    My buddys car, my worklog haha

    Long story short my buddy bought an MX-3 4 banger, liked it and then bought a protege because he heard of the BP swap, then totaled the Protege but everthing needed was salvage YAY. So, im currently swapping a BP into a 93 MX-3. Or i think its a 93 im not 100%. Either way thats whats going down. Last night we pulled the B6 out. But im new to the BG game and have a few questions.l
    1. Are the front brakes on the MX-3 and Protege the same?
    2. What parts are of value on the Protege, were taking it to the junkyard soon as its stripped of everything we could use or need.
    3.Removing the Proteges rear end for disc conversion, do we need everything? Pulling it all either way tho.
    I pretty much just woke up im sure ill have more questions as the day goes on. Gotta clean up the engine bay.

    Before the hear transplant started.





    And its out. Sorry for dark pix, but this is what i was working in...

                    Forgot to mention last night that then exhaust manifold studs are broken, except for one. Hes on the hunt for a header, anyone know where i can get one?
                    Also if someones got it for the right price, BPT exhaust manifold too.

                              Well we got the manifold situation taking care of for the most part. Deff still looking for BPT parts tho. Anyway, car had a tune up and im proud to say it sticks with my PGT a little too well...what do these cars normal run in the quarter mile?
