This is how I bought the car:
http://lh3.ggpht.com/_u_Fa91MHhi4/Sl...0/CIMG3374.jpg Stock except for wheels, JR racing intake, AGX Shocks, and RB front sway bar. Then I bought a twinscrew supercharged 01 SE miata for parts: http://lh4.ggpht.com/_u_Fa91MHhi4/Sr...90614-1624.jpg Here is what I've done so far: http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2647/...4e1b82d2_b.jpg Changed the suspension out to Koni Yellows, Flyin' Miata Springs, FCM Bumpstops, and top mounts. Replaced the kosei's with 16" OEM SE Enkei's. With the springs at the bottom perch, current ride height is 11.5F/12R. Got a performance alignment: 2.3F/2.3R camber Slight toe out front, slight tow in rear Max caster Close up of the "Enkei": http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4003/...0b0b323ee2.jpg Interior shot: Includes NB nardi wheel, kenwood ipod player, NB chrome vent rings, miata cage shiftknob. Disregard the red seats, they are replaced with eBay Brides. http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4050/...f05bed3b_b.jpg iPhone in armrest: http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4045/...9fe815bfd2.jpg NB SE pedals bolted on: http://www.flickr.com/photos/3837113...10166/sizes/m/http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4022/...9970d7bd2f.jpg Intake shot (turbo coming soon :giggle: ): http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2485/...def7d4537b.jpg Installed: shorty antenna from napa, $10 bucks: http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2779/...82c388141f.jpg NB chrome gas lid: http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4044/...a5691cf878.jpg I bought m-edition sill plates in ROUGH shape. 3M was having a sale on their CF material wrap so this is the result: http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4044/...c43cc401_b.jpg lamin-X turn signal covers: http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4005/...da88b627_b.jpg Bride knockoffs: http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4066/...ed152dd4_b.jpg ghey stickers: http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4036/...e52f28da_b.jpg glamor photo: http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4022/...fb8f5cec_b.jpg Here's some parts that are going on soon: http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4028/...e3aa3e55_b.jpg Bossfrog clearview rollbar: http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4066/...17e8b8b671.jpg New Stainless Steel Begi S4 tubular manifold: http://i181.photobucket.com/albums/x...R/PA252210.jpg Attachment 199326 New Begi Stainless Steel Separated Gasses Downpipe w/ O2 Bung and flexpipe: Attachment 199327 Attachment 199328 K&N intake filter and inlet tube: Attachment 199329 Begi heatshield: Attachment 199330 Megasquirt DIYPNP: http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2747/...5e87fb75_b.jpg http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4067/...306f69687a.jpg Flyin' Miata 10.3 lb flywheel: http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4065/...bf8a496727.jpg and no pictures but a used SR20 GT2560 turbo, eBay intercooler piping and intercooler.

Wanting more information on these "Ebay brides knockoffs"

Nice work so far. I think the switch from K1s to the Enkeis was a downgrade though.

I sold my begi S4 manifold and dp to replace it with a begi S6 kit. I am having a tough time getting the downpipe in place. Any tips? I tried every angle I can think of, and it just isn't working. Any help please?

