What have you done to your P5 today?

How come you have to wait?
gravel, ugh... no way in hell i'm risking chipping yet more paint off my beautiful racing harts, especially when they're ~$200 a piece to repaint. i'm waiting until they sweep the streets, and it's supposed to go down to something like -20C overnight the next couple nights. cold temps + high performance summer rubber = a squirrelly drive in to work (until the tires warm up)..

plus, it's alberta/canada so there's still a good chance for snow in the next few weeks, much as i hate to admit it, and the fk-451's do NOT like the white stuff... (headshake they kind of take after me when it comes to that

Orded new/used headlamps from a board member and sea foamed it today! The sea foam didnt really make much of a difference IMO. My car has 152k miles on it and it didn't make much of a difference other then kill all the mystiquos in my neighbor hood and annoy my neighbor. lol

what can i use to keep my tool set and floor jack from flying around the back of my car? does anyone have anything implemented or anything? tie the tool set to the strut bar bracket? jack?
 
Use your imagination. There are hook points back there. Get a bungee / some rope.

lucky duck... probably a good month or so before mine go back on :( though i have to say the weight of the stock wheels is much nicer for acceleration than the racing harts...

Filled 'er up.....317.1 miles/13.4 gallons = 23.66 mpg! First time I have got over 300 miles since October but also the lowest I have let the tank get to.

WTH man did you drive that thing to were its on fumes!?! I get 22-25mpg and my gas light comes on when im around 260-280 on the tank! I've only gotten above 300 once before.
 
I've got 97k on my P5 and the lowest numer of miles I've ever gotten on a full tank was 336. I usually get around 390 when the light comes on. Is there something that I just happen to be doing right that makes it better than the average I've been reading on here?
 
i filled up yesterday just as the light came on with 330 miles. I think i used 11.4 gallons of gas? somethin like that, it was about 29 miles to the gallon.
