Bought this in June of 2011.

Met Jim (CNY) on clubroadster, he had the NA I had been dreaming of. We talked and a few weeks later I made a day long drive to Northern New York.

Pulled random shit out that wasn't needed, also made door cars and door pulls, centered the gauges on the middle of the dash. Also tinted my tail lights red, turned out shitty but it was during winter so blah.
Time for an Intercooler. Oh yea this had a JR m45 supercharger pushing 5.5 psi.

Bought a t25 sr20 turbo for the car. Along with all the parts needed. Also bought wheels and a shit load of other things. She's got a complete makeover.

Next few things that need to be done are paint the flares, change the oil drain line for the turbo, up the boost, make a center console, purchasing NA door cards, buying eBay tail lights to tiny red. Interior needs more sprucing up.

I'm glad you decided to paint the flares, cuz I was gonna ask lol. Body-color would look way better. Lot of work put in the car, I like it.

I have NA door cards but no idea what shipping would cost.

I'll answer that for him: Because 1.6 + M45 = suck.

RyanxStorey
03-21-2012, 08:24 AM
Thanks guy.

I'll be paint matching the flares once I fix my issues with the turbo. I'm in the middle of replacing the wastegate because the one that came with it is junk and won't open the flapper. I also need to replace the oil return line. The one that came with it was old and cruddy and I chanced it to see if I could get away with it. Well no it leaks lol, so I have a replacement for that as well.

I chose to ditch the supercharger because I wanted to get close to the mid 200s in power and with the supercharger that wasn't happening.

After fixing everything with the turbo and painting the flares I have a few things I'd like to look into. Removing my abs is one and I'd like to delete my climate control and set it up to were it's left on defrost and left on heat then just have a fan switch hidden so when winter rolls around I can just turn on the fan speed. If that doesn't work out I'll just remove it and make a plate and then when winter comes I'll install it back in.

Don't you hate it when you work on your car and have leftover parts?

I'm just stripping the interior shit from under the dash now, a tuck is in the near future for the car though.


What prompted such an ordeal?

All the hvac shit was worthless to me. I won't be using it. What I plan on doing when it gets foggy in the car and I need defrost is to use a little heater fan that plugs into the 12v cigarette lighter.


Hey hey give me those speakers. :lol:

Trade you for that wrench set.


DO IT.

Where do they hide everything?

RyanxStorey
04-03-2012, 11:22 AM
They will put everything brake and clutch wise inside the car. They use large 1 piece connectors for the engine harness and reroute all head light wiring and other wiring through the framing of the car. I will be doing a somewhat decent wire tuck with the BMW 40 pin connectors I picked up.

RyanxStorey

Cool build man, I am liking the direction that you are taking. I bought a built car before because it was a steal and i knew the previous owner so I was familiar with the whole history of the car. I did the same thing as you and took it in my own direction, what i was trying to get at is don't take someones jealousy personal.

If you go back to NA dash, have you considered the AK fiberglass console?

I've looked at getting a shorty console even for this dash. The bruschetta one. Problem is if it doesn't exactly match the color of my dash I'll have to burn my car down. That's why I haven't bought one yet.

I have the fusebox in the inside of my car now and everything is basically where it should be wiring wise. Engine will be pulled tomorrow and I plan on clean the shit out of the bay and possibly repainting it.

The tuck looks great! What are you planning to do for the rebuild?

And why is Adam so happy in that picture? Do we want to know what just happened?

I'm basically just replacing all gaskets and seals and bearing and putting in forged rods.

That's always a good thing... I think it'd be a sad face if it didn't happen...

I'm going to be running no headlight motors.

04-20-2012, 10:46 AM
So will the lights just always be up?

RyanxStorey
04-20-2012, 11:04 AM
I'm going to drill holes thru the arms and headlight brackets and a pin will held them up at night and down when I want them down.

That's actually a pretty good idea; but then your car won't be able to wink at people.

For this

Deleting my headlight motors. These allow me to have my headlights in an open position a closed position manually.

Still need to sandblast and paint.

Why the total overhaul of this car?

RyanxStorey
04-27-2012, 12:12 PM
Bc it needs a wire tuck, new seals and gaskets, I needed forged rods so I can up the boost.

The brackets have holes for a pin to go in when the lights are in a down position too.
Oh and the mess I'm working on tomorrow

Only update I have is the car is being parted out.

psulja
05-31-2012, 12:03 PM
Because you suck? How soon are you looking to get the 1.8? Are you planning to jump right into boosting it?

RyanxStorey
05-31-2012, 12:53 PM
As soon as I have sold enough stuff I'm gonna buy another NA.

I<3flippyheadlights
05-31-2012, 12:57 PM
wait, when the hell did you start parting out your car?! Are you just swapping the motor or getting rid of everything?

RyanxStorey
05-31-2012, 01:06 PM
Getting rid of everything.

Where is the for sale thread?

psulja
05-31-2012, 01:10 PM
It doesn't exist. Yet. I'm waiting for it too lol, just paid off my Visa, may as well max it out again by paypal'ing Ryan lol :gonk:

RyanxStorey
05-31-2012, 01:12 PM
Are you wanting the vmaxxs P?

psulja
05-31-2012, 01:14 PM
depending on the price and how cheap I feel. I'll still have to think about it a bit, but PM me a price. They'd be going on my Mariner which isn't going anywhere fast so I have to decide if I feel like spending money on it even though it's just parked in the garage.

I<3flippyheadlights
05-31-2012, 01:17 PM
Can you pm interesting things? I know that sounds strange but I'm on a sort of craze to buy things. Bought my maintenance stuff and now I want some things more... fun

RyanxStorey
05-31-2012, 01:18 PM
I don't know a price yet but they have like 6k miles on them at the most.

psulja
05-31-2012, 01:21 PM
ooo, fffffuuuu, just saw your list over there. the GV style lip, tinted turn signals, and wheels/tires are sooo tempting. really wish you waited until later in the summer lol.

RyanxStorey
05-31-2012, 01:22 PM
Lol well I haven't actually the part out yet. It's so hard to just say ok everything's for sale.

psulja
05-31-2012, 01:24 PM
True.. I guess I'll see where I'm at when you officially have started it and hope certain things don't get snatched up right away lol

I<3flippyheadlights
05-31-2012, 01:37 PM
Over where!? I want to buy things!

RyanxStorey
05-31-2012, 10:41 PM

Because people don't reply to pms.
I have 5 people wanting those vmaxxs so give me an answer soon I told them I had a friend that may want them.

psulja
05-31-2012, 11:02 PM
Sorry, just got back from work. I don't want to make you wait for me. If one of those 5 people actually sends money feel free to sell them; I can wait for something else.

05-31-2012, 11:03 PM
alrighty man.

psulja
05-31-2012, 11:08 PM
Thanks though! If it was a bit later I'd get them but I don't want to make you wait around if you could have sold them already. The sooner you sell stuff the sooner you can start building another Miata lol..
