What have you done to your MSP today?

always has to be something, I'm just happy I had my extra caliper lying around to replace the crappy "reworked" one that a shop replaced for Slug420 when he had the car, the moving middle section kept the break spring bent digging into my rotor, can't wait to drive the car without it squeaking, unfortunately the caliper paint I had, came out a little more red than the orange I was going for, but then again , I could have ordered a different custom match color from like the orange challengers, but oh well, this should be good for a few years
 
Oh, i removed my head :D so just gotta wait for all the new parts, JDM Sam got the pistons in like 2 days ago, but they forgot the rings and shizznit, so they will be there next week hopefully haha.
 
first HDR of the car... wheels are not mine and are highly temporary. not sure what the deal is with the lines but.. meh.

So u got new wheels? Looks good dude. Thats some fat tires.
 
I can't believe I'm saying this cuz I usually like a more understated look, but I'd like to see those "wagon" wheels with centers color-keyed to your amber corners and side-markers. It would be an attention getter.

ircc he let someone bum his wheels for autox so they just swaped wheels for a few days.

orange would be better than red... it looks less red in real life. the HDR kinda amped it up. the "2" on that back wall is very faint red in real life.. doesn't pop like that.

As for on topic: just put in CS shifter bushings. seeing as one of my heatshield bolts won't come off, I had to do it without moving it. that sucked. VERY dirty job. I'm still blowing out black snot. going for a quick test drive.

^^He needs to get out and snap some pics in the sun. They look pretty good on his car.

I'll snap some before I swap back, which will likely be tomorrow or tuesday.
 
well today I put my wheels back on, reinstalled the HID fog light from DDM tuning, (which I would like to say, they are cheap, but don't buy them if your getting fogs, they don't fit in the fog housing, I had to really squeeze it in there, and I used a ring of silicone around the inside edge of the fog housing to make sure it sealed even with it not closing 100% all the way, s*** sucks) but calipers came out ok, there more of a dark orange/reddish than what I wanted.. also checked the spark plugs and did a compression test, all came across around 125psi, very consistent so that's good
 
taking it to see if i can get some codes pulled, now im thinking its a fuel system issue because coming from a stop it takes awhile to get up to speed and it is hard to maintain speed above 55
