That rail looks nice.. Wish they had that for 94+, I would have jumped all over it instead of the purple FM rail.

Any reason that you ran the fuel line over the top? Mine fit perfect under the manifold out of sight. Too lazy to resize: https://www.miataturbo.net/gallery/f...6/pic_0528.jpg

Real badass man. Where'd you get your two heater hoses that go in the firewall? Can't find them anywhere...

because i had to fit a thread adaptor from 3/8 npt to 3/8 bsp the fitting wouldnt fit past the throttle sensor or i would of run it below the manifold never mind looks kinda cool

the heater hoses that go to the bulk head are from a uk company called
www.mx5parts.co.uk they do a full kit red blue yellow or black

when i blew the engine in november i removed absolutly everything including all the wiring and spent 3 solid days sanding the engine bay down so it was perfect and got my bodyshop to paint it the colour i they had the car painted early last year and the finish in the engine bay is as good as the rest of the car
the grey isn't a mazda colour the car was red to start with n then dark red then silver then satin black then silver again and then taken back down to the original red and painted metalic grey
