What have you done to your P5 today?

Dude a little advice....STOP BREAKING YOUR P5! lol.

idk wtf it is. i think she clutch started going a lil while ago and i guess it's gettin worse. i need to have it looked at. i am hoping when i go somewhere next time i wont make the freakin noise. it sounds kinda like a creaky board and how a house sounds when it is settling sometimes. it's hard to explain. i dont think my camera is sensitive enough to pick up the sound either :(
 
usually a gas cap issue...but I checked my gas cap and it looks just fine to me. Might also need to check my purge solenoid valve I think?
 
Yesterday i washed, clay bar'd, and waxed my car. It was nice and glossy and looked new. Today i walked outside and it was green again. I hate pollen. I'm also still waiting on my DaveB rings, i hope they come soon!
 
oh, got my new antenna today.(yes) ..couldn't install, got home to late and the car is filthy!

California duster FTW (thumb)

I filled her up with oil today, no intentions of cranking it for a couple days, and it already is ******* leaking. STRONGLY WISHING I HAD BOUGHT A MIATA

Leaking from where? did you have your oil pan welded or somethin?

Leaking from factory defect... (rant) These pictures make it pretty obvious, even though the oil is new and harder to see. It is high enough on the pan it might not matter, I don't know, but it pisses me off. Really killed my motivation for today.

oh come on AWR, that's not cool! Their s*** is nice :(

and now you have to take it off, scrape the gasket surfaces AGAIN, and pay to get it welded somewhere. ugh ugh yeah that would definitely kill my motivation too. Just when you think you'll get things back together, crap like that happens.

Yep my thoughts exactly. The welding will probably hurt the nice finish too :(
This will be... the third time I mount this pan. Today was the first time it saw oil in it too, haha. :: le sigh ::
