    It's Arrived!

    Well, after working on my KLZE Protege 5 for a while, it's time to move on. Traded it today for something new.

    Went from this


    To this


    Looking forward to starting the build soon.

      Huge, and unrealistic

      Haven't made up my mind for sure yet. It will involve cutting and welding though.

        Don't make it RWD.. get a miata if thats what you want.

          Haha, don't worry. I have a RWD. This will definately remain 4WD.

                Nice to finally see someone else with a GTX in this neck of the woods. If you need help locating parts, let me know. I think I might have a spare fuel door to start .

                    Yeah, even trade. The Protege may have been worth a little more, but he included a long delivery of the GTX, and the Protege would have been a really tough sell with the KLZE in it. Besides, I've wanted one of these since I could drive.

                    Thanks man, I do have a fuel door, probably will need something though. I saw a white GTX when I was in Kingston at college, sitting at a house, no driveshaft, near Woodbine park. This would have been probably 5 or 6 years ago, is that you?

                      Thanks, I took 184 pictures in a row to get that shot. As much as I loved the P5, I just wanted something else.

                        Yes, that was mine at my old house. I think I spoke to you before (in a moment of weakness) when I put mine up for sale.

                          Yeah, I believe so. I can't remember for sure, but I think it was about the time I spun a crank bearing in the Protege 5, and threw the KL in. You didn't sound overly interested in selling either, lol.

                            I wasn't giving away a 107K GTX . At the time, it was cash, or keep her.

                              Well, we'll have to get together for a drive and a photoshoot once I get mine done.
