I picked them up on Ebay, when i got them it turned out they were non-functional so i whipped out the ole dremmel and opened them up.The large duct is from a Mini Cooper S, so now my supercharger runs much cooler

And the side splitters are courtesy of Rspeed, luv em and easy to fit too!

I'm thinking to get a pair of the FM ones to help with venting under the hood that look very similar.

These were from the last two weeks or so.
But I got ms3 installed and running again! Tuning is underway, I just need it to hurry up and cool down so I can tune MAT corrections and cranking stuff.

I also finally replaced my blown suspension with some shiny yellow things
Pics below.


Cops wiring fixed. soon to go back in the car.


Mmhmmm!


Shiny Yellows!


Out with the old.


In with the new.


Yes my vinyl is reflective. Yes im sure other drivers hate me...


Fixed my horn while I was at it.

I finally had a chance to piddle with her today. Fixed the side window issue thanks to a thread on here and while at it took off the other door panel and greased all the tracks.

Nice setup! , I noticed there's a connection sticking out on the side of the shocks of the new konis, I also bought konis as well.does anyone know what there for? My original showa shocks that came with the miata didn't have them.
