99 Mazda Protege- Ride of the Day

Tuesday, October 31st, 2006

This Mazda Protege is one of my favorite cars ive featured so far.  Its a 99 model with the body kit off of a Mazdaspeed Protege of the last few years.  No details were included about the build, but i would imagine that fitting that kit and making it look as great as it does was no easy task.  You see, the body style between cars are subtly different, and I would bet that getting this kit to fit that well took quite a bit of creative tweaking.   frednew9.jpg

Greddy Turbo Charged Mazda RX8 - ROTD

Thursday, October 26th, 2006

For those that don’t know me, I love the rotary motor, ive owned 2, a Mazda RX7 and a Mazda RX8.  There is just something about them that makes you fall in love with it as soon as you get behind the wheel.  With my RX8, there was never a dull moment in the car, every second behind the wheel was fun.  These cars handle unbelievably well, and while a little underpowered, they still feel quick. 

Todays Ride of the Day owner, Justin Terramagra, took care of the underpowered aspect of the car with a host of performance parts, including the Greddy Turbo Kit.  In addition to the Turbo kit, a Greddy Type RS BOV, Mazdaspeed Exhaust, Greddy Oil Pan and Catch tank were added to round things out.  An Interceptor EMS and Greddy Profec E01 was employed to fine tune everything and get the most out of the turbo setup. 

The outside of the car remains mostly stock to suprise unsuspecting kids that think they are fast.  The addition of clear side markers and some window tint give the car subtle touches that take an already great looking car and make it that much better.

Seriously, what is it about this color?  For the last few weeks, this has been the sight in my warehouse, except they are all normally parked by each other. I just finally got around to taking the pics today.
