Dang sucka! I decided to stop modding my P5 for now. Time to save up for another car/motorcycle!

Got a set of MTEC Golden Style 3300K H3 for the fogs, supposed to be pretty much as good as the PIAA Ion Yellow, and I've got a lifetime warranty. Can't wait to see the look with the 6000K HIDs! Well in fact, I can wait a bit because it's -25 Celsius outside... So no installation tonight

I'm looking into getting another bike next De/Jan.

I sold my 91 CBR F2, and, well, i missed it something awful this winter!!

What ya looking to get?

And, -25 Celc? YIKES! No thank you!

We were at a cozy 65F today.


And you're going to LOVE the 3000K with the 6000K HID's!

 

[dxaveP5]

h3c right?
from what ive heard h3's dont fit in properly. and that you have to get h3c to get it seated in right.

EDIT- I think he means regular H3 halogen bulbs

 

[Dom 2.0L]

Yes they're regular halogen and yes it's freakin' cold outside lol

I CAN'T WAIT!!!

Waiting for pics of the transformation asap Tylor. Good luck with the installation!

I'd love to make a photo shoot with the P5 but with those temperatures it's impossible to clean it and it would look like a silver one... So what's the point if the car doesn't look half as good as it can?
(hi) Hello to all my silver P5 friends!

 

[mx-p5]

i'ma try to get as many "in progress pics" but, i'll have my hands dirty on the install

They'll be a total of 4 proteges at the house tomorrow

Jeg will be the only sedan, and Josh will have his Pro5

We'll have a photoshoot. Callie's will be the only one on stock springs

 

[dxaveP5]

good luck with install man,
and i'll be waiting to see pics of the transformation : )

...so I'm seriously considering taking off all the turbo stuff and going back N/A.

I know, I know! I'm seriously getting sick of this oil-burning issue though (and the CEL). Tomorrow I will hopefully be replacing the IAT sensor and performing another compression test. If I get numbers upwards of 195 psi across all four cylinders then I don't know what's causing the oil burning...

However, to go back to N/A I'm going to need a seriously large amount of stuff. I'd stuff keep the P5 modified so I'd be looking for/need stuff like:

Header (AWR or Racing Mazda)
MP3 ECU
Intake (K&N preferred)
Stock Intake Manifold w/ EGR tube
etc...
