Diesel for the most part actually did my valve cover gasket & my exhintake cam. I did some minor assisting. Then I drove my car, his car and let flyin_solo drive my car. It was a good techday

I bought a sparco speed!! whoohoo. well i guess thats what I did for it..
what did I do to my miata?
I rolled my rear fenders and found out the hard way one was bondo-ed
Whatever, I needed new paint anyways

Installed zt-2 with parallel harness I made in anticipation of ms install. Sweet.
Something strange though is the stock 96 ecu runs the car leaner then I would think but its crazy how well the stock ecu is setup for the motor

i was looking at one of those a while ago, but ended up spending money on 2 radiators
as far as the car goes sorry about the fender and cars could always use fresh paint.

Drilled and tapped oil pan for turbo. Removed stock exh. manifold and downpipe to test fit some things that didn't work out on the space allowed. :cry:

I fixed an exhaust leak and cut out the resonator and put in a new section of pipe. Now I can hear myself think when I am driving with the top down. I love having a quite car now.

I put sfi rollbar padding on, and then wrapped it all in 20 or so yards of nylon webbing. Looks much better.

Put my turn signal intakes back on the 95. No point in sealing everything up for winter if it's not coming this year.

Finished the switch panel, drill walked a little so its off a few inchs on one hole but it still looks ok. reread the ms threads for the 7000th time and started working on mine while reading.
