It has been a while since I last updated this thread since I always put it off, but I finally made my way back. A lot has changed and I never stop documenting at least here and there on my phone so I...
I'll be there, frantically trying to install my m45 intercooler in time for the event and get my car tuned. We need to meet up and get a supercharged 2000 SE picture.
It was time for me to move on to refreshing my M45 Jackson Racing supercharger. I purchased new supercharger fluid because I have no record of it ever being changed since 2003 and the supercharger...
Throughout the job, I did find a couple of areas on the engine harness that needed some repair. The plastic loom for the alternator power wire had started to fall apart. I went ahead and removed all...

I started the teardown process for doing a timing belt job along with a bunch of other maintenance items. I told myself when I got the car since it had just over 65,000 miles and...
What an awesome car to watch you build. I’m glad it has gone off to a good home! I’m excited to see what you will do next :)
Really hard to come by for a decent price nowadays, if at all. Seems like people are charging $700-$800 now for them. On an NA I think the Dcuatro wing looks better.
I’m super excited for you to move onto paint Bryan. The Tick is ready to be fitted once again with all matching panels haha. I think a $5k budget will get you a really high quality respray. There is...

I signed up for a local autocross event in pursuit of some much-needed seat time. This was my first autocross event despite owning a Miata for several years. I was unbelievably...
Saving $300 was a pretty big motivating factor behind it as well :lol:

As I mentioned before, I love my Clearwater speakers in my car. The only issue is, ever since I got the car every now and then the speakers would rattle when playing a song a bit...
This is an overview of a repair I performed on my Clearwater speakers. This will apply to both the Bose replacement versions and the non-Bose replacement versions as physically they share the same...
Funny you should ask because I recently did a little work to them because they developed a rattling sound after over 10 years of service. I’ll be posting about it shortly. Everything seems to be...

I went to my local drag strip and ran my car for the first time. There was a lot of learning involved as it was my first time as a driver on the drag strip. Going into it, my...
I recently discovered this thread and want to tell you Steve that your craftsmanship is impeccable. I had loads of fun reading through your build and I will definitely be taking inspiration from it...

Baseline testing is underway. I have decided I am going to run the car at the drag strip, autocross, and hopefully a track day as it sits. This way, I can track the car’s progress...
After reading this I actually started using mine to hold CDs :mrgreen: I keep mine on the passenger side of the transmission tunnel.
I've heard the same thing. Only some dealerships were...
Fresh oil change just in time for the spring festivities :D Hooray for Misfire!
I think the tombstone end cap would fit the look for Misfire. It's nice they give you the switches for the window...
They are quite fun. One of those old interesting catalog items that you don't see enough.
I'm a little late to the party :whistle:
Hopefully, I'll be able to remake this video in a couple of years and have a car to show that's a lot cooler :D
...
I did not get the umbrella with mine either. I always assumed it was an option when ordering the trunk organizer because of how rare they are. They show one in this Saratoga ad a fellow enthusiast...

Happy Birthday to Quinn!! 2000 SE #2441 was built 21 years ago on March 15th, 2000. :D
To celebrate here are some of the best photos I have of Quinn since I've had the pleasure...
Nice job. You definitely did a better job welding the hanger than I could do that's for sure :lol: You're are just one step closer to laying down some dimes in the future :slayer:
