What have you done to your P5 today?

[sube]

Installed A pillar pod with oil pressure, volt meter and outside temp gauge, drilled front fenders and installed factory side markers. Got the Paintless dent guy to take the door dings out plus a couple dings on the roof. Geez those guys work magic, you cannot see where the dents were. Two of them were on the body crease, I thought he would have trouble with those but they are gone. He had to drop the headliner to get to the dents on the roof. I am happy all dents gone for a hundred bucks and no bodywork.

Pat.

[Rockin03mp5]

Finally installed my OBX Header Only took 6 months and required hacking the EGR tube and joining 2 peices together with Catalytic Converter Hose...but it's finally done...

Butt dyno claims 9hp It definitely pulls smoother and stronger than before...

Nice man, hopefully installing mine next weekend, but I have a feeling it won't be until the weekend after next. Still waiting on my mid-pipe to come in...

Drove around my newborn baby-girl - w00t!

Man it's so uncomfortable to fit a car seat in this car. Contemplated selling it for a bigger ride.
Good news is she loves it, lol

Yes, it should. The miata got REALLY quiet once I installed my cat-back.

I'm getting tired of my P5. But I like it because it gets me where I need to be!

 

[Dpwhitehead1]

not really quieter.. but deeper.

Man, I was just reading through axisboldaslove's thread on his recently acquire MS3 from TruBoost and those MS3 guys can be real mcassholes. wtf is up with that?

On another note, I washed the car the other day but other than that, nothing was really done. I may end up having to wait even longer to install the turbo if SpeedMetal7 doesn't come back soon. He kinda just disappeared off the face of the earth one day. He was the one who was gonna bring his welder and s*** and help me install it. without him, I have only two flanges and a bunch of pipes for my downpipe.

 

[Flash5]

yea from what i have heard some of the ms3 guys are really asses, kind of like the next gen srt-4 guys, which is sad cause the ms3 is such a good car!

^^^ I've been saying this for a while now. It's unfortunate but true...

 

[Rockin03mp5]

so funny the differences in the same brand.

a prebuilt speed brings way different people than one you have to build yourself.

Seriously, the comparison to SRT4 owners is spot-on. Make a car that is cheap and fast and you attract all the idiots who think they're the s***. Granted this is just a generalization but it appears you aren't cool in the MS3 community unless you drop $2000 on a good set of wheels and then ruin them by painted/powder coating them some rediculous color. Kind of like how slamming the Protege is becoming the "cool thing to do".

FWIW, I walk stock MS3's I can't wait until I get my engine build on and really show these MS3 nutswingers what's up. 300 whp + 2800 lb car > 300 whp 3200 lb car.
