My car

Swap in a KL engine with the DE bottom end and G4 heads and intake manifold, turbo it
Put FD Wheels on it and lower it
Shit will be cash yo

Drive it, silly

A friend of mine had one of these. He put a subwoofer and amplifier that took up the entire trunk. Do that.

Or BP-T swap if you're boring and want something slightly simpler

>amber lights on a car this "new"

we got rid of ember lights in the mid 90's, even this particular mazda was only available with clear blinkers here, wtf burgerland

Probably won't fit, with the supercharger and intercooler and whatnot.

It would be close enough. The blower sits under the intake manifold and the whole package will bolt into the Probe without hood clearance issues so I would imagine the Protege would be a close fit seeing as the KL does fit without hood clearance issues.

It would be a nice novelty but no one swaps them because the KLZE is only 10hp less and you can get that back with Pacesetter longtubes and a decent tune.

Fuck the ZE, it's intake manifold is shit, it still uses the VRS or whatever it's called system, and the DE bottom end is stronger with a more boost friendly CR

Then you can crash it into a guard rail even quicker

>crash it in to a gaurd rail at 130
It won't go 130

Keep it. And old econobox is like a old reliable dog that will always be with you. You might have hotter and newer toys to play with but your old mazda will always be there for you when the other cars break.

Not be so ungrateful about owning it.

Protege's are good little cars when they're not full of rust.
