What have you done to your P5 today?

good luck man, you know we've all got fingers and toes crossed for you (except for all those assholes out here :p). I was lucky enough to have the recall kick in before it happened to me, but just barely. I hope you get treated right :) so far it seems like they're moving in the right direction

Got an s2k antenna for it. First mod FTW!

Here are a few pictures from me and my friend's drive down some fun roads, the other day.

RSX-S couldn't keep up in the turns. (peep)

modding is a sickness, and I think you might be infected... welcome to the forums, plans? or just playing it by ear?

oh don't you worry... the bug is here and never left... not since my 240sx.

Plans are minimal (for now)... just an intake, rear sway bar, short shifter.

But I foresee a fully built suspension (as was the 240) and an exhaust...

I'm currenlty trying to decide between the TWM shifter/bushing set or Kartboy... any suggestions?
 
i heard with rear sway bars you need aftermarket struts/shocks, because the tabs for the endlinks on the stock ones will break, under the load from the stiffer sway bar.

I have 102,000 miles on stock struts with Eibach springs and a SR Motorsports 19mm swaybar. No problems with that set up.

Anything bigger than 19mm would worry me.
 
oooo--- guardrail bruise

I agree on the swaybar thing too.. isn't the stock swaybar 19mm?
 
I have the progress 22mm rear sway bar, stock struts (at least for a bit longer til the illuminas show up & magically land on the car while I sleep) 1.3 lowering springs & stock endlinks without any problems with tabs. I do get a good bit of 3 wheel motion entering driveways that are angled much at all. BUT...with the illuminas will come the AWRs with the grommet silencer treatment. Been this way for 2 years or so they'll hang if not autoXing the hell out of them & the struts aren't complaining yet either.

3-wheel action is so freakin fun. My car does it quite a bit, and I'm just running tokico HPs with the MSP rear sway lowered on goldline springs. I actually left my car parked overnight on 3 wheels because the parking area in front of our summer condo is angled just enough to get her on 3.

I took some pics but then of course my 2GB SD card for my cam broke.. piece of crap.
 
Drove her to the Red Sox game on Sunday in 8,000 degree heat, she didn't like me very much. Yesterday I did a quick polish job on the mazdaspeed heatshield, looks amazing and I haven't really gotten it good yet. My egr came in today so hopefully I'll have that in tonight and I can get rid of my cel.
