Upgrades for 95 lx
 

i just bought a 95 protege lx. manual. 1.5L. yesterday, and i was wondering what the best upgrades for it would be.
anything to make it quicker/faster.
i do not care about looks at all.
thanks. :D

honestly, there is not a lot out there for the 1.5. if you want it to be significantly faster, i would recommend jumping to the 1.8 or 2.0 engine.

yea, i noticed there is nothing out there, for the 1.5 95's.
would either of those engines fit in the car?

RE: Upgrades for 95 lx
 

they will fit, but you need to use the computer to run the engine. the best thing to do is to get a donor car that has been totalled or just retired and just do an entire transplant of complete motor, transmission, and computer. or you could just order one from somewhere as long as you get the computer with it.

besides the a bigger motor, what are some little things i could do?
also. what would be a good choice of exhaust?

RE: Upgrades for 95 lx
 

if you drop in the bigger motor, you could put on an obx header for pretty cheap. you can find them used on ebay or one of the other forums. then, there is intake and exhaust. most of these are the same as the next, but i do recommend a vibrant exhaust if you want a good deep sound. i have an aem intake on my 2002 pro5 and i love it more than most of the other intakes that i have ever used.

you could look at my install thread and see if there is anything that you like. it is just listed as install thread.
