    BuddyClub2 - rear bumper + side skirts - Protege5

    Hey everyone...thanks so much for coming to the aid! A couple of you PM'd me asking for shipping quotes. As stated above, I won't ship these. I don't want to deal with the risk that these fiberglass items will break in shipping. I'm very sorry, hope you understand! hat1018 -- I will be...

    Saying goodbye to Mazda...for now

    Hey Ivan! Still rocking the turbo in that white P5?! How's that holding up? I ended up getting a 2010 Hyundai Genesis coupe. I'm trying really hard not to mod it lol Maybe little things, like tinted windows. Marlon! Wow it's been years! Hope all is well. I think I have a video tape...

    Saying goodbye to Mazda...for now

    I was going to post this in the Protege5 threads but Ohio means more to me :) Bad news first...my Protege5 is gone. It was totaled out at the end of July. Don't worry, didn't involve an accident. Sucked water into the engine during one of those strong July storms. There was no saving the...

    Anyone find rims that fit the CX-5 without any adjustments?

    Ahhh I see, thanks for clarifying! I was thinking the computer had a stored number of revolutions (i.e. stock 19's turn X-amount of times). But your explanation makes perfect sense if it's comparing the 4 tires with each other. Good question about replacing tire and resetting the sensor...no...

    Food for thought...predicting sound of aftermarket exhaust + Skyactiv

    me = still jealous lol I'm glad to hear that the CX-5 has more room, or at the very least is more likely to have more room than my current Mazda. I like being hands on with the cars I've owned, just so tired of putting change in the curse jar when I can't reach a bolt.

    Food for thought...predicting sound of aftermarket exhaust + Skyactiv

    apexanimal, I didn't forget about you in my previous post, I just don't have an answer for you lol Help me out, do you mean inner diameter when you say "id"? And are you referring to when all four pipes come together into one? If so...I still don't have the answer :) But just want to make sure I...

    Food for thought...predicting sound of aftermarket exhaust + Skyactiv

    My reply to all.. Thanks for the clarification, NoSuchSol. "Loud" is always subject to opinion. My P5 has an aftermarket intake and header (stock exhaust tho), so the engine area is probably "loud" to most...but I think it sounds just right :) CX-SV... me = jealous of the Fsport! lol...

    Anyone find rims that fit the CX-5 without any adjustments?

    So just a follow up question, are you saying that it's counting the tire revolutions per minute? That could make it a real challenge when configuring the proper rim and tire sizes, as it's usually off by some very small percentage from stock. Let me know if I'm misunderstanding you.

    Complete CX-5 Wheel Specs

    kampfire (or anyone), so is the distance from inside the fender to the face of the wheel/tire 25mm? (i.e. how many mm's until the tire rubs the inside of fender?) Also, is "et50" another way of stating the 50+ offset? Thanks!

    Anyone find rims that fit the CX-5 without any adjustments?

    No CX-5 on the Miata website?? Absurb!!! lol I'm guessing ourlee was thinking of the MX-5. CodyZoom, keep us in the loop if you find a set of wheels that fit well. I had a heck of a time finding rims to fit my P5. It was such a weird combination of diameter, width, and offset. Not sure about...

    Food for thought...predicting sound of aftermarket exhaust + Skyactiv

    I agree that there will be a lot of similarities. Maybe I'm biased, but I think the 2.0L used in the Proteges have a better exhaust note (aftermarket) than other modified cars in the same class. I don't think I would consider an aftermarket exhaust on a CX-5, simply because I've been reading...

    Food for thought...predicting sound of aftermarket exhaust + Skyactiv

    Right off the bat...I'm not a CX-5 owner. I've had the same Protege5 for 11 years...her b-day is this month :) As I enter the next stage of my life, the CX-5 is looking better and better. Now, my mind sometimes functions like I'm watching YouTube...I start with one thought about the practical...

    Mazdaspeed muffler

    I bought one years ago that was axle back for the Protege5, just as your described. Mine sounded fantastic. It's low pitch...probably deeper than most might expect. Under easy acceleration, it's not very loud and doesn't get annoying. Under load, it's very "throaty" and has a nice growl. Match...

    Whistling noise from BEHIND me?

    I can't offer any solution here. Mine has had a similar whistle that occurs under the same conditions as you described for several years. In fact, I have wasted much gas just accelerating to hear this noise. lol The difference is that I'm about 98% sure mine is coming from the front. Hope...
