wonder if you could pull the shock, run a die on the threads backwards, then weld on a piece of round and run the die back off and cut the threads as you go..

 

Yeah i'm sure there is a way around it. If there isn't a simple solution readily available (IE and adapter kit), then I'm going to forget it and revisit it this winter.

 

Also, to update my "blowing oil out of the valve cover" issue i was having, I went to drain my catch can last night after having run 2 tanks of fuel through the car, and not a single drop came out- it's bone dry. This confirms that the only reason it was leaking in the first place was the poor job I did sealing the baffles on the old valve cover.

 

Couple pics a friend took from our little cruise last Friday. I haven't gone through the pics I took yet, but I'll post a few once I upload them.

 

Put some heat shielding on the underside of the hood, as well as on 2/3s of the brake reservoir (Thanks Revlimiter for the link!!). I left the section facing the fender open so I can still check the fluid level.



Went for a spin after work and took a few pics with my phone. I'll post one for now...

 

Looks so sick. Im loving that kit. Whats the heat shield link? looks like some good stuff.

 

It was dirt cheap: http://www.competitionproducts.com/F...nfo/CPXSH1203/

I bought 8 sheets. I did the hood, and I plan on lining the trans tunnel as it gets pretty hot in the cabin after a long drive (go figure)

 

Few more pics from my drive last night. Sorry for the poor quality, I used my phone.









This last one was from a previous day, but still a neat picture:

 

Looks great man. Sorry I haven't sent that stuff. I have been so busy I have hardly had a chance to work on my car, but I am going to make a point to send it today.

 

No worries at all, I'm in no rush.

 

Did some trimming and lowered the car a bunch. Crappy iphone, poorly lit, garage pics until tomorrow when I can actually have room to take some halfway decent ones. Ignore the dust all over the car, I'm going to wash it tomorrow







Again, sorry for the poor quality.

 

Looks much better mang. Get that wrap yet?

 

yup, thanks again it's gonna work out perfect

 

more crappy shots, but at least I can get the whole car in view

 

Wide Miata is wide. Those tires look pretty stretched, are they 205's?

 

On the fronts yes. I don't particularly care for them, but they were free with the wheels.

 

Sweet. Glad it'll work for ya.

 

Couple pics I snapped of my friends MSM and my miata:

 

Just made my dyno appointment to finish the last of the tuning. I'll be going Wed @ 10am. Can't wait to see what this car can really do!
