What have you done to your P5 today?

[Salmon_Rob]

Damn, first the seat frame now this....

I just noticed that one of my rear calipers isn't grabbing the top part of the rotor (got a 1/2" strip of rust not scraped off)

thats gay i knew it was going to happen. broke the internal nut off, just matter of time

Now, did I read correctly that this is the same stalk that is in the MPV??

If this is so, when the time comes to sell our MPV, I'll have to remember to swap stalks before I get rid of it!

From 01-04 part #'s are the same. You could wait or swap them now, so you don't forget!

Have you gotten any crap for your lights? Lol, mine are true blue and it seems cops love them for some reason...not for giving me tickets but they ACTUALLY like them. (drive)

No trouble at all with the cops or state inspection. Are yours amber or blue when lit? I am sure if mine were blue when lit I would have seen my share of trouble.

mmm radiation... oh wait, that's probably all gone by now... right...?

considering the half life of nuclear waste. I don't think so

'01-'04 Tributes or MPVs? We've got an '00 MPV.


If that would work, my wife would be very happy. It is her P5.

Jejejejeje...true blue when lit and clear when not lit. I got LED's in there. But yeah the cops love it.

Ordered cat back

Ordered the Racing Beat cat back from the Protege Garage just a couple of minutes ago... when it comes in ( I can hardly wait ), it's going on as well as the painted djm lip that's been waiting for the tail end of the winter to get here... just three weeks to spring, right?

( Mazdaspeed axle back for sale - cheap! )

FYI, IIRC, the MPV stalk swap only worked on 03 P5s, don't think it works on 02 P5s.

(For reference we got about 7 inches of snow...so far)


So me and my 5 decided we needed to take a nose dive on to a snowbank about 3 blocks from home . This is after a 45 minute drive avoiding the "4x4 I'll run you off the road guy"... the "I'm scared but won't pull over so I'll just slam on my brakes lady" and so on and so on.

So after using my great 22v driving skillz and almost making it home the plow guy decides he wants the snow and me off the road.

I tell yea It's been a great day... I just look foward to tomorrow.

someone needs to be a little nicer to the engines

Its oil starvation from weak oiling systems. There is even an article about it in Mazdasport Magazine. Doc B racing has discovered this problem. They are working on a solution. Horsepower freaks have also offered a solution to this problem with the FSDE motor..

I installed my Tsudo header tonight. I love it. I can't wait to take it out and see what a difference it makes.

I may have it backwards, only the 03 MPV stalk works? Lemme dig up the how-to................OK, here's the skinny. You have no issue. The issue was for sedans. Have to get a euro 626 stalk to work on mp3 or sedans. 2002-2004 MPV stalk should work for the P5s. Sorry for the misinfo, been a few yrs since doing this & just remembered there being a catch, it just wasn't for the P5s evidentally, just for sedans.
