happened on my 03.5 also. i bought a new light.

looks like good work. any chance you have any numbers to go with the pictures?

i like it alright, but if i was going for "small 2-door bimmer", i'd look into a 1-series. does hamann do a 1-series package?

corksport has some: http://www.corksport.com/corksport-urethane-exhaust-hangars-for-protege.html

if i remember correctly, the ion exhaust had one piece off the turbo all the way down to beneath the car.

cool, thanks for the info. gonna buy them today and then have them sent off to be cleaned and flowed. i have a unichip, and the stock injectors simply aren't cutting it. definitely looking forward to the upgrade.

hey guys. i'm in the market for some wrx injectors, and i've managed to find someone with a 2005 model who recently upgraded to larger-than-stock. i believe they are, but can someone clarify if these are "drop-in" with the msp? from reading/searching around these boards, the "wrx blue 440cc"...

sumitomo xtr - far from ideal. i never once got stuck, though.

@zuku26 - ah, i saw some autoX stuff, but not much on rallycross. looks like track ninja is the guy. while i don't think i'll end up doing a lot of rallycross events, it was fun as hell to be given some great instruction and some fitting terrain to tear up. overall, a really fun weekend.

this past weekend in hillsboro, OR, i attended the paul eklund rally school per recommendation of a coworker/friend that regularly does rally racing (TSDs mostly). while i was surrounded by AWD vehicles (mostly subarus), the mazda held up well. considering i literally rolled off the street and...

i'm currently living in portland, OR, and working slightly westward in hillsboro. strangely enough, the unichip headquarters are roughly down the block from me. i spoke with a guy who contracts with unichip to do tuning, and i should be able to get the banana in the shop soon. now to my...

i've heard good things about the beck/arnley coils, so that is potentially an alternative to OEM. also, for those running 9psi and up of boost, i thought it was recommended to go with plugs that are one step colder.

for the coils, i was looking at part #1788310 for coils (beck/arnley). for plug wires, i was at part #5659 (#ZE76 ... NGK). i was also going to pick up some denso iridium ik22's from amazon. from research on the board, those seem to be decent selections. thoughts from anyone else? *edit*...

isn't the tint limit a state-to-state thing? for texas, it was 35% or something for front tint, so that's what i did all around.

i very much like the lights in the lower grill; how'd you mount them?

you're 21 and you're having trouble getting a credit card? just go wander around a college campus for a few days and find a credit card recruiter; you'll probably get a free shirt or something out of it.

corksport has the tokio 'HP' struts: http://www.corksport.com/02-03-5-mazdaspeed-protege/msp-struts-and-lowering-springs/ if those don't interest you, i'm sure you could hit up your local dealership to order OEM struts through them.

this is slightly more effort to get organized/shipped compared to, say, a turbo timer. as others have mentioned, ken is a pretty busy guy. trust that he's doing what he can to fulfill your order, and if you'd like to get a hold of him, shoot him an email or PM on here for a status update.

i like it. definitely like where ford is going nowadays.

my car was purchased at the dealership up north on i-35 (heading towards the outlet malls); i forget ... is it premier or something? after they tried to tell me injen intake somehow voided the warranty relating to my turbo, i left and have never gone back again. with that said, i second roger...
