What have you done to your P5 today?

k, so as I stated drop her on the eibach pro - kit - I have not endlinks in the back but the front ones are still there... just not 100% tight (I guess)... I drove to work this morning and have a f'ing clunking noise... would it be the end links... or did I screw something up when I swapped my springs ?

Still she looks hot...

Depending on what you mean there, you've found the problem. So...what do you mean with "I guess..."? Are the endlinks on properly or not?
 
Too bad I didn't live closer Derek, I'd give you a hand.

To stay on topic... I turned over 110k miles yesterday. (I wasn't able to post this yesterday) I've put 20k miles on the car since January 20th when I bought it.
 
Damn man...thats a lot of driving.

Yes if they are not tightened fully it will clunk. Get a torque wrench and torque it to spec. If you can't do that, use a ratchet and get it as tight as you
 
Well I got the new Walboro fuel pump in. I haven't fired it up yet as I need to run to the hardware store to pick up the screws to replace the stripped ones. That install was easy but had little pain in the ass parts like the screws and fitting the new pump in. I'd ride a bike there or walk there but it is pretty hot, so I'm going to be lazy and hide in the A/C.

I've been contemplating getting those but I'm not so sure on the install - I don't like cutting vital components. Is there any benefit to running these with the stock injectors?
 
I get to drive her today! YAY!!!! I haven't driven my car since mid-July...been traveling for work and vacation and such. I can't wait!

The plastic tabs are the only thing you have to cut so I wouldn't really call it vital. Pretty cheap and easy to fix. Like I said, the install wasn't bad at all sans the stupid screws which were just an annoyance. As for benefit... http://www.mazdas247.com/forum/showpost.php?p=3308000&postcount=229

Ya convinced me! I just went ahead and ordered one from PG. Hopefully this will prevent any leaning out issues around 10 psi - as I should be around there with the ATP wastegate actuator.
 
no but that would be the start and i would like the front lip and possibly paint the hood with the black stripe but thats what i was wondering if it would be decent without anything else
 
it would look off.
