    Mini 2002 Mazda protg5 project

    If it's rusted that bad, you have frame rust... and it's probably just a beater.

    Curious about cold engine rattle at 2.5K

    So, curiosity kills. Does anyone have a rattle at 2200-2900 or so RPM with engine cold under load? It's quiet up to 2000 rpm then, hear a rattle and then quiets at about 2900. After warming for 5 minutes the temp needle sits past 1/4 and it doesn't happen when hot. Purs like a kitten (even...

    so i had a wreck

    Learned that lesson last week while on a 'fun-cruise' in the snow. I've been driving and taught how to drive in snowy conditions, so no big deal. However I had this lady in a sebring sliding across a 2 lane road at me and ended up having to go off the road in a slide after she hit the back...

    WTB: Few parts needed!

    Well, because other people don't know how to slow down in snow and drive carefully, my p5 has a few bruises. And now I have to fix their screw up. I know I need these parts (probably more): Rear bumper cover (P5) rear left tail light (P5) ** need first Rear bumper support Rear left quarter...

    P5 Transmission Swap ?

    Just curious, some P5's have ABS which is where they get their speed on the speedometer from...correct? So why would it matter if the donor transmission was out of a car with ABS? Difference in what exactly?

    Suspicious Front Suspension

    haha, no big deal. I hope he doesn't. The next time he tries to stop it's going to be like ice: no stoppage...or very little. Getting grease or oil on brakes would be the worst...I can't imagine.

    I went and drove a bunch of new cars today

    Still in the 3500$ price range (nudge nudge) It's my little 'grocery getter' and ticket preventer. (five-0) If i had gone the sti or speed3 route this early in my life, I'd be loosing my license. The P5 is fast enough for daily transportation and it gets around corners that say 35 at 55-60 with...

    Suspicious Front Suspension

    How many miles/KMS on the car? Have the struts been replaced if they have.. when? How EXACTLY did you lubricate the wheel bearings properly? That worries me...a little.

    Poor GPM's

    My Auto consistently gets 22-23 and that's staying in the throttle quite a bit through the tank. FWIW, I can get 26-27 mpg if i stay out of it. I've gotten 31-32 on the highway to the beach with the Auto...but usually hover 28-29
