    Super looking BRG! I too, would give my right nut for your gauge cluster. That is well done, and classy. Nice job.

    -Cheers,

    Jim

    Cheers for the feedback
    The car was at the shop for the last few weeks (as it has been for the better part of this year) but I'll hopefully get it back tomorrow to enjoy the rest of october in it before it goes back to hibernation during winter.
    I'll try and take a few more pictures if weather and time allow...

    Quich update

    Engine is coming together:




    New seals and Mazdaspeed engine mounts

    A Flyin Miata Clutch and Flywheel will fill up this space soon

    Tein adé - hello BC



    Tried out the prototypes of the new Garage5 Watanabe center caps with centering action

    Added plus: new rear brake setup with OEM calipers and discs as well as stoptech pads...

    Cap on the wheel:



    Maybe we should reconsider the apperance but it fits perfectly and is hellafunctional - me likey!

    To be continued...
