I have been a member on here for a while...but havent said much (i lurk the mazdas247 site much much more then this one). but i have been doing some changes to my car recently, and still have plenty planned yet. i thought i would post a couple pictures to see what you guys think!

New wheels: Rota Torque 17x7.5 +45
wrapped in Kumho Ecsta AST 205/45/17





i also put on some cheap Autozone pin-striping on the front grill (sorry about the crappy cell-phone quality)


and when summer comes around, i have some Eibach pro-kit springs i will be putting on.

Welcome out of the Shadows.
Another Protege, Yea. Good looking P5.
Your springs will help with a more agressive stance.
What other mod plans do you have?
Whats your user name on Mazda24/7?

That's a pretty sharp looking ride.

Nice looking car. Always loved the P5s. 247 is rice central though. :\ I stay away from there.

Love the wheels! One of my favorites! Pin strip looks great.

Great looking car. I have always been a fan and your touches are nice a subtle.

lookin' good

Triad Dragons huh...

I'm getting the Eibach Pro-kit set this summer too. Good deal

haha thanks for all the replies, guys. yeah im really enjoying the new look, i cant wait for summer so i can get the springs on. i think someone asked for other updates...im thinking about removing the VTCS, though i dont know if i will do that for sure or not. it looks a bit challenging to take off the intake manifold. i will also be doing a bit more with the pin striping. i will do the lower front grill and probably on the inlay that is on the rear bumper. i dont know what its called. eventually i will get around to painting the calipers red, the rotors silver, the valve cover (i dont know what color yet, but it'll be painted eventually), and the header heat shield will be painted as well. i want the rust to go away...haha. so basically just a few appearance mods, nothing too serious yet.

someone else also asked about my sn on mazdas247, its the same on here. i have the same avatar, signature, and everything.

haha and yes, Triad dragons. ive been raving for two years now, though im starting to get out of the scene. its not what it used to be. but i still love techno, probably always will.

maybe one of these days i will come up to one of your guys' cruises. i just gotta get my arse in gear and get up and out of parker to do so.

I did the bottom grill today. Tore up my hands pretty bad trying to get it out...dem tabs are a *%#&@ to remove

Nice! Looks good!


As far as techno/raving whateverness, some big name DJ is gunna be at The Church Friday night, apparently this guy sells more tunes than Armin van Buren...um...names Roger Shah aka Sunlounger (i've never heard of the guy, but haven't heard of most any the people we get in).

Just in case your interested.

i would be interested...if i were 18.

not gonna lie...
those fogs are ridikalus...
pinstriping is pretty cool though. definately unique. good job on that.

yeah...a couple days ago i took off the chrome covers. it looks sooo much better.
