i had forgot i droped my insurance over the winter so ya...i'm speeding around town with no insurance, (braindead real smart! my lovely wife reminded me of that when i got home two hours later. i'm calling the insurance company right now!! :)

yeah, give you agt a call and get your ride covered. i have seen some bad things happen since I have been in the insurance business last fall. do you have any kind of replacement cost coverage on your car since you have invested so much into the car.
 
just called, all set to go! no, i don't have any additional ins. i don't typically go for extra coverage or extended warrenties and the like...
 
Mark, you are the man, thats quite an awesome install! I'm gonna sit back and wait and see how many trophies you win and how much magazine coverage you get. I'm not racing you anymore...(wrc)

Oh man... Mark that looks awesome!!!

mmmm... I either need an MSP or turbo P5... but which one? ;)
 
ya doug, do the 5! it's really not a bad install, my auto screwed things up a bit for me. it's funny, during the install i was like clue less and wondering what the heck am i doing...but it's like anything, you do it and you get better at it and understand the pitfalls and potential problems and then the next time (next time??) you don't make those mistakes! i'd do it again tomorrow! (or maybe help someone else?) :)

hah! I had that duty last weekend. This Sunday I went to the parents for lunch and I got sucked into bringing down the pool stuff from the attic (pads, umbrellas, etc).

It was a pretty lousy weekend to work on cars anyway, cold and raw.
 
i have read this entire thread and DAMN! i am jealous like some of the others. when will you dyno it? i am anxious to see the whp and what not. i want to turbo my p5 but like someone else on this thread, i am also paying for a wedding and stuff. keep us informed.

thats me.....planning for my wedding and trying to buy a house. woman can be expensive.....i soooo want to turbo my P5!
 
I think we're all in the same boat here. Well almost... The mother of the bride has a hidden wedding-fund so all I need to worry about is the house right now (and staying under the wedding-fund budget so nothing comes out of our pockets).

So a turbo is not in my immediate future, unless I can slip it in unnoticed...;)

my rents are giving a good chunk, long with hers but the wedding is getting very expensive and we will have to cover a little of it.

then we are looking for a house and that is expensive, too!!!!!

We had a budget minded wedding. My plan was to have just our parents, and we'd be on a beach somewhere, no fancy outfits, just us and some frozen margaritas... that idea was shot down, and I was excluded from all planning parties after that. (hand)

The plan was to have the wedding at her parent's garden, but on the day of the wedding, there was a wicked storm w/ a tornado watch!! so we had it in their great room.

Having a small wedding party meant that we could afford to fly to Florida and I rented a Mustang Convertable. I hate fords, but top down, system up, OH MAN, I beat the s*** outta that car. It was the 2nd best part of the Honeymoon! (upbum)

i wanted a budget small wedding and we could have used the extra funds for a downpmt and closnig costs for buying a house. looks like that idea has gown down the drain......

you pics looked nice bill......

This Sunday I went to the parents for lunch and I got sucked into bringing down the pool stuff from the attic (pads, umbrellas, etc).

my mother called me last week and asked me to help my father someday in the near future to open their pool and pull everything out of the garage......fun!
