"The 2017 Miata New Year's Challenge Thread!"

I don't have any major plans yet, but I would like to save up for a clean six speed NB and keep it all motor. When I said clean, I mean clean body no need for a paint job.

I've got no major plans for my car this year, mostly small things like some dress-up bolts under the hood. I am thinking that the shorty rear bumper needs some kind of cut-out, it is just too... vast. I am currenlty leaning towards something like this.


I need to paint my trunk hinges as well.

That looks awesome!

I'm hoping to get a majority of the maintenance stuff done over the winter. The rest will get done eventually.

- Get my head rebuilt (leaky exhaust valves)
- Do a timing belt/water pump job
- Delete A/C
- Detail engine bay
- Install MW header
- Remove washer fluid bottle (ABS version) and replace with cappuccino bottle
- Replace stock radiator with Mishimoto and slim fans
- Sandblast and powder coat various bits
- Install sound deadening stuff at some point
- Find some dress up stuff for the engine bay and interior
- Rebuild/refurb soft frame and install new soft top
- Send my dash, console/radio surround and gauge hood off to have the redline leather interior installed

Finish cutting out my rear bumper, because racecar
Hella OEM style E-code headlights
Replace Throwout & Pilot bearings
Clutch & flywheel that came with the car
FM Little Big Brake kit maybe.. current pads are good but rotors could use a turn.
Keep the interior clean, as usual. Paint is awful so no worries there.

Tires. STR is no place for performance all-seasons. duh.

My 2017 goal is to stop licking frogs. No, really.
