Today I drove my Protege5 to work. I haven't seen it since then. I also haven't seen the light of day since getting to work. yaaay IT! haha

I'm getting a shudder that feels like a wheel is unbalanced, coming from my right front wheel. It started after putting the car back together this past weekend, so somethin is weird there. Maybe this weekend I'll rotate my tires (my front ones are almost toast after 24 autocross runs on them plus an SCCA Solo2 novice school) and see if the problem goes away magically or moves.

edit: p.s... the baby was a spare from the psychiatric hospital a block from my house.. maybe that's why it didn't work, st00pid defective baby.

I gave my P5 a nice slap on the behind then hopped into my brother's GSX Eclipse to take care of some errands. That car is so badass

RR Racing front / rear motor mount inserts. FT - MFing - W! I'm really happy with them. Wheel hop mostly gone, driveline lash: same, shifting's crisper w/o the tranny moving all over the place, etc. A little vibration @ idle, but not even close to as bad as the AWRs.



EDIT: Kansei, love the VTCS quote lol. You should make 1 for that. "Oh HAI! I upgraded ur skrewz!"
