Default My sc300 and MAzdaspeed Protege.

Hey im new from Maryland. I wanted to get properly introduced so heres a little about my cars.

I have a 03.5 Mazdaspeed as my daily driver. It is mostly stock except for the stock turbo. FOR SALE!!

Mods: Stock t25 turbo setup at 8psi
Tein springs
Racing beat front and rear sway bars and exhaust
Racing hart 17" wheels
Heres a pic of it:




In this pic you can also see my old eclipse which sadly i sold this past january


I just picked up this 93 Sc300 2 weeks ago. its all stock but its my project so it will take a little time to get the parts together. Right now im just trying to get it running properly before i start modding it.

Any and all suggestions are welcome will have better pics tomorrow when i wash her up and give her a good cleaning.

Planned Mods: 19" g35 wheels or some other staggered set
Exhaust
NA-T turbo setup :sampy
Painted black along with wheels
Coilovers
Switch to black interior from the ugly tan

Heres some pics( most from cell phone)




Heres a pic of both my cars:

yea it was repainted by the previous owner but looks like a 100 dollar maaco job cause the paint cracked and it seems like they didnt sand the car down they just painted it. So im going to get it repainted black or repaint it the original red.

the SC looks like a good project car... just remember to get the engine compression tested before the turbo mod. By the way, unless my eyes deceive me, that must have been some pothole you hit in the mazda. the driver side front rim appears to be bent...