if its no to much trouble can i ask the part number for that small K&N filter?? thats the exact one ive been looking for! |
big updates:
I got the megasquirt up and running nicely. I installed a wideband to learn the megasquirt tuning software. Then I got an opportunity to street tune a 95 turbo miata, so that is a good learning experience for when I turbo my car. Currently, the car pulls hard (for a miata, anyways) with just basic street tuning on 93 octane gas and an increase in timing across the board. Pics of my wideband in one of the factory air vents: http://lh6.ggpht.com/_u_Fa91MHhi4/S_...0/IMG_3993.JPG http://lh4.ggpht.com/_u_Fa91MHhi4/S_...0/IMG_3997.JPG The stock 5sp tranny is known to blow when boost is added. So I installed the 6 speed tranny from my parts car, along with Flyin' Miata 10.3lb flywheel and centerforce dual friction clutch. Sorry, no pics of the installation. Boss frog clearview single hoop roll car install: http://lh3.ggpht.com/_u_Fa91MHhi4/S_...0/IMG_3978.JPG While installing the rollbar, I removed my soft top (to replace it with the top from my parts car). http://lh3.ggpht.com/_u_Fa91MHhi4/S_...0/IMG_3981.JPG everything out: http://lh4.ggpht.com/_u_Fa91MHhi4/S_...0/IMG_3983.JPG I found a rusty fuel cover panel. I sanded the rust off and painted all the panels that were on top of the fuel tank. http://lh6.ggpht.com/_u_Fa91MHhi4/S_...0/IMG_3984.JPG End result: http://lh3.ggpht.com/_u_Fa91MHhi4/S_...0/IMG_3992.JPG Rspeed hood dampers: http://lh4.ggpht.com/_u_Fa91MHhi4/S_...0/IMG_4006.JPG I also repainted my valve cover. This is what I started with: http://lh3.ggpht.com/_u_Fa91MHhi4/S_...0/IMG_4042.JPG primer: http://lh5.ggpht.com/_u_Fa91MHhi4/S_...0/IMG_4044.JPG black base: http://lh3.ggpht.com/_u_Fa91MHhi4/S_...0/IMG_4045.JPG Design: http://lh6.ggpht.com/_u_Fa91MHhi4/S_...0/IMG_4049.JPG Final: http://lh6.ggpht.com/_u_Fa91MHhi4/S_...0/IMG_4054.JPG Installed RX7 460cc fuel injectors: http://lh3.ggpht.com/_u_Fa91MHhi4/S_...0/IMG_4041.JPG Stock 127k injectors vs. cleaned 460cc's: http://lh4.ggpht.com/_u_Fa91MHhi4/S_...0/IMG_4047.JPG also debadged the rear license panel: http://lh3.ggpht.com/_u_Fa91MHhi4/S_...0/IMG_3985.JPG And lastly, I put new wheels on. Kosei K1. 16x7.5+32 in the front and 17x7.5+25 in the rear: http://lh4.ggpht.com/_u_Fa91MHhi4/S_...0/IMG_4014.JPG Installed all-aluminum 55mm radiator with alum. shroud and slim fans wired in parallel: http://lh6.ggpht.com/_u_Fa91MHhi4/TA...0/IMG_4117.JPG http://lh4.ggpht.com/_u_Fa91MHhi4/TA...0/IMG_4121.JPG Beginning of turbo install: http://lh3.ggpht.com/_u_Fa91MHhi4/TA...0/IMG_4154.JPG Deleted AC and PS bracket and pulley, removed EGR. http://lh3.ggpht.com/_u_Fa91MHhi4/TA...0/IMG_4155.JPG Look at all the weight savings! http://lh5.ggpht.com/_u_Fa91MHhi4/TA...0/IMG_4158.JPG Coolant rerouting to clear charge pipes. http://lh3.ggpht.com/_u_Fa91MHhi4/TA...0/IMG_4165.JPG http://lh3.ggpht.com/_u_Fa91MHhi4/TA...0/IMG_4168.JPG Turbo on! Sorry, no progress pics. It did take me two days. http://lh3.ggpht.com/_u_Fa91MHhi4/TA...0/IMG_4169.JPG I am looking for a louder BOV. Any suggestions? http://lh3.ggpht.com/_u_Fa91MHhi4/TA...0/IMG_4170.JPG Cool air box: http://lh5.ggpht.com/_u_Fa91MHhi4/TA...0/IMG_4171.JPG Cast tubular manifold, tial 38mm wg, garret GT2860RS, 3" downpipe, all with baller v-bands: http://lh3.ggpht.com/_u_Fa91MHhi4/TA...0/IMG_4172.JPG http://lh5.ggpht.com/_u_Fa91MHhi4/TA...0/IMG_4173.JPG Front mount: http://lh6.ggpht.com/_u_Fa91MHhi4/TA...0/IMG_4176.JPG Currently at 10.5-11.5 PSI. |
My injectors! Where in Buffalo do you live? I'm actually moving there towards the end of this month if all goes well.
|
Would you please give us your opinion on the knockoff bride seats?
I know people bash them, but they honestly look great. It seems to me that they MUST be better/safer than stock seats just because how much lower they put you, this is if you run them with proper harnesses/rollbar of course. Also, for some reason since they were knockoffs i was expecting them to read BIRDE or something along those lines. Rofl. |

This build came along very nicely, I was a little skeptical of the valve cover but it kinda grew on me. Very nicely done.
How do you like those seats? Are they the knock offs on factory rails? I would love to get a set like those. |
+12 on the seats.
Would you mind posting build price, or PM me rough prices on some of the things you got if you wanted to keep quiet? Really curious. Very nice though, I think it was done very well with very tasteful mods. |

Very nice. Looks good and im sure pulls hard :)
|
If you are looking for a louder BOV, the one you want is the Turbo XS RFL.
It will have people turning around everytime you chop the throttle. I prefer something more subtle. If you want one I have one I'd sell for $50. I prefer not to have people looking all the time.. Sweet Ride! |
Welcome to the baller v-band crew.
|
nice build! i'm digging the valve cover and the subtle NB interior pieces. and i will be going to ebay and looking for those seats :p
