probably, you people know i suck at spelling. I think thats the company I'm going to go with, unless Stillen makes an application for the 2.5l 4cyl motor.

Yeah I also have a 350Z on order.

I haven't done anything to the coupe' yet, although I plan on doing some *minor* engine mods to it in the future. More information can be found Here (http://www.greddy.com/images/GReddy350ZTT.jpg)

The Mazdaspeed Protege comes with a turbo no? Plus it's very limited to about 1000 each year or so.

Racing hart rims, mazdaspeed bodykit and exhuast, lower control arm joint thingies,

i would too......just caz i think a pocket rocket should have at least one of the following IMO

1. really really light (or hp/weight ratio)
2. over 200hp
3. force induction

but is still a great choice

:D

According to that, my Spec V has 5 more horsepower stock, and its a non-turbo. Plus that only comes with a 5-speed (mines a 6). I also have Rockford-Fosgate, better than kenwood's thing.

It also has racing hart rims, mazdaspeed exhuast, Tokiko suspension and those tie bars.

Main reason why I push the mazda is that it's rarer. 1000 each year to be imported. We have way too many sentra spec V's running around here in TO.

But both are equally good cars in thier own right.

Grats man :)

450 watt Pioneer with LCD like screen..set up for siris too.

no, Spec V is way rarer because its so ugly nobody's gonna buy it. A redesign in 05 should help. I'll admit it: I think the front is horrible! But it'll make a nice little toy.

yeah, Nissan is making great products, and Its up to me to buy them ;) Too bad the Roadster won't be here for another 6 mo.

The Spec V should be in next week

Personally, I would also go with the Mazdaspeed. The whole package is there, most especially a dope-a** suspension set up. It being a turbo, it is pretty tunable like the 1.8t. I also like the smooth lines and and body kit of the Protoge. I was looking into the SE-R for a while, then the Mazdaspeed came out and I was easily swayed by it. But hey, you still picked a good car.

Rocky

Both are great cars...like I said...Spev V's are a dime a dozen in Toronto. I've only seen 2 Mazdaspeed protege's so far and a million spec-v's.

Also, each 1000 mazda ships are different colors denoting different years I believe.
