    Just found this, gives me hope.

    So I've got one of these, all stock though. It's a '03 BP-Z3 (BP-VE) and it's sitting in my other miata at the moment. I've been trying to decide if I want to keep it and tune it or swap the head out for a '99-'00 BP-4W. Staying N/A btw.



    So anyone speak Japanese?

    I think Max @ Rev9 is a Maruha dealer, he can most likely get you whatever parts you see in that video from Japan pretty easy.

    Oh boy oh boy Thanks Phat I'll check them out. It'll take a bit before I'm set for legitimate Maruha parts, but that's where I'd like to end up one of these days. Mostly Ive got to figure out how to get that thing in my red car and properly working. Easy enough with most 1.8 swaps I'd bet but I think my VVT will be a bit different... Any one on this forum running a VVT swap in a NA6 car?

    Why not just get Jenvey ITB's? I'm legit asking because maybe you don't know about them seeing as you joined this month. http://rev9autosport.com/jenvey-indi...-irtb-kit.html

    Yeah I've seen those! I know a guy that just ordered a set for a crazy N/A 1.6 build. I guess I'm still figuring out what I'd like to do man. At this point its all dreams Im gona have to do alot of things before I worry about itb's, from whoever... I'm thinking saftey first? I was just impressed to see an IRTB set up on a VVT like the one I've got. I figured it would be possible but I've never actually seen one. Needs a coolant re-route though....
