2001 Mazda Protege ES 2.0, not too bad, okay KMs, fully loaded w/sunroof and all.
It needs a new shift **** though.... are shifter ***** like always universal or what's the deal?? Any links to some nice real CF shifters? Found some nice ones on ebay but after shipping they aren't such a good deal anymore

Rep Power: 0 some ***** are universalbut use plasic couplings to screw in to the shaft, the best screw on to the factory shaft... they might be a little more but they wont spin wobble off like the cheap ones...
i know a honda civic **** has a 10x1.5 thread pitch.. maybe a mazda protoge is the same

Rep Power: 0 Turbo that bish, Mental Addiction Motorsports makes a helluva turbo kit for those cars, I think they have a P5 running 12s or something? It can take down a modded Evo. Nice ride, I picked up a Mazda3 a few months ago myself, it owes most of its handling heritage to the Protege, great lil cars.

Rep Power: 762 he's not looking to do any mods to this car, once he replaces the shift **** because the stock one is all worn out, that will probably be it for adding stuff to this car
