What have you done to your MSP today?

[CHIQLES]

is your maf cracked

 

[msp14]

Maf is fine, it only cuts off after its warmed up, runs fine when it's cold

 

[CHIQLES]

see short or cracked or expanding when hot

^ I'm getting the same thing as well. I'm leaning to either O2 sensor or MAF.

[CHIQLES]

[VIPMSP]

what color? and whats gonna become of the msp? parting out, selling it, or trying your luck with trade in?

both are black... the MSP i'm likely going to part out the mods (steedspeed, retrofits, JDM tails, CF engine cover, GT spec strut bar, yellowspeed coilovers, dave B rings + parts not installed (wiseco pistons/k1 rods) and sell it or trade it in.

 

[Jaleik]

What's the rods and pistons you got? Me interested!

Does anyone know the timing difference between the regular protg 2.0 and the msp ecu? And does anyone have a non-flashed msp ecu?



Let's rebuild that b****!

id be interested in your retrofit if you do part out. not to happy with the ones i got from another memeber.

 

[evilmonkeyMSP]

So I cant decide if I want to just sell these yellowspeed coilovers to just go with some illuminas and tein springs....

 

[323]

why the change of heart

 

[evilmonkeyMSP]

I dunno. Just easier for me...and I an old fart now so it wont be as stiff lol

 

[msp14]

[alazare619]

chisel and hammer to seperate the knuckle where the ball joint goes into. or air chisel/hammer

 

[2.0t03speed]

You don't need to take the hub off the ball joints to get the axle's out.....

disconnect the tie rods, the 2 bolts from the struts and either take off the calipers, or just the brake line anchor bolts. after all that the hubs with rotors and all will pivot and u'll be able to pull the axles out.

did it this way when replaced both of my wheel bearings.

The bumper is in the garage along with the fmic 2 yrs strong. 1 projector hid, the other one is in the garage. 1 sickspeed horn, the other is in my room. To top it all off, my coolant elbow ruptured again. Shoulda got the p5 one like Lambert told me so long ago. There is a rock induced crack in my windshield. Wanna fight about it?

How are the sickspeed horns compared to the hella supertones? I know this is an old post, but I'm trying to find out which to go with.
