Anyone know of any that have a selection of Mazdas (Proteges preferrably) around the Denver area?

Not sure what they have at the Pull-n-save in Aurora, but I've been there for a few other cars that I've had. Might want to give them a call. They've had typical old American iron there, and I snagged stuff for my Saab there as well.

There is a Pull-N-save. http://www.pullnsave.com/ I don't know what they have.

I was looking for the same thing but for my first gen rx-7 and Denver or Colorado Springs.
I hate having them pull stuff when I can do it myself.

When I was there last summer they really didn't have any Jap cars really. The actually had a really small sections and they had 2 FC's. Probably not there almost a year later. you should call. If they have what you need get there quick cause the next day it might not be there.

Your gonna have a hard time finding anything newer like our cars... Most the time if junk yards get newer model cars they will strip them down themselves and sell the parts rather than dumping the whole car off in the yard and letting people come in and pull parts off.

Let me check around here. Basically I was just looking to see if I could get a couple intake manifolds (sell them for about $80 each). If there was a Mazdaspeed Protege, I'd strip it nearly clean (brakes, turbo, intake manifold, rear sway bar, suspension). Also, certain 626 models have a single runner intake manifold that can be used on Proteges.

The description is messed up. The MP3 has a 2.0L engine. There was an early 90's Probe GT that had a turbo, but I'd doubt the compatibility with a newer Protege. The mid 90's Probe GT had the Mazda KLZE V6 motor.

Could be labeled wrong. Take advantage of it if it is. A turbo is nice, but for reliability sake, I'm sticking with NA.
