CR looks like a sinking ship ,so I better move the thread over here
Quick Recap:
My car's previous stage:
Project G-Wing and Custom Project G-side skirt is added:
Autokonexion ver 2 CF Trunk:
MiataRoadster's 6spd short shifter:
MiataRoadster's CF Fuel Lid:
I also got This Brembo GT kit in red ,but decide to rebuild it.
Pretty big difference in size
It's painted in Gold:
Finally got some more work done...
Simple mod to correct bump steer. I made this 1/2 inch spacer to raise up the steering rack.
(Benefit of having manual rack and turbo)
This is the most cheap and simple mod I ever done, but it make night and day difference! Should have done long time ago!
Here are the two spacers I made... Since manual rack's chassis attachment is flat, you can use aluminum blocks instead of washers.
Tie Rods position is much better now
Brembos are finished too. I like the gold much better than the red.
Rotors are cut and ready for embedding.
Did something for interior too.
Working at the Car industry helps my hobby in many ways
One of the guy at work help me make flat CF sheet. This is total of 3 sheets ,but very strong and super light! It's not perfect ,but good enough to do the job.
after clear coat and trimmed to size.
Mock up:
gawd!! this car is so insanely sick!!! hahha I love it!! Keep it up!! Gives me inspiration to cut my fenders and get my widebody project going!!
i drool everytime i see your car!!!!!
Gonna have to join the chorus here... one of THE most inspirational cars I have ever seen...
If Darth Vader drove a Miata, this would be it!
96 Montego, replacing a 95M... I miss: My running peeps in Tampa, running barefoot @ Clearwater Beach and First Choice BBQ, in Brandon. In So Cal I miss: The Malibu Canyons, CA 33 and In & Out Burgers ! I'm from Tampa, if I was from Tampa Bay, I'd be a fish!

Goddamn. Loving those new door cards ;)
I wanna do this steering rack spacer. Great fucking idea for such a widespread problem (bump steer)
Do you own a single unmodified body panel?
i submit that you do not.
Me and you have very similar tastes in cars. Are you an engineer by chance?
