    What have you done to your P5 today?

    She started up this morning, struggled, but started. I spent the day working on my girlfriend's car. She did a 360 on the highway this morning and slid backwards into a 10ft ditch. Luckily she's ok, but the back bumper didn't fare too well. Half of it is still in the ditch. The nice part is...

    Hoping she starts up in the morning after sitting all day today in the cold. Fingers crossed!

    A lot of the "useless" tabs in the engine bay are just plain, tempered steel... no powder coating, galvanizing, nothing. Prone to rusting and such. Replace the clips on the air box with a whole CAI... problem solved. (alright)

    I LOVE that video. One of the few P5 videos that are actually worth watching! Question... has anyone ever used Snowfoam to wash your car? Given the amount of crap I washed off last weekend, I think come March/April that might yield me better results after a long winter. I guess I'm curious...

    Just did some number crunching and realized I'll have my P5 paid off this September... unless something else happens sooner. Mo' money, mo' mods!!!! New life motto. That, and graduating without a car payment. Either way, it's good.

    I think I remember seeing somewhere that the cabin filter is somewhere behind the center console, I think up by the firewall. Don't quote me on that, as I have never changed mine, but it's the best I have ATM.

    You should be OK with just the harness for a 35W kit. My old '95 Protege was running a 35W bi-xenon kit with no problems. I have the harness on my 55W kit now and it still flickers. My error code eliminators SHOULD be here this week... should. They are shipping form China, for some reason. Lol

    Are you running a 35W or 55W kit?

    What have you done to your P5 today?

    The error code eliminators basically act as capacitors and trick the computer into thinking there's a halogen bulb, rather than the HID which draws less current. In many modern cars, there is a light on the dash that tells you if you have a bulb out, however not in the P5's. The HID's wouldn't...

    Well seeing the pictures, it seems like it would be pretty easy to fab together. Better, stronger materials still at a cheaper price. I'm sure someone here would be able to powder coat it for you.

    Ahhhhhh, as far as I know there are no light bars for the P5's without getting a custom fab'd bar. I'd suggest custom making some brackets to mount them behind the lower grille and maybe remove the grille insert. Other than that, good luck. Just my thoughts. Welcome to the forum, btw!

    http://ddmtuning.com/Product-Categories/LED-Bulbs-Lights/Truck-ATV-Marine Light bars won't be cheap. I've mulled over the thought of drilling into the roof rack and mounting some Hella's up there with some HID's, but that's the definition of expensive. DDM's LED light bars are a pretty good...

    You guys are lucky! I have a 30 mile drive EACH way for school, in another time zone, AND I don't get out of class until 9:40pm 2 nights a week. So jelly bros!!!!! I too capitalized on the nice weather yesterday. Took her through a basic wash at the gas station and did a decent wax at home...

    What have you done to your P5 today?

    AMEN!!!! I get to work today and the store manager is like "How do you feel about working in another department?" to which I am perfectly fine with. I come to find out that the decision was already made on the assumption that I would say yes. So, learning a new department (grocery, nothing...

    What have you done to your P5 today?

    Sometimes, the roads can cause a slight pull to either side. I will occasionally get a pull to the left, then to the right on respective sides of the highway. No uneven tread-wear, play in the steering, or anything. Just keep an eye on it, check your tie-rods and make sure they're tight and...

    The boot on the coil for cylinder #4 took a dump tonight, literally right as I pulled into my driveway. And of course, I didn't have enough time to get to Autozone to get a new one before they closed. Good thing I called because they're holding their last one for me.

    IDK what it is about these stupid little ricer kids in this town, but some tard-muffin in a little red Honda tried racing me again tonight. He was "lowered" (probably cut springs, it didn't look even), had a fart can, steel oem rims, and couldn't find second gear if his life depended on it...

    Got my W-2 yesterday. All I'm waiting for is the 1098-T form from school and I can file... which means big return... which means more toys. I love this time of year!

    In other news... here's a sad story. I remember reading about Jessica and her Supra in Import Tuner back in high school. Truly a sad, sad story. http://autos.yahoo.com/blogs/motoramic/swimsuit-model-1-200-hp-supra-stolen-chopped-224520926.html
