Default Old schooler checking in

Hey fellow tuners...a lot of you don't know who I am, but a few of the older folks to this site might remember me...i.e. Prophet and a few others. Anyway, due to a ****ty job by Mitsu, I was forced to get rid of my beautiful 96 DSM....check the clasifieds for some parts that I'm getting rid of...gotta clean house!
I'm now riding under the Mazda badge. I currently own a 2002 Mazda Protege5 wagon...and I must say, this car sucks in a staright line, but absolutely KICKS *** in the zig zags. It's been slightly modified by yours truly, and will get FI treatment via a WOMP Powerdyne Supercharger as my Xmas gift to myself....I can't wait. Anyway, I always said I'd stop by and check in every now and again...plus my co-worker now own as sweet 98 GS-t which i'm helping him modify...so I'll be on here every now & then for some tech help. Well, be safe on the streets guys & gals!
'Nuff Respect!!
-Phil

And...custom badge work and if you didn't notice I've painted the headlights JDM black.
Plus I added a custom mounted MazdaSpeed Kenwood Sub/Amp rack so I can syill have my trunk space.
And the rims that should be arriving by the end of the week!

Hey nice wheels I should get me a set too... lol

Sup bro. Nice ride. I was eyeing the Mazda 6 or 3 before I decided to buy the wife her new car. We actually settled on a Scion tC and are waiting for the supercharger for it. Mazda makes really nice cars but I could never buy the 8. Way to much money for lack of performance. You can get a EVO or STi for that price.

Join my boards when you get the chance: www.dnaracing.net/board Got alot of military guys from Travis AFB. Let me know who your buying those wheels from too. My supplier for ADR said there out of the SZ-1's because I am looking for 19's. The 18's are just to small for me now.

I agree...my friend has an 8...it's quick, but for the money I'd go elsewhere.

I actually got those wheels on ebay believe it or not....$404 shipped.

lol... well that is not a good sign. Plus he doesn't own his own web site at least. Well it is worth a shot anyway. I really want 19's.

Thanks!
