drag racing an untuned sc setup with a clutch that's not properly bled = not smart... and i missed third gear (i blame the clutch)
vs a mustang gt 4.6L, lost by less than .1s ... woulda won if i hit third gear right... I'll get redemption next week

darn... it works on mine, but i guess that doesn't mean anything. my buddy shot the vid and posted it on his FB wall, and it should've linked but maybe his privacy settings are tight... i'm soz![]()
I love the color of the wheels and valve cover. Saw your video in Chris' thread and was thinking "man I hope he has a supercharger, cuz that thing sounds weird." Glad to see I was right![]()

yeah, it's not turbo-level power, but it's still pretty decent. I'm happy with it, hopefully in the near future I'll be able to snag a MS ECU and a wideband O2 sensor... then I'll be all set![]()
hmmm.... a suspicious package

Hooray for top installs in thunderstorms at 2 am!

tonight was new top night. Kyle L swapped a set of tires for a roof for his miata (which is currently for sale!) to make it more appealing to buyers as not everyone has a place to store a topless car... then I swapped him my brand new black top and rain rail for the tan top he snagged (with glass rear window) and, with some large coffees set to work shortly after midnight.
didn't really think of taking pics until after the old top was out, lol... i don't really think much of my build thread while i'm in the spur of working...
and when it was all done by 4 am.... (i'm sure everyone's seen a black and tan miata before)
now it's almost 4:30am, so... nite nite. I'm beat.
when I woke up this morning... few hours past the top install... the mail fairy had delivered a package to me from JDMP which I have been expecting! I noticed it was out for delivery yesterday, but she never brought it so I was kinda miffed with USPS but meh...
A few weeks ago I bought a Garage Vary Nostalgic tail light conversion from RHDJapan. It arrived in about 3 weeks' time, and the time I spent waiting on its creation and shipment, I was scouring the web for the Porter lights and the Daihatsu reverse lamp, and finally (with much thanks to JDMPalace) he hooked me up with some new porters and his old reverse lamp.
Here's what I have got... the pictures tell the story ;)
authentic VARY
basecoat, no clear
GV moisture seals installed
annnnnddddddd.....
sooooooo happy

I finally just purchased an MS3x from Braineack over on MiataTurbo, along with an LC-1 wideband... hopefully she'll take the next step towards being a happily running car. It's been awhile since update - no changes to note. More updates when fuel management comes in.
