  • What can I save?

    Last year I bought a 1992 Mazda Protege that had been in a fender bender and it had slight front end damage. I got the whole car for $300.

    Other than the components to grab for the SOHC B8 swap, what else can be grabbed off of this thing for a Festiva?

    Eventually the car itself will be scraped because the shell is rusted and scratched. However, the interior is in decent shape.

    I also thought about posting the salvageable components from the Protege on Club Protege if I can't use some for the Festivas.

    92L - Dead and needs love - was DD
    91 - Shell with title
    92GL - receiving B8 Swap and will be DD

    I used Mazda Protege seats in my Festiva. They offer a lot better support than the Festiva seats but they aren't as soft as some other options.

      Speedo, which you can mod to fit into a Festy non-tach cluster (I have one in there now).
