Rear diff mount is done. Write up will be tomorrow. BUT rear crossmember bushings not done due to rusted bolts and I was running out of wood for heat! I'll put them off till summer! Good news no loud clunk anymore! Bad news there is a wine which gets louders with rpms... >.<

Looks good! Just wait, inside those tips it will turn black in no time I just gave up cleaning the soot out 'cuz it accumulated so fast. Video would be nice for comparison since I'm contemplating having a resonator installed, in case you haven't seen my unresonated video this is it:

I LIKE THIS THREAD.

Why?

because I'm always doing something to my b5 almost everyday.

Today I put in some Lucas injector cleaner in the tank and drove around for 1 hour under heavy throttle. Car runs smoother now.

Tommorrow I'll be changing the oil and adding some lucas oil stabilizer. Has anyone used this product??? do you recomend it??... what were the results ......

they're just depo ecodes with 55w 8000k ddm hid's. also, the parking lights are wired to city lights instead of the corner lights

I should have been doing more with my car but I haven't.. just been trimming down my mud flaps and probably other parts too...
