethin! Why is it your contry has right hand driving but the radio is left hand frindly? I mean think about it your must block the view when you mess with it, unless your like me and your lazy and got a deck that has a remote!! LOL.
As to your car VERY CLEAN! The other thing I wish I had is the 5 lug 4 disk. Nice wheels too!
