What have you done to your MSP today?

[NocturnalSpeed]

Just when she was coming together, more setbacks.

:::deep breaths:::

I love my msp , I love my msp , I love my msp ...

12mm, unless you are talking about the thread pitch

need thread pitch too

 

[bwalt]

need thread pitch too

8x1.25

 

[Preferio]

Yep...

 

[o0n8]

same as the exhaust mani bolts. good to know.

Took the day off work, plan for the day:
1. switch back to OEM driver's side motor mount
2. switch back to OEM injectors
3. figure out fixing vac leak
4. find a way to make the belts stop randomly screetching
5. get wife's approval on noise level

#5 might be the easiest, she was amazed at how changing only the passenger side effected it.

I"m tempted to give up and take it to a mechanic

random question, If I bought a set of wheels with a 56.1 hub bore and put on a 5mm spacer, would I need to bore the wheel out still or will the spacer move it far enough away from the hub?

 

[RicoP5]

im not the greatest with wheels or spacers your trying to push out the wheel out more so its not sunk and looks more flush or poking a bit?

 

[2.0t03speed]

yes the center hub in the rear sticks out a lot further then the front

 

[o0n8]

bought a set of 17x8 48 offsett, plan is to buy 5mm spacers all around so it will be a 43 offset

 

[theEZV]

Plan is to change drive belts, replace the thermostat and coolant temp sensor Saturday, weather permitting. Maybe do the aac sag brackets if I'm not too lazy, i've only had them sitting around since the original GB. New brakes up front last week. All ready to be traded in, question is on what?

 

[Maiello169]

Is there anywhere I can get exhaust that won't cost me $500, I already have a corksport J pipe and a SLS mid pipe, I just need the rest , car is way to quiet lol

custom

 

[VIPMSP]

Sweet that's the exact one I got... Just need to get my fairing. Do you plan on keeping it on the car when not in use or take it off and on when it's needed?

i'm probably going to keep it on all the time (unless like a snowstorm is on the way)... i don't forsee heavy usage, but it will come in handy with moving & bikes

 

[RicoP5]

or ebay lol. (last resort lol)

Your gona need 8 mm front and about 10 mm rear to clear the hubs.

 

[Maiello169]

Yeah thats what i was thinking, having to go somewhere and see what they would price it out too, I couldnt find anything on ebay. and I've actually have had really. good luck with exhaust systems off there in the past too .

 

[mebarsh]

Buy one for a p5.

I'll get the wheels bored out then

Buy one for a p5.

wouldn't that make the exhaust tip come up a little short?

 

[Preferio]

Just picked up my transmission...
