What have you done to your P5 today?

with the lighter flywheel, don't the revs drop off a lot faster, etc? for me there probably wouldn't be too much of a problem (driving the car), but on the odd occasion when others do, it would likely cause issues... i dunno.

what do you like about the fidanza vs. stock? were there any negatives at all?


probably in just under a month. the 14" all seasons from the 626 were taken off and the old 15" winters put on just over a week ago (the 14's never quite fit on the rears, not too sure why) so she's ready to come out from under cover. i'm going to wichita for a week mar 8-14, so likely that next week is when she'll go into the shop for everything. i have a feeling that once i take her out, the 626 will be parked; i've missed driving her SO much.
just do what i do. dont let other people drive it. problem solved

I was worried about that as well but it's not an issue. No downsides at all. I waited some time before doing it. I regret waiting as long as I did.
 
well on friday i went to the dealer because i had a burnt light bulb and had it replaced in april because one exploded in the housing. well it turned out the reason it blew in the first place and the reason it burnt out was because the rubber piece that goes on at the end of the housing/bulb has a rip or something in it so moisture was getting into the bulb/lense and thats what blew the headlight. so yeah that sucked but now its all better :)
 
Replaced a fog light bulb, finished my nite shades work, completed my ghetto fabulous EDM tailight setup. Didn't have the harness so I got crazy with the hot glue gun and braced the sockets in place and proceeded to fill in the voids with some clear silicone. I noticed too that neither of my lower amber turn signal bulbs were working. Turns out that both of the sockets were totally corroded. Looks like I need new sockets for them to work again......

Put the 17" back under, because the temperature is rising again, washed and tried to polish the car, but it started raining.
Between the showers I took some pics

Love the rims! Car looks great except the chrome on top of the grille. In my humble opinion you should paint to match the body color or something. Keep up the good work.

Just popped the hood to find this. Apparently I have some mice living in the garage this winter. Various pieces of popcorn scattered around the enigne bay.

How do you know it's mice? It could be little elves that decided to watch a movie in there (wiggle)
 
here's what I did today...steelies and snow tires! (bought them off a protege5 owner in montreal...)
