I miss my 94 and its solid performance. Handled 10x better than the P5 I got to replace her in 2003.

Mods included:
-MX-3 V6 seats re-upholstered
-Mazdaspeed strut mounts
-F/R Strut tower braces
-Tokico blues
-H&R Springs
-ST rear sway bar
-Larger diameter solid front sway bar
-2000 Protege ES 15-inch alloys on 205/50-15 tires
-Brembo rotors
-Steel-braided brake lines

Motor had some minor bolt-ons, but they really didn't do much. This car's forte is handling so that was my focus.

Ouch! I don't think these had side-impact beams and I always wondered what would happen if I got t-boned. Sucks.

Good luck with the BP build! Those motors are stout and should handle boost very well. I always wanted to put a GTX/GTR motor in mine but never had the dinero to do it. The KLZE swap was always tempting.
 
Hello, I just bought a 96 LX with the 1.5L that I use for commutes to/from work and for road trips. I have **PLENTY** of questions about this car, I'd like to take care of this Protege as well as I can.

Auto, but that's OK because sometimes 5spd gets cumbersome.

it has 77k on it, which isnt bad from what I have ben seeing

I am new to 'new' cars, I have more experience with aircooled VWs...but this is a VERY welcomed change for me :)
 
Hey congrats man, and if you treat it right it will last you a long time bro.
