aye, there's the Rub?(rim related) If I can FIND a decent used set of MP3 17" racing hearts, are they pretty much "bolt ons" for my MP5? I'm coming up on needing new tires soon, and figured I might kill 2 birds/1 stone by nipping up to factory fit 17's, and probably 205/45/17's..... work...

this looks STELLAR!!!! I'm getting down on the 16" stockers on our P5, now I have to find a set of thes used somehow.... how much drop did you have to add, for this (perfect?) look?

Anyone know what the typical MAZDA dealer uses? we bought our P5 used, (with plenty of great service records) at 124 K, and my wife INSISTS I take it to the dealer for it's first oil change under us.... (freak) I've looked throught the records, and although it seem 5w/30 has been the norm...

ah, cool - thanks on both replies... maybe I'll keep it to a cat-back for now, and an in-take as time allows. 17's look great, but not a neccessity, so I'll probably keep the stocker 16"'s for now (which look fine) and try 205's when I need new rubber...(which I know I'll lose a smidge MPG)...

with various mods? We have a 2002 MP5, 125k on the clock we bought used 3 months ago, pretty much 2nd car mostly for my wife. (but I LOVE driving that thing!) I found this forum (yay!) and hit some stuff right away with the "how to's" -seafoamed the engine -cleaned injectors/tank -cleaned...

how much $$ for an S2000 antenna? I picked up an RDX stubby for $18, but I think the reception isnt too hot...

Thanks for the tips, I'll be giving it and all the lines a thorough check! I'll

So I dropped new plugs in my P5 this weekend, and I'm wondering if I effed it up somehow. I went with NGK G-powers. I gapped them at .44(at least I think I did)....how do you know if somethings not quite right with your new sparks? What if I didn't quite gap them right? What if I didn't quite...

no, but I did jsut drop a brand new K&N into a few days ago.... I suppose that could be it! (ugh)

so, Iv'e noticed a weird noise when I shutoff my P5, in the garage.... it kind of "whistles", for about 2 seconds after shut down.... "ssshhhhhhheeeeeeewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww" from high to low pitch.. any ideas what could cause that? Vacuum releated maybe? (crazy)

Dude... I live in the OC - where is this "pick apart" place I can get MP3 rims for $28 a piece????? (uhm)

LOL....yeah, I think you're right... (iagree)

is that year specific, or will any Millenia PCV do? is there a "how to" on that as well?

I posted this on the "how to EGR" thread, but that's old I'm not sure anyone would respond on it.... so here it is... in regards to rought idle and EGR cleaning, in "how to" section it's referenced to manuals/stickshifts.... can this be an issue(and fix) on Automatics as well? I recently...

thanks - I havent yet, but I picked up a set of NGK G-Power BKR5EGP's to try out, dropping them in this weekend.....

can this be an issue(and fix) on Automatics as well? I have a used 2002 MP5 with 124k, and it seems to idle in the 300-400 range, while at stoplights in D. it's not too rough, but there' s little "gurgle" and shake every now and again, and once in a while it drifts from 300-400 up to 600, and...

Great, thanks!

Hello all - I just "seafoamed" my MP5 at lunch today - 2002 , 124k miles on the clock. I used the "brake booster vacuum line" method, and it worked jsut fine. it smoked for about 2 minutes after re-start, a little on my highway run, then faded. I got no CEL's at all, and things seem just...
