    Will a Protege5 Catback fit on an MSP?

    Yes, it should but will be several inches short of the rear bumper. I know this as I have put an msp axel back on a p5 and it hangs out a good amount. ( Bolts and hangers appear identical ).

    What have you done to your P5 today?

    Okay, will do. I have pulled it from a parts car. The brake lines ( yet to pull ) are branded "Goodridge". They appear the same as clutch line. As for the exact part numbers I have messaged the original owner ( who built it for solo2 a few months from new ) however he is up north working for a...

    2003 Protege Coolant Change question?

    I flush the rad with distilled water then fill with premixed. Washes out all sorts of crud ( from mine ). Really good step by step can be found here: https://www.yourmechanic.com/article/how-to-flush-your-cooling-system-by-rocco-lovetere

    What a difference the proper tools make..

    For now... Lol, well to be fair I didn't exactly plan to evacuate mine. Figured I would make wine from sour grapes n' get it put back together better than it was previously. Lol besides I am just practicing. For what ? Not sure but logging hours in her.

    What a difference the proper tools make..

    Yes sir. I mean pulling engine. Lots of things can be achieved at the same time ( timing belt for one, think I will be using a stand next time, clutch/flywheel etc ). Just don't make it the one mod you do lol. But to be honest if you need a new rear, you've been rocking your engine around in...

    What a difference the proper tools make..

    Yeah well I don't think I would even attempt to do it with out clearing engine bay. But I am sort of a pussy lol.

    EGR question.

    Ah cool, yeah I sort of figured. I have a Canadian EGR attached to blown engine, I will just reclaim that one ( as I have the coolant and vacuum/drain hose already plumbed in ). Lol just trying to shave some time off this assembly. Which I should stop, as it seems like a better idea to go...

    What a difference the proper tools make..

    Oh and it IS possible to install AWR rear with out breaking that harness stud ! Who knew ?? Of course this is me pulling it out, the car it's going into I broke that stud replacing stock mount a couple of years ago.. but it is do-able. Heh.

    Stupid question about exhaust

    Fit this style gasket between header and mid pipe. The rest should just fit.

    EGR question.

    So assembling new intake, curious what are all your thoughts on Canadian vs non Canadian egrs ? I have both ( and in Canada..). I replaced a non Canadian one earlier on in car's life as it was a rusted fist. Any advantages to not looping coolant through it ?
