Note: I am providing you guys with products that are not officially released yet, so our website has not been updated for this.

what is "hallow internal structure"? do you mean HOLLOW? How can something that is hollow be stronger than something that is solid?

I'm sorry, I meant hollow, not hallow ;)

Do a search on google, but its merely physics.

Its been proven that a strong hollow bar is more rigid than a solid bar. Another words, the solid bar will be more prone to flex than a hollow bar.

thanks
chris

huh, ok, I'll look into that.

Actually, there is a correction again. Hollow is more rigid than solid, but I was just informed again that it IS "hallow".

Hallow refers to a rectangular, but hollow structure, which is actually less prone to flex than a hollow and round frame.

I apologize for misguiding you previously. As I mentioned, these are brand new products so I am still learning all their benefits :cool:

I will post pictures up describing hallow structures.

Sincerely
chris

rectangular and hollow I can see as being stronger!! That is a big difference, it's the difference between tube frame and box-end frame!!

sounds nice, good luck.

hehe thanks! I have seen the actual products, really good quality and good looking.

Here are some pics of hallow structure.

bizzumpp for some great products! :D

will these come in colors? i know most people [me!] like to color-coordinate with the other mods they have done.

do you have any other pics of these products on a vehicle?

BUMP

Promotion:

All GT SPEC products will have a special introductory FREE SHIPPING :)

Unfortunately, they only come is the colors as shown in the links above for now. What kinda of color are you looking for?

No pics of these on cars for now. I will push for it to get done once Mazda dealerships will start selling these products. Keep your fingers crossed for this. I have seen the products myself and can assure you perfect fitment. :)

Chris

For now, they will come in burnt orange.


I will post real pictures by end of today.

Chris

I noticed there are more parts than you mentioned on CorkSport's website. Do you have a complete list of the GT Spec parts?

Bump for special pricing...:)

The GT SPEC parts for the Mazda Protege has all been listed out by me in this thread.

Could you tell me the website that has more parts?

Thanks,

Chris

We have the whole inventory for GT SPEC products, but unfortunately, our range of components are not as much as cork sports.

We do not carry the same type of goods. I do not see Cork sport carrying as much variety of handling components as we do.

Thanks,

Chris

bump...

now with FREE SHIPPING and extra 12% DISCOUNT for Protege drivers! ;)

Thanks,

Chris

How long will this deal be going on? I am extremely interested, yet need to wait somewhere 1-3 months. :(

hi there, thanks for you interest. I am not sure how long this deal with last. We are currently offering specials because this is a new product.

I will keep the site posted.

Let me know via email chris@edoperformance.com if you want to arrange something for your delay in purchase. ;)

Thanks,

Chris

Please PM or email me before the discounts/sale ends! I am certainly interested in many of the products. I have to focus on graduation and the conclusion of track season, not to mention life's other fun problems. I can't seem to find the Protege parts on your site either...could you please post a direct link? Thank you.

I will keep your info in our records. ;)

Our website is currently down and will be updated with GT SPEC products once we get it back up again.

Regards,

Chris

Where does the rear tie bar fit on the sedan? Any installed photos of this? Thanks for any help!

I will get you pictures of this asap.

stay tuned..

Regards,

Chris

Thanks,

pls copy paste into new window and delete the extra space i put right between the end of "picture" and "/"

I thought there was a rear tie bar that would be under the vehicle? Are you selling the lateral arms by chance?

Unfortunately, we do not have have rear lateral arms yet for the Protege.

Thanks for your interest.

Chris

Do you know when they come in?

Not anytime soon.

We now offer a trunk cage set. I posted it on a separate thread.

This will help eliminate alot of the understeer that FWD cars have while keeping your rear end flat during hard corners.

I've got the 21.5mm AWR rear sway bar, so I'm looking for a little more stiffness up front to make for a more neutral handling vehicle. I really don't want to go through the hassle of installing a front sway bar. The front lower tie bar and ladder look to be useful...I'm still gathering ideas for what I want though for end goal.

If you want to improve stiffness up front, a lower tie bar or the ladder bar would be a step in the right direction. Having those two together might make your car extremely stiff and run too flat up front and allowing understeer.

Let me know if you have any more questions.

Thanks,

Chris
