What have you done to your MP3 today???

[zoomin MP3]

oh and on a side note, my highway mpg is slightly above 26.

Is that before or after the cams?

I average 32-35 hwy. And that's a mile above sea level.

Took a weekend up in the mountains of Steamboat Springs. Got the car sideways a few times (not intentionally) on the way back. One in particular was a long left sweeper. I thought I was going into the snow bank for sure. Luckily I stayed calm and regained control, so no off roading adventures. I didn't know whether to laugh or cry when I saw how dirty my car was when I got home. So I decided to laugh and take some pics for you guys. For anyone that's seen shots of my car before, you know how clean I keep it on a regular basis. This was just down right filthy!

hehe. definitely laugh > cry. laughin is good for your health (yes)

bought some xentech hids off of ebay for $70 ...

Found a loose bolt on my exhaust manifold allowing a small exhaust leak. Hopefully that'll fix the driveability issue. Any one in here ever had a P0300 code?

^random misfire...can be one of many things, including your EGR

 

[zoomin MP3]

Yeah, I was not happy when I looked up the code at work and found that it could be related to spark or fuel. I have 6 or 7 different things to check. I pulled the plugs and inspected them and wires and coils. Everything looks fine there. No fouling or anything. I'm thinking of doing a professional intake/injector clean. There might be a piece of dirt intermittently sticking the injector open. Dunno?

I listened to the injectors and thought I heard sporadic rythm from #3, but when I repositioned my stethoscope, it sounded fine. And also the whole time I had it in the shop it didn't act up once. The other tech that works with me said maybe MAF, so I'll pull my intake off sometime and make sure that's clean too. It happened again yesteday just as I got to work. I was coasting into the parking spot and it started to sputter. This time only lasted 3-4 secs and then ran normal. It's really quite ridiculous.

On a side note, my Exedy Mazdaspeed Stage 1 Clutch after 3 years of use still has pretty good thickness:
