if ur talking about a regular Protege then its a no-brainer to go with the Si but if ur talkin about a MazdaSpeed Protege then u have an issue....but me being the honda guy that i am ima have to go with the Si jus because they rev higher and the overall history they have and the aftermarket support thas behind em. but im not gonna lie, the MazdaSpeed Protege has pretty fluent aftermarket support but not as much as the Si.

get AE86 or get out!
and since you say you have an ITR already, you know some basics about Honda and what not, right?
How about a FR layout? like...s13/s14/z33 and what not?
and what year Si are you talking about? and I don't think you can get SiR in states unless you got some hookup's that I don't know about.

i had a 87 corolla. sold the ITR and im not in the states im in puerto rico and no its not a state but u dont really see people with hondas down here and if u do it gets beat by a rotary or a corolla 1.8. people over here are mostly in toyota's, mazda's, and datsun's (old skool nissan's). |

I'd rather have an Si, to be honest. I guess I'm kind of biased though. What would you be doing with the car if you got it...? And wait, whats the point of this thread if you aren't going to be getting either... and you're getting a Corolla?
