What have you done to your MSP today?

Drove it last night, after being up on blocks for the last three weeks. Feels good to at least be able to drive it. It needs quite a bit more work, but at least now its mobile, and I can do the work, here and then but still enjoy it!

Spark plugs, wires, and coil packs make a HUGE difference when they are not old and worn out.
 
Damn, you're still alive and still have your car?
 
Yea, I haven't had time to jack around with my msp mainly due to the fact it's located 3 states away from me. I got a crappy p5 to drive the fam around in and a bimmer to enjoy.

Usually a lurker on here... but recently replaced my radiator and a quick oil change. Running well at 133k miles.
 
Today, I started my MSP. For the first time. Was sitting for a while before it came to me. Bought it as a non starter. Replaced plugs/coils, did oil change and fixed a ground wire.

She hesitated on ignition but sparked, ran super rich and rough but thrilled to hear it go! the big what if has been answered.
 
The daily MSP sucked up some water last weekend when Harvey hit, threw a MAF code but it blew through and has been fine. Then yesterday it threw a primary O2 sensor code. Am hoping it doesn't come back since I am trying to not spend any more money on this thing than I have to. Can't wait to get the P5 running so I can fix the windshield and put this one up for sale. Hate to see it go but I am ready for something new.

Considering plastidipping the car since the paint is in such bad shape.
 
Picked up a used Microtech on Labor Day, looking into hooking it up now. Pretty complicated process and I will need to purchase some stuff to make it work, but it will be nice to have a legitimate ECU that I can tune with. Should be relatively easy to hit 300whp with the microtech and a T28.
 
Drove 6 hours to Pick these up : -)

Slowly coming together. Can't wait to bolt them on.

Got a new AEM WB for the forged MSP, going to tune the FTC for now to hold me over until I want to dive into installing and tuning the Microtech. My Innovate WB never worked consistently in the 5 years I have had it.
 
Bumper or lip? My lip is hanging off by the exhaust on one car, needs to be reattached with 3M tape. Bumper may need new clips if it's sagging but usually they don't sag.
 
dropped the tranny after it being at the mechanic for over a month and him not even touching it...no to decide if its worth fixing
 
Getting a P0171 in the daily and a P0301 in the forged car. Swapped the coil and wire for cyl 1 and it's still misfiring. Gonna swap the EGR and if that doesn't help i'm going to swap injectors. The plugs are new, but I will try them last.
 
Replace the side mirrors with black ones (the originals were smashed, and so need to get new ones, and the black ones were a cheap replacement for now).

Also painted the wiper arms black again. they had lost most of their paint. Makes a big difference to have them be black again.
 
i'll prolly end up getting black mirrors in the future. both of mine broke so they're both jb welded and they don't fold anymore :|
