I have had my projectors on since I think 2012 and somehow in all that time I did not need to change a bulb. I always dreaded it as I am sure I would need to open the lights back up in order to change it reliably.

I love my projectors, took me a long time to get them in and sitting where I want. The lenses really are pretty rough looking though at this point and the ballasts are all corroded. But we will see when I finally scrap the car and make up a little part out thread of all that is still good. The...

I lost the front lower grill years ago doing this. Worth it! https://youtu.be/48Ixdi-clYA For the headlights, they are a projector retrofit I did in protege headlights. They looked great years ago, but have now hazed a lot and I cannot get them back to the original luster...

I went to pull the sub from my spare tire to transfer into my miata and found evidence of mice living in the car :(. Granted it has been parked since December and hasn't been driven. Sadly I will be scrapping it this summer after 13 years of ownership and 188k miles put on it by me (its at 262k...

simplify and add lightness!

decided to help the side skirt off the car. It had been going for a whilleeeeee. Didn't drive the car for a month, gave it a jump start. Purring like a kitten still at 262k.

oh man! My turd still gives me 27mpg at least combined. I don't ask questions though, I just let it do its thing.

I just want it to see end of 2022 so I can put classic plates on it, if even only for a year :)

Who likes the compartment where the jack goes on my p5! Or my passenger front fender

That is how my miata is, but protege was a rust free NJ car when I got it in 2009. Then I daily drove it here in CT, never garaged. It'll tell me when it is time to say goodbye

Seeing this thing makes me so sad for the exterior condition of my laser blue p5 :(

I believe I had this issue last year when my radiator cap failed. Parked my car after a drive and heard boiling over at the expansion tank, dumping coolant out of it. Replaced it and all has been well since

Burning oil is the name of the game and the car runs amazing. It's a medical mystery.

Oh I have been polluting for years since I removed the pre cat for an obx header prob 10 years ago. Code is for o2 sensor wiring I believe. Only will come on if the car sits for a while not driven, or if it is driven after a heavy rain. Still getting 27mpg city somehow. Every time i turn the key...

I would love to see what mine does for actual emissions. In CT all that matters is having a functioning CEL and having the car not actively throw a code (or have a recent clearing). I did my emissions testing again a few weeks back. On the way to the shop I threw a CEL. Cleared it, drove a few...

Sure is. Goes to the market and the gym. Thats its life!

meanwhile mine is mostly rust and at 262k miles. It isnt the daily anymore. Intown driver only these days.
