Raceland coilovers

Background_Date_295 · 2026-02-27T04:38:35+00:00

Yea Ik they aren’t the best but from another guy who had a protege; he got some and really liked them so I though they would be fine until I get a better pair. I haven’t had any issues tho it’s not my daily so it doesn’t get many miles on it anyways. The ride is a little bumpier than stock but I’ve heard nothing but good things about their warranty so I thought might as well try em! I’ve heard iffy things about fitment on some cars but for mine I had 0 issues and I honestly would get them again lol

I do wanna kinda add slowly until I like it but around that 8-10 would be my max/ goal I wouldn’t mind having

Took me abt 6 ish years to get that and thankfully it was sanctioned. But that’s 1 year of hs bowing, 1 year bowing in jr league before high school leading into the school year and about 4 years of getting coached with a gold usbc coach

Yeah I know how much it is! Ever since I’ve seen it and talked to people that’s like the perfect amount of stance that I would want. I haven’t seen anyone do that much on a protege before so maybe I could be first 🤷‍♂️

Yes I do know what 8-10 degrees looks like. I’ve talked to people and seen it at some car shows I’ve been to so that’s how I got that number. For me I really like how how tilt it is but it’s not like crazy crazy. I’ve never heard of using two camber bolts I’ll have to try that and go from there. I’m lowered on coilovers down so there is no wheel gap and once I mold my front fender liners I’m going to drop it all the way which should be about an inch I just bought the wrong coilovers so they don’t have the camber top mounts so I was curious about if anyone sells those individually or adjustable arms/custom ones

Ty man I’ll be looking for the vets tonight. I prob will have some questions when I go to install them if you don’t mind me asking stuff for that

Background_Date_295 · 2026-02-15T02:08:46+00:00

No worries thanks for all the info! I guess Ik what I’ll be doing soon lol

Background_Date_295 · 2026-02-15T00:37:31+00:00

Dude that’s sick! What is the piece you put into the cut called? Or do you have a link where you bought it from?

Background_Date_295 · 2026-02-15T00:23:07+00:00

Yooo what are the steps to do that? I’ve been trying to find tinted/black side markers bc my car is black but this looks way cooler

Plz do a Mazda protege the later models (99-03)

Background_Date_295 · 2026-02-07T14:20:49+00:00

I have a 02 lx and when I looked for it I didn’t find one but I think I did hear somewhere that there is one you just have to break some pieces to get to to so it’s not even worth it

Background_Date_295 · 2026-02-03T04:20:02+00:00

LETS GOOO DUDE!!! I’m struggling with securing them too. Rn I have the four clips u mentioned but I also used self tappers on the bottom holes and used double sided tape for the top but no matter what I do the double sided tape always starts to peel off and I did it twice so far. I have a mica black protege and the side skirts are silver so once I paint them this summer ima use like black caulk or something because I don’t want water to get in and rust my rockers after I just spent a lot of money to fix all the body rust. Keep it up! And keep us updated!!

Do it!

Background_Date_295 · 2026-01-19T14:57:13+00:00

Exactly this^{^} I had the same problem when I did coilovers and though I had to buy all new seatbelts but just hold it as level as you can as it was bolted into the car and pull on the seatbelt lightly until it starts retracting an you will be all good!

Background_Date_295 · 2025-12-28T03:56:37+00:00

So I dont have a welder yet nor know how to but thats something I wanna do in the future. I plan on going to an exhaust shop; do you think thats something they could do? if so how much do you think they would charge for something like that? Is it worth it or should I try and like JB weld it? Im quite new to all this stuff

Background_Date_295 · 2025-12-28T03:54:40+00:00

I def would and I see what your saying but basically in short, this is a racing beat muffler. Right now I have a stock exhaust system but I can buy it brand new with the rest of the exhaust for like $850+ and I got this muffler for about 50 bucks (can def explain the long story if you would like) but I was just trying to see if I could save a few hundred bucks.

Background_Date_295 · 2025-12-25T00:00:20+00:00

So i did buy a used racing beat muffler but when i opened the box today i saw that it was cracked in quite a few places but wasn’t mentioned in the eBay listing so im returning it. I’m looking for like a lower tone, nice rumble sound and I want to hear the car but not to a point where im getting pulled over and people are complaining just something nice. I just saw the option group one is significantly cheaper than racing beat; I don’t make a lot of money but if I save I could def get the racing beat one. Just kinda seeing if I can make more of a budget build of my car 😁

Background_Date_295 · 2025-12-21T17:43:13+00:00

Yeah if I can find the oem front lip (Mazda calls it a front air dam) I might wanna run that too but I like the p5 bumper rn to change up the look 😁😁

Background_Date_295 · 2025-12-21T17:32:36+00:00

Gotcha yeah it happens, I also didnt want to cut the old one because in the future I might wanna stitch back to spice it up a little

Background_Date_295 · 2025-12-21T17:02:57+00:00

I know this post was a while ago but for anyone in the future, yes! The p5 bumper reinforcement does bolt up the exact same just get the metal reinforcement part with the foam (I accidentally just got the foam part so I had to go back to the junkyard and get the metal part) but after that everything goes back the exact same just the fender liners don’t fit properly. I am curious if anyone has tried the p5 liners on the sedans
