    Foglight, 6 disc changer, swaybar endlink

    New fog, was installed on car for a month. No chips/cracks. $110 6 disc unit from same car, 142K on it. $50 Rear endlink, check the PN to make sure it's what you need. It's not for a P5, and I don't think it fit a 2000 DX either. $20 Prices include shipping in the lower 48.

    WTB: Protege Header (no obx)

    What's wrong with OBX??? I've had mine on for 180,000 miles-No leaks, No CEL. AWR fitment against the radiator fans is very tight.

    What have you done to your P5 today?

    Got P5 #3 home today. 02 Sunlight silver. 142K. I forgot how bad stock motor mounts are. I put AWR's on after 2 months of driving the 03.5 when I bought it new.. And I'm debating on taking #3 away from the wife and giving her the BMW.

    I bought my 03.5 with 0.... and put 1/4 of a million on it... Need to take some shots of it to a bodyshop for estimates. I'd love to see it go 300K+

    What have you done to your P5 today?

    Wife is OK, some surgery required. Half a day in the hospital. The car has been totalled before, rear ended 3 times, backed over, and has a mere 283,000 miles. The frame is knocked back on the drivers side, the subframe is folded up like paper, rad and condenser both trashed, headlights broken...

    Suspension Issues. w/pics

    Struts don't support the car, springs do. It's probably got a broken spring. From the one side angle it looks like the alignment is out of whack, looks like a bunch of positive camber. Something is definitely messed up in the frontend. It looks like it took a hit in the frontend too, and the...

    I gots me an eBay header! (In-Depth Unboxing & Review)

    The only issue I see is the EGR bung. Not the correct type of flange. Should be a tapered seat. Like the one below.

    well, that was weird.

    So I pulled my 03.5 apart today because it had a vacuum leak. Found that the intake gasket failed from all of the oil being sucked in at the one PCV port. Gasket was sucked in on cyl 4. What junk. Car only has 276K on it, and I replaced the intake gasket ~80K when I did the VTCS removal.

    What's a near brand new HKS Hiper exhaust worth?

    My original one was $345 or so shipped in 03. Pretty sure I sold it for 250 I was quite annoyed when I couldn't get the one back from the 02.

    What's a near brand new HKS Hiper exhaust worth?

    I know and enjoy the sound, had one on my 03.5 for quite some time, along with an OBX header. And a bunch of other stuff. And well, this one is on my 02.... I think I sold mine for 250 like 4 years ago. The bodyshop that did the work back when it was rear ended and they replaced the HKS said...

    TPS reading open at idle.

    Adjusting it by the % open on the scanner. The sweep is fine. I swapped a TPS from a known and tested working vehicle. I guess it leaves it at a harness or ECU issue at this point.

    synthetic oil burn out?

    All poor maintenance. 275,000 miles on my clunker with 10,000 mile oil change intervals with mobil 1 synthetic. Uses a whopping 1qt between oil changes. And I beat the s*** out of the car. Synthetics have a more uniform molecular structure and is a tad smaller than conventional, so it can leak...

    My 02 needs one actuator....The 03 was going through wheel bearings-only on the front, think it's had 4-5 now..... The Tokico Illuminas that I bought on the first run group buy here are still great-and have 240,000 miles on them.... The springs have 300,000 miles on them. Put the clutch in for...
