He already answered that question. Here you go.
PS. Nothing to see here.. just doing my daily creep on your car Brian.
thanks!
thanks for posting the link. lol no worries, I do the same with your car. btw how do you like the 1.8 coils? are they worth getting?
good to know haha. i'll probably just end up replacing my coilpacks then.
So i've been out of town for almost 2 weeks and I've been dieing to drive my car.... Before I left i started stripping the interior by removing the rear seats. I'm gonna see how much I can remove while still keeping everything looking "nice".
Ordered some new brackets and polyurethane bushings from energy suspension to replace the cracked rubber ones on my progress swaybar. also ordered some 2.5" piping and a resonator to fab up a straight pipe exhaust. I was really surprised how cheap everything came out to on Jegs, not to mention the free shipping is really nice.
Also planning on doing a canyon run through Ortega hwy with my buddy's new brz next week if anyone wants to join us let me know!

Does this mean I can have your exhaust? ;D
haha you really want it? it's just the stock piping with a mazdaspeed axleback
haha alright i'll let you know when it gets taken off.
yea it's the already "shortened" axleback from mazdaspeed. i'm pretty sure it's the same as the 03 msp one. it's quieter than the ebay catback, but the quality is a lot better. lol luckily my girlfriend doesnt mind how loud it is.
OH I GUESS EVERYTHING JUST WORKS OUT FOR YOU THAN EH?!
....yeah let me know buddy..thanks <3
LOL! will do
just bolted up the studs on the back of the "scoops" (there should be 3 studs) to the foglight buckets.
Where did you get the tail light overlays? Car looks good man...had your car as my screen saver at work for a while
just made them myself. I have some extra ones, pm me if you want a set. thanks man! that's awesome!
lol thanks buddy
. for now i'm planning on keeping the stock midpipe and cat. after the cat will be 2.5" resonator and 2.5" piping all the way back under-axle. When i do get around to doing the whole exhaust i'll just weld on another 02 bung and run a defouler to avoid the CEL. hopefully after i save up more cash i'll be able to find a corksport or pope downpipe and then i'll add a catless midpipe. it would be cool to have it turn out similar to simon's p5 http://vimeo.com/48697843small update:
Ended up replacing my coil packs due to a lumpy idle. After replacing them i found it was just a vacuum leak lol...
I'll be picking up a welder in a couple weeks to finally get started on my exhaust.
I also got tired of the factory silver interior accents so I decided to wrap a few parts in vinyl. I'll get a few more shots of the panels installed tomorrow.

a few updates
had to get the p5 towed last week due to a ruptured clutch line
swapped out my MSP 03.5 knob for a TWM desert eagle knob
and finally replaced my torn stock rear mount with a medieval one. The install wasn't too bad, as long as you have a few wobble extensions and a breaker bar you should be able to do it in a couple hours.
and also got this in the mail today
and picked these up last week
installed
i'll have some better quality photos up by tomorrow.

Woooooooooowwwww
Replaced the stock radiator a few days ago. Originally I was just going to go with an oem replacement, but I ended up finding a no name aluminum 2 row for a little more so I decided to take a chance and order one. Shipping was very fast. Found it on my doorstep the day after I placed the order.
Pretty impressed with the quality considering the price. Welds look good. Also did a leak test before installation with positive results. No problems with installation, everything lined up the way it should surprisingly. As you can see in the pic above there are 2 male AN ports on the bottom of the rad. I just left the caps on since I didn't need to use them.
For a bill less than a Mishimoto I have no complaints, but we'll see how long it actually lasts lol.
