Ok so a brief update. We have decided not to take 2 cars down. Its just going to be too much money. Changes to the red Miata to come, Oil change and brake fluid change, new pads and getting the...
Well, I got the call I have been waiting for since March. My wife and I will be participating in the Sandhills Open Road Challenge in Arnold NE. For a little info on the race click the link below....
Oohhh, do tell?
I autocrossed/ drifted the RT615's to concrete. Those tires are so heat cycled its scary. Also found out my wife and I are now entered in a race that I am very excited about. ...
So I hopped in the car Saturday morning to go to an autocross and the car would not fire. It was turning over just fine, but thats it. turns out my random misfire was coming from a weak fuel pump. ...
Newest annoyance with my NB. I seem to have a random misfire. The car will run on 3 cylinders for a while. I am assuming its not getting spark, I have changed the spark plugs, will change the...
The car looks awesome. Nice to see it coming back from the garage it sat in for so long.
Quick question, the lift you have, did you get that locally or somewhere online? I am starting to look...
Raised the rear of my car about 3/4 of an inch to get rid of the droopy butt syndrome. I still hate the EZ-Streets this car came on. Also gave it the once over with some cleaner wax. The car went...
You can get a damn nice MSM for that price.
I dream of the day I get to call an MSM mine. I love the LO car at the top of the post.
I have been so focused on the garage lately that I have not had much of a chance to work on the NB's. I have been running wire like crazy, all I need to do now is set up a heavy duty outlet for 220...
Changed the fuel filter on the wife's 99. It is a 40k mile car and the fuel filter had never been changed. Holy crap it was black. Her car should be much happier now. Making a note to change that...
Put gas in the black car, started the fuel filter on the red one. Got intrerupted by the weather and things needing done outside, so the car sits until tonight.
And not NB related directly, but...
Congrats, I put a set of Toyo R1R's on my wife's car and she handed me my ass this weekend at the autocross. Guess that is what I get for giving her fresh tires. :D She won the class out right on...
The first Miata I ever drove was an NB 6 speed that belonged to a friend of my Aunt. I was into Honda's and had a hopped up 2000 Civic Si. To say the least I was underwhelmed by the power output. ...
Wedged myself under the dash in the wifes car yesterday and got the clutch pedal adjusted. Drove her car for the first time in about 7 months. Breaking in the new FM clutch and flywheel. Its...
Finished cleaning out the EGR port yesterday. HOLY CRAP! There was a ton of carbon in that thing. Also let the wife spend some quality time on the lower half of the manifold with a tooth brush and...
Sweet! When did they do that?
I pulled the upper intake manifold off last night. The EGR port was a mess. I spent about 45 minutes with a can of brake clean and a wire soaking and scraping. Looks like I got most of it out. ...
Oooooooomg, thats hot...
I want a black MSM. *sigh*
Your from Minnesota eh? So which one of the ten tousand lakes do you live next to? There seems to be a lot of you Minnesotaers into these her Miatars, doncha know.
Yeah my Minnesota accent...
Changed the right side brake light bulb yesterday.
/Clarkson voice/ I MENDED IT! /Clarkson voice/
+1 on that. Very nice looking car.
I agree with what norman said. 6UL then the TRMotorsports. If you really want to spend money you can look into Volk or Advan, but for the money not much out there beats the 6UL's.
Sounds like you have a pretty good grasp on what you want, so what I have to say will mean little to nothing. My NB has Megan EZ-Streets on it. I am looking forward to the day I can take them off...
