What have you done to your P5 today?

[mx-p5]

48 out right now.

Drove to work and my car WOULD have loved the weather, but, i got stuck doing 35 the whole flipping way

And you ever see the opening scene to Office Space? Yeah, that was this morning. EVERY FLIPPING LANE was the wrong lane.

 

[magnumP5]

^^^ LOL!

Yeah, I managed to hit 70 mph once or twice but as I got closer to work I was going like 30 mph at best. Weirdest part of the morning was passing a semi going about 10 mph and the car next to him with reverse lights on

Oh and funny little story from over teh weekend

I had Callie's mom in the car with us this past weekend, and she ALWAYS rides in callie's car since that's what we take up to Orlando.

This weekend was her first time in my car, and, after getting back home, she says," Callie, i have to admit, I like his car better."

I said nothing, but inside, i was laughing. lol

She of course had to throw out, "But my stereo sounds better!"

LoL.

 

[CTt3P5]

Nice Tylor but this will just re-inforce the fact that you HAVE to buy Callie a header now.

I drove the MPV to work so I could fill the tank....waiting to hear from Tam to see what her impression of the Blizzaks on dry pavement as a driver vs a passenger.

It must be nice to have a significant other who's at least semi-into modding cars. My fiance' owns a '01 Protege LX and I can't convince her to do anything to it. Not even audio stuff! Not much I could do with that engine though. She has the hopeless little 1.6L...

 

[mx-p5]

Yeah, after putting in the header and taking her for a ride, she gets out, "I need a header now."

i told her it would be kinda pointless since she's got an autotragic.

I am thinking on suprising her with a mazdaspeed axleback though to give her car a little growl.

And, yeah, it is pretty sweet. We just celebrated our 3 year wedding anniversary on the 13th, and, guess what our gifts to each other were.


MSP lips! lol


And she doesn't want me getting anymore audio stuff, cause "That's her thing" lol

Well, she really isn't into the modding thing. She wont let me touch the MPV, other than painting her 'brake thingies black 'cause they look nasty'. To her the car gets you from point a to b and back. This is true, but why not make it fun, right?

This will be her first time driving a car with a dedicated snow tire and I'm just curious to see her response since she has driven it with the summer performance tires.

So are you saying I wasted my money?

 

[mx-p5]

yup


lol

i am actually curious as to what kinda gains you see. If it's good, i'll probably be looking for an OBX for her car

 

[CTt3P5]

Would have been nice to know before I spent the cash....oh well. Looks like I gotta take some pics.

 

[mx-p5]

Dude, i'm just kidding.

Was a joke more towards her referencing she can't get an MP3 ECU.

I am curious though what gains are had by an auto. I know Tony says he feels more OOMPH with the OBX

I didn't see any reference to an MP3 ECU there? Oh well...pm has been sent. If it sales, it sales....I'm fine with it.

 

[magnumP5]

^^^ Man, that was quick...​

 

[mx-p5]

Dude, you can't take what i said serious. I have not riden in an auto with a header to compare to one without.

From what i've read EVERYWHERE, a header is one of the few mods you can bolt on and NOTICE an increase

 

[alexcited]

i think you have friend ADD today too..

hha just kidding

 

[mx-p5]

Friend ADD? Whatcha talkin bout Willis?

 

[alexcited]

its a joke, about the whole header on an automatic topic thats going on

 

[mx-p5]

it was a joke to my wife that her car is slow.

I did not mean for Jeff to take it serious or personally.

Winter time comes and it brings the EMO with it

 

[evilmonkeyMSP]

 

[alexcited]

no i know what the convo was about,it was a play on your mod ADD, haha forget it tho,it wasnt very funny anyway

 

[mx-p5]

lol. i gotcha bud.

It's just strange the number of people that are emo or pissy today.

Bah.

Also, How much is an Unorthodox underdrive pulley and gatar belts go for?
