What have you done to your P5 today?

was going to order a new clutch today, but someone got ahold of my debit card #'s and dumped all my money on a watch =(. i'll be making a trip down to the bank in the morning, hopefully everything gets sorted out...

dirty bastard. im sure itll be solved
 
Replaced the leaking coolant hose. Had to take out battery, throttle body and the intake mani. By now I'm a pro at it lol. Started at 10:15, finished and cleaned up by 12.:15. BIG storm rolls in at 12:30. Someone up there was looking out for me.

About to go put the DG lip back on and call it a day. I really really hope I don't get any more leaks.

Was that coolant hose somehow linking to a vacuum hose? That upper radiator hose looked weird being all sucked in like that (for lack of better words).

And how's the VTCS removal and light P/P feel with your turbo? You didn't get any pics for me before you put it in, did ya, buddy ole pal?
 
Haven't had much of a chance to test out how the mani feels. The slipping transmission (if you could call that piece of s*** a transmission) also makes it hard to really be able to tell. I'll let you know about the performance in a couple days. But no, the line wasn't connected to a vacuum line. The car would have had some serious issues lol.

Oh and I did snap two pics before I put it in. I'll send em over to you in a bit.

Haha! Holy crap, what was I thinking... Well glad it got all sorted out. And thanks for the pics. No huge rush, I know you're a really busy cat. See ya next week at Mid-Ohio, son!
 
i tried to fit my new fd wheels. need spacers +new rubber. im gonna sell my 205/45 and 225/50 and get some 215/45 +10mm spacers.
 
5mm will work, when you get them balanced make sure you get the stickey wheel weights. (not the ones that hook on to the rim)
