did R package tie rods, repacked the inner tie rods( they are fine), and replaced the torn steering bellows. Next in the agenda is lower ball joint and upper control arms....
Haha, don't we all? I no longer have all the receipts, but the mods I put on Yukimura to make her truly "my own" easily exceeds $5000 at this point, all on a car that I purchased for $2100. lol.
Nothing.. and it's been that way for a week now thanks to the recent snow and some portions of the highway being salted.
With no offense intended, I seriously believe this thread should be re-titled "From trash to treasure" or something to that effect.
I would not hesitate to say that this is my personal favorite green miata, extremely clean and subtly stylish!
Thank you Blueiii! I would be really interested in seeing the path the you take with camber, as well.
Anyways, photo time! I decided to take Yukimura Christmas shopping in hopes of snapping some...
H.O.L.Y S**T, now this is one lucky escort, rescued from otherwise certain fate of death(crusher), and transformed into something formidable, plese keep us posted!
Thanks concealer! Yeah It's the most audible during decel/coasting in my case as well. although you can somewhat hear it in other occasions.
I will give amsoil a shot. I've already put the...
My apologies, however, none was provided at the time of purchase except for that it's never been messed with since removal, I was simply promised a mechanically sound MSM diff and it indeed...
SM16R: I'd certainly hope so. It's currently filled with a quart of Redline 75W90, perhaps I should try a different brand of juice? I also got this diff already installed in the carrier/pumpkin as a...
As stated, a MSM Torsen now occupies the place of the stock 1.6 diff. However it's been slightly noisy ever since the swap was done. The noise level is light and only audible when no AC or radio is...
Disclaimer to above post: It was written a long time ago, several days after I bought the car, before I become familiar with miatas in general, so some misconceptions did occur....I apologize in...
Thanks for all your positive comments, I will be occupied during the next few days so hopefully this meager update will hold until I have access to this site again:
Being dismayed by the G-coupe,...
It's been a busy year between me and Yukimura. The above mod list is now very outdated, below is a up-to date version:
The interior of the car also looks very different, I will try to take some...
2 days ago the butterfly brace was put on, then yesterday I re-routed the brake hard lines some to prevent constant rubbing against said brace, then changed the Transmission fluid(again in 6 monthes)...
Yukimura, originated from a famous warrior during 1500s' Japan, although I associate his appearance from anime "sengoku basara" more closely when I think of the car ( both are red) lol.
I am looking for:
armrest by it self( I have a mint center console but a beat up armrest >_<) if in excellent condition.
and windshield mounted rear view mirror, if in excellent condition.
ready...
Hi Phat, my understanding is that all compressors are Denso Tv12 series between NA and NB. The differences are minimal and more importantly, a 90-93 R12 car will require 94-97 R134a suction/discharge...
Hello,
When I installed a Protege 4M32 unit to my 91', I simply attached pin# 14 on the rear plug to a existing dim wire for my crush pad gauges( which in turn is spliced into the ashtray light...
to the OP:
Beautiful car that reflects the owner's beauty! I do, however, wonder about the practicality of the secondary tach attached on the passenger side, it seems out of the driver's normal...
^ Indeed! and I fully agree with our black belted savior about changing the coolant hoses and all hoses under vacuum/pressure in general. the first overheat of my current engine happened when a small...
Benbrg: Thank you, and good eyes! If there are 3 cars that I am taking design cues from, those would be MS miata/Roadster turbo, RX-7(FD), and perhaps unorthodoxly( if such a term exist, lol) the...
Good looking MSM! One of my friends had for for a short period of time and the extra power it makes are very appreciatible over Yukimura's stock B6, bet yours is a lot of fun too.
Slow& steady wins the race, I can already see your car evolving into something beautiful at a steady pace, matter of fact I am the same way-I'd rather take my time and save up for for exactly what I...
