            Because I know the Mazda ones will fit perfectly. I could have saved a little with aftermarket replacement ones but I figure I'd just buy Mazda ones. $100 is a good deal for them.

                  MSP front swaybar and a MP3 rear swaybar. My parts guy said there are 2 types of end links, 1 listed for all Proteges and 1 listed for a "MPS2" stiff suspension. I took that as meaning MSP so that's what I got. As far as the bushings, the ones I have are fine and I'll pack em with grease so they don't do the notorious clunk. Worse case senario I buy new ones.

                      The bushings that hold the bar to the car, those you can pack grease around.

                        yes, i was thinking of just the endlinks. even better get the clunk fix brackets for the rear bar. http://www.autoxracing.com/component...id,3/Itemid,2/

                            Nice project!

                            BTW, you WILL need the curved neck intake manifold.

                            Good luck! PM me if you need some answers.

                              100% positive on the curved neck manifold? It's no problem, I have access to a ton of KL intake manifolds.

                              So how do you have answers? Have you put a KL in a 3rd gen Protege? Just wondering. I'll take all of your answers, I don't mind cheating.

                                No car! I soldz it. Now I have a truck. I like it, but apparently it has a hard time keeping up with a slightly modified 4WD protege with half the hp. Neat.
