    Yeah, Kev - I'm waiting to see if you'll post on here that you're considering dropping a Honda motor in a P5! Instant flame war

    It's been awhile since I've last posted, but suspension is sorted out for the most part. Here's a pic of the rear with the new subframe, Megan Racing lateral links and Racing Beat sway bar. I'm waiting on my bushings to come in so I can install the front Racing Beat bar...more updates to come...

    Thanks for the praise, still trying to sort the suspension/handling out, next we can move onto getting better n/a performance out of it!

    Weeks of delays and setbacks have finally paid off...for the most part. I've gone from this: to this: ...and I'm still not done working the bugs out of it! This has been one of the most stressful builds I've ever encountered, but one does not buy and mod a Mazda because it's easy...

    "Hellabroke" Protege 5 on a college Budget

    Mine has begun squealing lately too, just replaced the timing belt so maybe an adjustment is needed.

    Most definitely! I'm already talking to guys at bodyshops about pricing/options...what I'm getting back is: "If you want it fast and good, it won't be cheap. If you want it cheap and fast, it won't be good. If you want it good and cheap, it won't be fast."

    I've got the same setup on my '08 Maxima with KYB GR-2's and H&R sport springs, I've had no issues. It handles every corner and begs for more! I'm not looking to slam it, just a slight drop and maintain a nice ride while giving it better than normal handling.

    We took a piece of the metal mounting that came with it, secured it with a rubber grommet and it sits just right with just enough clearance from everything. I'll try and post some clearer pics shortly.
