What have you done to your P5 today?

today i let the p5 sit on the drive way, i drove the m3 and thhe family jaguar...man a ncie v-8 in an unsuspecting big sedan is awesome...oh so fast!
 
Is it bad that I feel guilty for leaving the P5 home today? lol The pFizzle's gonna take a dump on me on the way to augusta tomrrow.
 
She's not exactly driveable right now. I took off the style bar tonight, but the PO took off the spacers underneath the top nut when he / she installed the bar, so now all I've got is a nut holding my ass in the seat in the event of a wreck. So...until I can get those spacers in (ordering from Mazmart Monday), she's sitting in the parking lot. If I can't get them in before the auto-x next weekend, I'm just gonna re-install the bar and run. Only takes like 15 mins to swap.
 
Oh, again not the P5, but I ordered new struts and shocks for the MPV. Trying to get them in before the great "holiday" road trip to VA.

I know it's early, but did I mistake the "What have you done to your P5 today?" thread for the "what have you done to your blimp?" thread?


:p

It's true, it's true, but then again you keep giving us the RX-8 count-down (enguard)

Foolish, I dont know if you guys have the same issues with suspension parts in Ga as we do here in Oh, but I had to cut my end links out of my MPV when I swapped them out on our '01 MPV. The rears take about 2 minutes each. We bought Tokico blue's off eBay for $239 shipped for all 4. Even my lovely wife expressed how much better the van drove afterwards.
 
Damn, you got the blues for $239? I couldn't find them for anywhere near that price!! Oh, well, I got KYB's (non adjustable), they come pretty well recommended by the folks over on MPVclub, and I found them at one place for about $50 less than everywhere that I'd seen them, so I'm pretty happy with my purchase. Wish I'd looked around more for a crazy deal like you got!

I don't think I'll have too much trouble with endlinks. I've got an impact gun and there's no road salting in GA. We bought the van used, but it was owned before by someone in GA, too, so it's pretty low-rust!
 
I got a flexpipe installed on my P5 today. It came with a FREE exhaust leak. I went to a highly recomended exhaust shop, but the one I went to has some idiots working there. First one guy wanted to cut the flange off my header and I was like "hell no!". An the installer aparently can't weld. The guy would have done fine if he simply used a mirror the first time. Reguardless it got done. I just wish I could afford a welder. I'm pretty good at it, and I'd fix my own s***.
