          1991 blue with 180k on the body. BP w/ 5spd swap in beaverton, or.

            I haven't seen one in the light blue before, good find. What interior color did they give it? Hopefully the tan and not the hideous blue?
            '90 AWD Protege, full GTR drivetrain swap, ~320 whp daily driver, RIP, and
            '90 AWD Protege, yet another GTR swap, Open class rallycar with a Toyota GT4 gearbox swap, thus crossing the line between hobby and mental illness. And a Brabus E55 K8, removing all doubt.

                neato!!

                I don't know whether mine is tan, or gray. maybe it's grattan? in which case, i should set it up for road racing and go to that track!

                  update for you guy I now have a 4wd with a BP swap and now it's a manual.

                  only thing I gotta fix now is the overheating issue

                  Comment


                    is it really overheating or is the gauge just saying it's getting hot? my gauge was all kinda buggered up. i just swapped the coolant temp sensor and the sender and everything works perfect now!

                    Comment


                      well it is getting hot cause I see steam when I turn it off. If you ever want to you should stop by and see it I live near beaverton.

                            Thanks for the link.

                            I plan on doing the Ontario Winter Rally (formerly the Canadian Winter Rally) its an epic TSD in late january I believe.. My father was always really involved with TSD's so he knows his stuff, and also did a lot of ice racing, long before i was around!

                              Well I got your old one now!

                              got it home today.

                              We got to just about Connecticut and my dad's truck started overheating off an on...

                              so we stopped and kept refilling the fluid till we got to Blazin's house.

                              Then we noticed a good bunch of white smoke ensued and we were getting compression into the coolant...

                              Blown head gasket on my dad's Ranger. We decided that we needed to get home so we kept filling the anti-freeze when it started overheating. we managed to get the 488 miles to where our garage is. I thought we would never make it home...

                              After we unloaded the car we went to move it around and anti-freeze was pouring out of the radiator. The compression into the system finally blew the plastic end tanks.

                              so... before I can work on the protege I'm going to have to help my dad fix his truck. That gives me time to build up money for parts though.

                              pictars!

                                Whoah, lucky with the pickup! My buddy's got a '95 ranger tha the just towed his '77 Porsche 924 from VA to WI with a couple weeks ago.. The clutch is about done, and he needed new brakes and stuff when he got back.

                                My vote is to put the 4L v6 in that sucker!
