What have you done to your P5 today?

[aMaff]

I've had mine on for 25,000 miles and 4 years no problems.

Consider yourself lucky. I've known 2 people with them, both have had massive cracks in the welding.

yeah, but no more than $50 in having it rewelded and your good to go again, right?

I'm about to go to the stealership and pick up a valve cover gasket since I'm rattlecanning the valve cover today. What kind of oil do i use to lube the gasket up before putting it back in? just motor oil or?

quick poll too: as you can see in the sig, the car is white. Should I do

A) Black
B) White

for the valve cover? Thanks guys. Hopefully a few of you reply by the time I'm back lol.

 

[mx-p5]

Black Valve cover. Hides road grime better than white will

 

[aMaff]

yeah, a white valve cover would be...

what's the word?

Ugly.

 

[Sliver5]

black for sure, and paint your lip.

 

[fishdonotbounce]

The lip is painted. Just picked it up from the shop today (headbang)

Black it is then.

what do i use to lube the gasket?

 

[evilmonkeyMSP]

just spit on it.

 

[mx-p5]

roffles. Waiting to hear back from ken as to if the $45 motormount inserts are for both sides for $45. I'll be ordering if so

 

[evilmonkeyMSP]

pretty sure they're a whole set

 

[aMaff]

LOL nice. Just use your finger to run a film of your regular motor oil around the new gasket

 

[vel]

careful....theres rumblings that emissions testing could return to FL in 09....

WHAAAAAT!!!!!!!(nailbyt)

 

[mx-p5]

Just ordered AWR side motor mount inserts

 

[evilmonkeyMSP]

we should start a new thread called "What has Tylor bought today?"

lol

 

[mx-p5]

See? I am still doing it! Seriously, i don't think I've gone a week where I havn't picked up something for either of the cars!

Waiting to hear from another member on his Wagner shorty. I can't find a corksport J-pipe to leave just the precat as the plug in the exhaust

 

[fishdonotbounce]

Waiting for the car to cool down so I can take off the valve cover and paint that b****.

Ordered a new Head Unit today. Picked up a Kenwood KDC-MP208 since the bad Sony Xplod one took a dump on us. Finally will get around to putting in the speakers for the car too...tired of only listening to music from the rear doors lol
