What have you done to your P5 today?

Nice name.

I haven't killed anything with my car (yet), but I did dodge a rogue hubcap crossing the street last night.

After 4.5 years of having my car I finally came up with a name for my car.


" Hunter "

In June I took out my lower grill, paint on the bumper, windspliter & air dam under the car while hitting a large Jack rabbit on Hwy 60.

Saturday night on the way home from Lake Havasu City I dodged a porquapine at 70 mph. ran over a already dead deer and hit a skunk dead on.

All this with in a 50 mile stretch of Hwy 89 between I-40 and Prescott.
 
i found out friday that my tranny cant be rebuilt in the sense of a basic rebuild.
1st gear was shaved down 8mm, 3rd 4mm, and 2nd an INCH!!! also reverse had a chunk missing from it.
to go along with that the shaft that runs inside the tranny was bent all to hell.
the shop had to get a core tranny and take parts from that

but hopefully itll be done tomorrow or tuesday.
 
Damn dude, having tranny troubles?

Did 2nd even engage?
 
Found a Mazdaspeed axle-back on Craigslist, realized it belonged to a guy that lives in the complex I moved out of 6 months ago, emailed him, bought it for $80, and installed it, all within an hour.
 
I haven't driven my car since July 16. Tomorrow I'll get to start her engine and take her for a ride around the block...until she sits in the parking lot again until the end of August...
 
took some night photos

I saw her today :(. Shadow102 is borrowing her for a while while he gets his tranny w/ (now) welded diff into his spicyspeed :)

I'll probably see her tomorrow too. Briefly.
 
god you hate your p5. loaning it out, not driving it. poor baby :(

The miata WAS the loaner, but I sort of needed her this weekend. You know how it is, every once in a while you just need that fast, loose girl for a couple days! ;)

Actually, she's a little too loose right now. Gotta settle that b**** down....
 
no, just north of Anchorage.

I think the sun sets at 11pm now and twilight stays for a hour or two. I shouldn't complain, I'll have night soon enough.
 
yesterday made it a year since i had my p5 xD haha i just remembered today because i was reading my old myspace blog crap. heh i still love my baby
