Yo i just joined the forum and im still building my car up to what it was. I put down 1200 on it and it came wtih a few kinks. Its pretty rusted up it has a pretty bad sqeaking problem that isn't brakes. I think it might be rust inside the hub assembly and it kind of bothers me. As we speak its getting inspected and then fixed and then i can get some tags on it. Its completely stock but im hoping to get some molded wheels on it and some kind of turbo manifold on it as well as aftermarket suspension parts to see if i can get it to handle like a housefly. My dream is to drift but considernig its FWD it think if i upgrade it in any way shape or form it'll just be a kind of autocross car.

Comment if you will this is just an intro post.

Alright. My Protege is bone stock and pretty janky tho. I just had my lower ball joints replaces and my exhaust. For the future i'm lookin to get a catback and a turbo manifold. I'm lookin for some molded wheels just like you got Turpro in those pictures. I need to replace bushings in my shifter to tighten it up. Its pretty loose right now.

Haha my only boast is the $15 lights from autozone i have that light up my dashboard. I'm so ghetto.

My wheels are just some stock escort gt wheels painted black.

Yep. Rattle can. Krylon indoor/outdoor flat black, 2 coats then clear for the last coat. I'd really like to have them powdercoated but I just put the tires on and had it all balanced.
