Kinda pissed that it's an old shot with my old wheel/rack setup but still awesome! (rockon)

congrats either way

[sean22306]

Badass!

[Outlawstar98]

And you have my hood now, not that one! LOL!

[Rush]

Sweeeeeeeet!

How's that happen, though? Do they just surf the web and snag pictures that they think are nice, or do you have to submit a photo to the magazine and it can be used whenever, or what?

[fishdonotbounce]

Ricer :dodgy:

Lol just kidding. Congrats man.

[justinlansdale]

i submitted it like wayyyyyy back not even thinking and i guess they liked it and threw it in a mag...pretty sweet.

[Rush]

You should send them an email with a photo of your current setup, and be like -- ohaaay, this is a shot of my car NOW, so put that in next month's, cause you owe me for taking so long, kthx! :D

[justinlansdale]

haha my brother and i were just talking about that! i'll have to do so ;-)

[MSP4G63]

saw that today i knew it was someone from the forums

[dandan2]

i need to send some to modified and superstreet see if i can atleast get in some readers rides! lol

[Ricktalife]

i bet 9 / 10 people reading that have no idea what your car is.

but anyway, nice job justin!

[fishdonotbounce]

Lol very true. And I just realized this but can someone tell me what the hell that civic is doing among all those rides?

[Dparks7]

it has vvv-tekkkkk yoo

[Ricktalife]

Lol very true. And I just realized this but can someone tell me what the hell that civic is doing among all those rides?

yea seriously it looks like an lx to me. the POS model of the POS honda.

[BadBandar]

oh thats sick. I gotta check that issue out.

[boostdprotegelx]

i hate you. and i love you. good stuff. my plan is to get my lx on the cover of IT, SS, or something of the sort.

[Ricktalife]

wouldn't that be sick if they had a special issue devoted to msp's?

[BadBandar]

i hate you. and i love you. good stuff. my plan is to get my lx on the cover of IT, SS, or something of the sort.

Dude if u wanted to cover you would have to do shit load of stuff to ur car. The more the mods the better the chance. And ur car doesnt really need all that. thats my .02 But i would love to see a msp on one of those covers. Hey maybe Justin can be the first. Get on it dude!

[boostdprotegelx]

wouldn't that be sick if they had a special issue devoted to msp's?
that truely would.. but not till i'm ready!

[Ricktalife]

[boostdprotegelx]

[fishdonotbounce]

Or maybe quad turbo? Two rear mounted? (boom04)

Haha it's late and I've had a long ass weekend

[Metallic36]

That's neat it's in the mag.. just sucks they waited soooooo long!! (protest)

[mgerst1]

I wrote to IT about doing an issue on the msp but they said nah but they would do one on the ms3

[Ricktalife]

[boostdprotegelx]

[Ricktalife]

LOL oh shit what did i start?

[fishdonotbounce]

Lol then we can have Justin on the front page of the first issue. :D

[Ricktalife]

well now that i think about it MOTM and the MOTM yearly calendar is pretty much our magazine...

[mgerst1]

Lol then we can have Justin on the front page of the first issue. :D

Now thats thinking with your dipstick, Jimmy

[dandan2]

i would just shoot for being in modified mag or superstreet! it would be a miricle if a msp made it on the cover!

[boostdprotegelx]

Pirana already did that bro. i'm looking for more than a feature.

[mgerst1]

I am sick of hearing about evos and sti's in these magazines. That is why asked about import tuner doing a feature on the msp considering they did a history of the evo. but that is when they said no.

[dandan2]

i know he did! and that was a miracle in itself! look at his title in his spread! NO RESPECT, he had that title name for a reason, proteges just dont get the respect we deserve. I mean why would modified put a 300hp protege on the covor when there is a fully built 1200hp supra that is in the lineup with it! thats just the way it is, now maybe if u knew someone in the system u could pull sum strings and make it happen!

[theEZV]

yea i stopped getting all those mags a while ago. got tired of seeing the same old civics and evos.

congrats justin

Yea it's mostly the same cars just done up different. I like seeing when they have the Datsuns and rarer cars done up.

[Falango]

Lol very true. And I just realized this but can someone tell me what the hell that civic is doing among all those rides?

I'm more concerned about that Neo that's there. That thing looks like it eats babies.......

[justinlansdale]

haha thanks guys. there is actually a magazine i picked up a year or two ago that was nothing but mazda's, i forget what it was called, but it had a huge 10 page spread dedicated to MSP/MP3s...it was sick.

[BadBandar]

^^Are u refering about MazdaSport? I remember emailing them about more issues. But they renamed the magazine to Rotary something.

[justinlansdale]

yep that was it!

[coondogg]

Congratz...

[JDM Sam]

We need more innovative builds from the Protege community to get noticed by magazines. The MSP is basically a has been platform to people outside this forum. Civics fell off but gained steam back when people were doing tucks like these and you can see the work that was put into the build.

D-sport is featuring a Mazdaspeed3 project build up. Then again because it comes with a more respectable starting hp point and is probably the only performance oriented FWD import available to purchase new.

[blackmica_es]

fwiw, you there's a card inside the magazines, to order a year's subscriptions to superstreet and modified for $20, or superstreet and import tuner for $15. pretty sweet deal! for those of us who're sick of seeing hondas, grassroot motorsports is THE magazine to get. none of the hype and fluff, and tons of old-school mods.

[dandan2]

i need to renew my subscription! it just went out last month and i already miss it!

[BadBandar]

where do they tuck the wires to? Looks good.

[xJAZx]

i think most of them run under and behind the block but i dont think they have as many as us to start out with either

[JDM Sam]

They deleted all the accessories, so its not a very streetable car. Those magazines are only going to feature cars with well executed builds. If you want a DIY mag, Project Car Mag would fit the bill but they feature more popular tuner cars.

[TheMAN]

I hope that car has hidden radiator fans tucked up behind the bumper

[Cruzanspeed]

I went back through my mags & remembered that this spicy made it on the front cover of modified mag back in may 2005! So I guess there is still hope for us!!!

Nice find!!

[Dparks7]

that is what i want my miata engine bay to look like, after this winter. nothing unnecessary, and really clean

[NJ MSP]

congrats.

[BadBandar]

saw the magazine at Barnes and nobles yesterday. Pretty cool seeing Justin's car in the magazine. If u scan the page u can pretty much identify all the cars but the msp. Unless u know what it is its hard to guess.

[Mazdaspeed2oo35]

How hard and what exactly you need to do for your car in this case my car to be in one of these magazines or this one, Thanks....

Awesome Justin, glad to see the Protege are still kicking ass !!!

[NJ MSP]

yeah my buddy thought it was a turbo 2000 si at first glance.
