Aha! Got it!
This car originally came with a body kit on it. I call it the fast and the furious kit. It had to go quickly! ;)

Here is a turbo that me and a friend installed after my other one pooped out... Yes yes its chinese and evil but hopefully it will last awhile till I can afford a proper one![IMG][/IMG]

We all had to start somewhere. It's also a great introduction piece.

This is going to be good.
You can use the build thread to document routine maintenance. We are not picky here about what pace your build progresses. We just like to read and see pics. of other Miati to keep us motivated. (Yes, still sticking to my guns on that IS the plural)
Peace!
Hey Chad, you still got that front F&F bumper? Was thinking wall art for what not to do to a Miata if my garage dreams come true soon. Glad you removed that.
LOL nah it went to the local dump. Had to go!

Welcome. It looks like a killer start!

Welcome to the Forum! Come down to Miatapalooza with the NC guys!
Just an update on the Chinese turbo guys.. Its already fried. I do believe there is something going on where (A) They arent getting enough oil or (b) They are getting too much and it is blowing the seals. I plan on taking the car to somewhere professional this time around to make sure this does not happen with the new turbo. Speaking of the new Turbo duties will be handled by a Garrret made for the nissan s15. Turns out after a little research I did that it is the same as the GT2560R. They are just cheaper from the nissan dealership presumably because nissan had so many built. I will keep you all updated!
