What did you do to the GD Fit today?

I chose 75a. They say for that mount size and durometer it should hold roughly 300hp without to much movement. The inside vibrates more when cold and idling, but once driving you don't notice it as much. The response in throttle input and acceleration is a definite plus.

My car has been sputtering recently and I have reason to believe that it's probably the ignition coil/spark plugs so I went ahead and ordered some online. Hopefully this will resolve my problem when I install them next week.
Update: Since it's going to take a week for all my stuff to come in, I went ahead and changed out my cabin air filter, and my rear wiper blade. Both were overdue on getting replaced. I also got my oil changed. Nice way to end the week.

Did my first oil change today, switched to Mobil 1 oil and filter. Also changed the serpentine belt but couldn't get the crank bolt off to install my UR pulley, nor the alternator pulley. :-/

Haven't done anything like this yet on the fit but on my Civic I use to look up the flywheel with a pry bar and break the crank bolt free with a 1/2 breaker bar with cheater pipe. Those fuckers are on there good. Like 200 ft/lbs.

I'm just about at 80k miles and my car has been sputtering the past two weeks or so. Changed out my spark plugs (along with the ignition coils) today and it's running like a champ. I also shaved down my JDM modulo wing some and washed my car.
When you guys change your spark plugs, do you guys also change out your ignition coils? Or did I just spend extra money that I didn't need to?
Also for basic maintenance, once I hit 100k any suggestions? I know I need to do a valve adjustment, coolant flush, check timing belt and water pump, check brake pads and rotors, adjust emergency brake, etc... anything else I might be missing?
