Anyone know how much the stock S and J pipe goes for these days? I cant find any FS threads that list the price 
What have you done to your MSP today?

I think in the ballpark of 20-30 a piece.

Wishful thinking.... I paid $60 shipped for the S-Pipe in February. It was the best deal I could find on one that wasn't hashed.
Edit: By the way, I'm not going to use it after all and will be selling it again.

Ok ill start at 160... lol see how many lowballs i get....
those repaint pics make me wanna do my msp heh. there are so many little dings and scrapes i wanna fix from the previous owner, and a couple of my own.
just cant decide if i wanna keep the pearl yellow or do a color change too. wanted to go crystal pearl white but dont really feel like doing the engine bay ect.
how retarded would a white car with yellow engine bay and stuff look? heh.

Wow I had no idea the S & J's still sold for that much. I'll be sure to sell my S-pipe if I ever get an upgrade. I gave away my j-pipe back to the tech that installed my Vibrant just because I didn't want to haul it around lol.

^^ same lol, but 2 things, first to keep on topic, I found out today that my HID fog light kinda blew.. or at least the base of the bulb kinda cracked and that little wire thing going parallel to the bulb casing cracked, either way doesn't work so gotta get a new one.. and had a lot of fun driving it around after I washed/claybared/waxed and vacuumed the car, still gotta polish the wax a little better and wipe down the engine bay.
but also anyone know if the msp stock exhaust will fit onto an N/A P5? or which sections will fit, can they fit the J pipe back or CAT back? thanks
nvm about the exhaust, found out, thanks

Removed center console to clean and discovered that I had an adjustable Perrin short-shifter! SO I LOWERED IT! Then I installed the new shift knob and rigged the boot so it can't slip down. Also changed out my wiper blades with PIAA's. Pics:

put in my new SSQV v3.... running it VTA for fun, it is LOUD. I got on it on an onramp and poured out some black smoke because I'd been blowing off so much before I got on the ramp. Kept up with the turbo 3rd gen eclipse in front of me. haha
also bought axels. pretty sure my driver's side is finally giving out.

Cleaned it up real nice today, though I still need to buff and wax it badly. After that, I went to a dyno day for the first time at a local tuner shop. They specialize in Honda's, so naturally most of the cars were Honda's and Acura's. But there was still a nice variety of other makes as well. Probably 40 or so cars total. I spotted 3 Evo's, about 5 scubie's, a Supra and a 300zx. I saw a 1st gen MS3 drive by but didn't talk to the owner. I know you guys are probably going to kill me, but I didn't have a camera. There will probably be some good pictures posted on the shop's website before long.

Thanks! And yes, I've got 10mm Ichiba hubcentric spacers. I had to go to extended studs; prolly the toughest thing I've ever had to do with this car. Looks like I'm gonna need to roll the rear fenders next...

got my Stage 1 CM clutch and fidanza flywheel installed today. Thanks Laser Blue for one helluva deal (cool) All I have to say is what a difference!! Now, I am just waiting on a new steel braided clutch line in the mail along with AWR transmission mount and passenger mount. Then, finally I'll throw in my new TWM shifter bushings.
I may get a set of those new Rain X latitude wiper blades and see how they are...

yeah, they do look a little funny on the commercial I watched earlier. They look a little bigger than normal blades for some reason but they look like they do a damn good job

ya, there not as.. slim I guess as normal blades, my mom had them on her van, and they worked great, so I got them for my winter car (dodge stratus crap box) for the snow, work great, no streaks, and non of that damn streaking noise like a lot of others, I'll prob. end up getting them on my msp when my blades I have now go bad

Im going to try them out on my msp but I really need them for my wife's car, her blades are waaay beyond annoying and when it rains, you might as well keep them off because there is absolutely no difference at all. Her blades sound like someone moving a heavy table across a hardwood floor or something..lol it just makes me wanna (bang)
