What have you done to your P5 today?

lol well sneak peak of car is in sig.. drop will be this saturday with coil's and just got done installing paint matched harness bar yesterday.
 
Installed a Racing Beat exhaust today, sounds great! Now of I could only get the dang strut bolt off I'll have some racing beat springs installed too.
 
Just wait until the exhaust breaks in. I'm getting a slight drone from mine but nothing music won't solve, but then again the drone doesn't happen until about 5th gear cruising at 60 or more.
 
Ive searched but damned if i can find a place a place to get a good set of lug nuts that wont rust or anything....who knows where to get 'em?
 
I have muteki lug nuts...got them from evasive motorsports
they havent started rusting and ive had them for like 8 months now...you just have to be careful when you take them off, you CAN NOT use an impact gun
 
Too aggressive?

Finished the exhaust for the most part. Need one more V-band clamp for the rear section. The clamps that came with the two pieces were rubbish and were causing it too leak. So after I get everything said and done, finish up a few things then I will be sitting on a dyno. =)

I've got black Gorilla locking black lug nuts I picked up from Summit Racing about 2 years ago and they aren't chipped or rusted and I always use an impact gun. They aren't lightweight or bling worthy, but look good and do the job well.

And as far as signatures go, I think a lot of people have way too big of a sig. Half my computer screen is filled up by some sigs. There's nothing wrong with condensing the pic/mod list or just having a link to your build thread. (Ahem, Jeff. Haha!)
 
Lol I pray my sig isn't too big. But yeah I need to figure out some gremlins with why my passenger rear speaker isn't getting sound but the damn radio is stuck lol

I still have the original ones from Mazda, they're the only thing on my car that's not rusting :S

I turned off signatures a long time ago...

No access to the pic here at work, never took the time to start a build thread years ago and haven't felt like starting one now due to the time to sort thru pics and such so what the hell...it's fixed now and lucky for me, no violations or points assessed by the mods. :D

Oh...you can turn sigs off, ya know. ;)

Nah! lol I stopped buying aesthetic items for the car. I like the way it looks. =) Just gotta up the performance.

It's aesthetic and funcitonal. Works much better than the stock wiper IMO. Think of it as a performance upgrade to your stock wiper. :)

I'm just teasing, buddy. I had them turned off for a while too but the signature pics actually remind me of who's who a little better when on here. No worries.

Back on topic, I picked up 3 lightly used Yokahama Parada Spec2's yesterday sized 215/40-17 for $30 as spares for when I order the new tires next week. I can't wait to get the tires mounted to the new (to me) ASA so I can paint them black and have them ready to mount once the weather gets better here. And my RPF1's should be ready this week with the Nitto NT-o1's.
