Damn, looks like an MS orgy at Brainy's place. He'll teach, you transfer parts.
So far looks like there will be some much quicker miatas rolling around IF these list are gone by summer time.

Freshen up my 1.8 engine and install
Install Godspeed radiator w/ new fans
Rebuild and install T3/T04E - 50 trim
Install Tial wastegate
Install Begi S5 downpipe/manifold
All new turbo hardware, lines, couplers, etc.
New soft top
Install my roll bar
Sell a bunch of my old parts
If I get all that done, then I'll start prepping for a fresh paint job.

-either get napa 1.6 rotors or upgrade to 1.8 fronts.
-flush, run blue ate brake fluid
-flush radiator

later on in the year...
-upgrade Jim B's intercooler piping kit
-prep/paint

Install new T3 turbo setup.
Install GS radiator and coolant reroute.
Install Oil temp gauge
Install FM swaybars leaning in the corner
Find some real suspension to swap into the car once i have the money to do so.
Hit up the autocross in March in Nashville. Hopefully make an HPDE at road atlanta this year sometime.

Rd. Atlanta cancelled our first race (in less than 3 weeks) because they are so behind schedule on recent "safety" changes. I had a ride for the 5 hour in a Miata and it looked like a good line up.

-Re-mount and rewire gauges (and replace 20psi boost gauge with 30psi boost gauge, anticipating the future)
-COPs, mabye later in the spring
-If someone comes through with MS-controlled progressive WI, I'll do that and a retune as well.
