they may not handle the way they were intended because of the diffrence in wieght between the p5 and mp3 but you could prolly get away with it i think

I dunno if they will work but if the factor u are hangin' on is weight the weight diff betwwen the pro 5 and mp3 is not that much its like 27 lbs or 127 lbs one of the two but i can't remember right now so in any case it not that bad becuse the weight.
Peace,

weight difference shouldn't be a huge factor.

first off, they will be just fine fit wise...all proteges have the basic same setups...they will work fine, as far as the ride goes...any coilover other than maybe jic, or tein will be a little rougher than stock ride.


of course...im still on the stock setup myself, what do i know?
