Looks good HKPRO5!!! I received my Rear Racing beat rear sway bar,and also received my stock air intake yesterday with the K&N Drop in filter.Just waiting on my end links and also my rear strut bar
 
my car had a bad idle for awhile. I just ran better gas (91), checked with vacuum lines, and drove it hard for 500 miles... it fixed it self (^: It still runs lean but I think its only because of the headers (I have nonfouler but doesnt seem to work, also a giant crack in headers hehe)

well my car only does it randomly for like 2 mins when i first start it up, it idles perfect every other time, plus i already run 93 octane, im pretty sure its my EGR being opening when its not supposed to, im just going to unplug it an see if that fixes it, if not move on to the next thing lol
 
the top part you drape over, glue and put the window guide back on(as you can see I took the whole panel off)

Here we go. The back doors are the easiest, start with those. Then work your way up to the front doors.

Nah, that won't be necessary. Here's a list I compiles sometime ago on what I'll be replacing when I do mine. *

*I've been told that there is no need to replace the camshaft and crankshaft seals. I've also been told that you don't need to replace the rollers but seeing that the bearings could freeze I'll spend the extra up front so I don't have to tear it down again (rollers are approx $180 or so for OEM).

Lastly, I'd suggest going OEM. I've heard a lot of people have issues with aftermarket water pumps, specifically, for the P5.


Timing Belt
Idler Roller
Tensioner Roller
Tensioner Spring
Water Pump
Water Pump Gasket
Camshaft Seal
Crankshaft Seal
AC/PS Belt
Alternator Belt
Tension Adjustment Bolt For Altenator - 997950880
Spacer for Tension Adjustment Bolt - FP0118363
Valve Cover Gasket -

all that mechanic replaced for me, all seals as well, first water pump was defective so they installed other, works like a charm now. all OEM too.

HKpro5 it looks awesome. im a lil worried about possibly doing the insert on that. i want to.. just gotta find fabric i like.. maybe il do some GUCCI hahaha i was thinkin doin the door inserts and maybe the inside pillars. dont wanna OD on the fabric... makes it look ricey. a lil in doors and stuff is plenty and looks good if done correctly.
