What have you done to your P5 today?

I removed them completely from the Honda. I got sick of messing with them.

...and no, they wouldn't have prevented the hydrolock.
 
whoever had the car before me snapped all the heads off those screws that hold itup, so, mine relys on zipties

Yeah, but the zip tie is a very very very cost effective way of fixing it. I have considered doing it but I've been too lazy.

the driver seat on my old 86 monte carlo broke off the rails once,in one corner,and i had it zip tied down. i was 16 at the time and when my dad saw it,he flipped out that i used a zip tie,and then turned around and just put an even bigger zip tie on it. it was a monster zip tie.
 
^ Lol. I hate to admit this, but the end flange on my J-pipe broke. I couldn't find one at the time, and really haven't looked since it's still working, but I just used two big hose clamps to secure the cat and J-pipe back together.
 
yeah,i let my hefty friend drive it one day,and he ripped the bolt right thru the rail. I was 16 and couldn't really be bothered to fix it,so i used a crapload of regular zip ties. my dad replaced it with one the size of a freakin' ruler. it was huge. when i gunned it in the car the seat would go back. oh i miss the torque from that corvette motor.
 
I have long since fixed this to pass tech inspection but I needed a spacer for a battery hold down. Umm how about a house door jam thingy? It was left over in my toolbox. Chicks dug it. I think I may have posted this pic somewhere else.

Threw a system too lean CEL on my way home from work and my idle is all weird again. No vacuum leaks that I can fine (even the BOV is fine this time) so I don't know what's going on. I plan on checking the exhaust tomorrow but I suppose there could be something wrong with the intake manifold as well. I really need to get something to plug the intake so I can check the whole system at once. To make matters worse, my wastegate actuator is no longer holding vacuum so I'm now at risk of overboosting and blowing the motor.
 
Just got back from picking up the Speed3 seats from Rogue and mazdaspeed exhaust for the protege from aMaff...both were really nice and great to do business with...

Full MSP exhaust? I am currently trying to hunt down the two cat midpipe.

x2 on pics of the seats....if I was closer it would have been much harder to resist buying them.
