Gave the car a good wash and wax, the paint cleaned up really nice aside from the hardtop that still looks crappy. Also got my coilovers, swaybars, and 10AE front shock brace are all on and I got the windows tinted.
I ordered an ACT streetlite flywheel, which I wanted to do on my old car but didn't want to pull the tranny out just to do it. Once it's here a 6 speed and the ACT xtreme pressure place and performance disk from my old car will go in with it. Also ordered 2 new RPF1's and Kumho XS's so I'll have a full set and can get these crappy tires off the car.

Yeah subaru's often tend to flip out with light flywheels and throw random misfire codes too.
I've no personal daily driving experience with a lwfw in a miata, but have driven numerous hondas, subarus, and other cars with them and concluded that they suck for daily driving, which is why I asked the question. I guess it would depend on the clutch (and rest of drivetrain) too, but it was jerky and unpleasant...when trying to drive smoothly I was required to put in extra effort to keep car from not bucking during shifts.

Haven't checked my idle AFR in a long time but it's like 16:1 or something like it.
