Does anyone know if the 4wd pro's can use the miata rear drive lines?

no, it cant. its totally different.
the only thing that swaps in is the LSD for the 1.6 miata. ONLY THE DIFF ITSELF, you have to install it into the protege's pumpkin and reuse the protege ring/pinion.Escort GTR -- 11.87 @ 117.6 mph -- 320 HP / 325 Ft. Lbs. @ 23 PSI

So it looks like we're stuck with the protege parts. Do you know if we can use the hubs off a miata?Comment

do some searches, there is quite a bit of 4wd specific stuff around here now.
but really, i'm not 100% sure about the hubs. There are options for brake upgrades via miata sport models

"There's a hierarchy of insanity in motor sports. Normal people think all racers are crazy. Folks who race sedans think people in open-wheel cars are nuts. People who race cars of any kind think motorcycle racers are absolutely off theirs meds. But there's one group that everyone agrees is made up of the most extreme, the most daring, and absolutely craziest people in racing - rally racers."

the hubs are different, i dont believe the miata uses a macpherson strut like we do. i'm also sure that they dont use the twin trapezoidal link rear end system either.

The miata has a funky rear suspension. IDK what its called but it is neither the above listedI live my life a quarter pounder at a time. And for those 500 calories or more, I'm free. I need FRIES! Two of them. The big ones. Oh, and I need them tonight. You're lucky the double shot of BBQ sauce didn't blow the seam on your nugget box. There she is, 2 pounds of pure beef. My dad ate it in 9.0 seconds flat. Check it out, it's like this. If I lose, winner takes my happy meal. But if I win, I take the burger and the toy. To some people, that's more important.
