    Front end clunk. Possible worn out sway bar bushing? Pic inside

    I've had this nasty clunk coming from the front right end. It almost sounds like thick metal on metal contact. I checked for the obvious first it being the endlink, which was still on very tight, and no play as well as no leak, I checked the ball joint and that seems okay, no play when I rock...

    Test drove a speed6 and have a few questions

    So I test drove a speed6 overnight and I gotta say it drives very well. It has 32,000kms or just under 20,000mi but I have a few concerns. From a dead stop if i put the car into 1st, I feel a really faint "thud", as if the 1st gear is somewhat overweight. Secondly, when I'm cruising along, I...

    E-brake light issue

    I just noticed this today driving to work. Whenever I press harder on the brakes, my e-brake light comes on for a few seconds, and then turns off shortly after I let off the brakes. I don't feel even a slight difference in brake feel, nor is my hand brake up. What I notice as well is that when...

    Msp lip with fogs?

    I know this topic has been touched over many times and most concluding with either it won't fit, buy aftermarket fogs, or even cut away at the lip. Now I have a question here and let me know if this makes sense. I understand that the fog light is too big once the msp lip because it starts to get...

    odd suspension problem

    Mods: Espelir springs, Tokico HP, Progress swaybar, stock endlinks. Problem: I installed the progress swaybar about 2 months ago and just 2-3 weeks ago the rear end developed a "creaking" sound. Didn't think of it much but I knew something was up and I started to be a bit more careful of my...

    Best tire size for setup?

    I've had my Espelir + Tokico HP setup on my car for about 7 months now and I just picked up a set of 03' msp rims. Now I'm shopping around for tires, and I'm not too sure what size of tire to get. I'm trying to decide on either the msp stock size 215/45/17 or 215/40/17. I've searched around and...

    Turn signal issue?

    I'm not too sure what the problem could be here. I'm helping out working on a 1990 Protege LX 1.6L and the left turn signal does not work. Both front and rear bulbs don't flicker, but this is where it stumps me. It obviously clicks faster to warn that the lights are out, but the left turn signal...

    Really stiff clutch?

    Hey guys. Yesterday I went out with a friend looking for a used car for him. Test drove a few hondas. I know honda clutches are very light. Test drove one, quite nice, but I'm not converting. Anyways, when i got back into my car, I never really noticed how stiff my clutch really feels. When it's...

    MSP/MP3 Racing Harts

    I'm looking for a set (4) of the 03 MSP 17in Racing Harts. I would prefer the silver coated 03 ones but if you are trying to get rid of a set of the 03.5 Gunmetal wheels I really don't mind. Second choice and last resort would be the MP3 Racing Harts. I would accept mint condition and minimal...

    Before i get to my point, yes i have searched for a few days now through the forums and it seems that everyone has different opinions with the variety of springs available for the P5 now. The setup I will have will be along with the stock wheels (for now but will be puting 17's on in the...

    quick question about oil change

    Well I'm due for another oil change right now and because Spring season is coming real fast and right now in my area we're averaging around 44-46 degrees Fahrenheit (7-9 degrees celsius), I was wondering if it would be smart to switch from 5w-30 synthetic (what I have right now) to 10w-30...

    midpipe question on a n/a

    I was thinking of buying a catback within the next few months or so, and i'm pretty much set on the RacingBeat. I was browsing around the forums and i was wondering if adding a catted midpipe will be worth buying to give it anymore gains on top of the catback? I'm assuming not a lot, this being...

    clutch squeek?

    I'm just below 100k kms (62k mi) and have not replaced the clutch yet (2ns owner), and every time i drive for over 30-40 minutes my clutch starts to make a short squeek whenever it is depressed, but it will only make a squeek maybe about an inch prior it (the pedal) being fully depressed...

    which springs to get?

    hmm right now i'm on stock wheels and because i don't really know which brand springs drop the height by how much, which one's would suit me? I do want to see a noticeable drop, but not too much, because i still drive a few passengers around sometimes and some roads here are a bit bumpy, so...
