So it starts - likely will never finish - like my track car.
Starts with the '94 POS i bought for $450 - but it has torsen :) https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1446037333 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1445173368 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1445174169 All because of this. https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1445173368 So it fIrst started with getting the cage from Salvagewon. https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...3bf4af8508.jpg https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...8dff09da13.jpg And then ordering a bunch of shit for it - oops, can't find pics. I'll be back with more pics |
Never heard of it. Looks dangerous. Subbed!
Edit: Website says you can build it in a weekend, so let's see vids of this thing driving by Tuesday :) |
The "ghettocet" style car is very tempting to me.
I'm glad you're building one! |

After running with the Salvagewon crew at MATG - I was sold - knew i had to build one.
So thus far I've got: 95 block with 99 intake and head FM manifold and DP with T25 (specs?) and IC with greddy bov. FM clutch kit 6spd GC/Koni with 500f/300r Racepak iq3 dash Vishnu fr with RC 750cc injectors Funky cool projector fogs with hid lamps NRG wheel with qd Still need bbk, fp and 94/95 mspnp, reroute Just finished using up my wire wheel on the cage - love the imbedded flying darts https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1445206023 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1445205261 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1445205261 https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...3b37f758f6.jpg https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...3ecec6833c.jpg https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...c2130b77f1.jpg https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...6a6f190553.jpg https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1445205261 The plan is to go with a rattle approach for easy repair with the metallic red like the wheel that i painted - had to - it was a god-aweful gay purple neo chrome. Haven't decided to paint just the tub and leave the cage in wire- brushed clear. |

And so the 95 motor i had that was 'supposedly' good was anything but. #1 #3 rod bearings fubar - same with the crank. Freakin idiots. Anyway - depending on what the 99 motor looks like, i might be using it. It has a cracked #4 ring - but won't know until it's apart.

If the 99 motor isn't any better, a machine shop can turn that crank and order you a set of bearings for it, likely less than 200 for machine work and new bearings. It's not junk, that's fixable.

Can't wait to see the progress on this, looks like a hell of a start.
|
Turning the crank is an option should it come to that. So - my hp goals was around 250 on a stock block - but now with all this digging in and shit, should i just go ahead and drop in forged pistons and rods? That ways i can crank up the boost for that one special track car that's pissing me off.

look at your other projects.
of course you're gonna go overboard and make it a built monster, so why even waste time thinking about it? ;) PS: I've always wanted to set up a ridiculous "kill mode" on a car. Like 250whp normal and then like 400+ at the flick of a switch, just to do it in the middle of a race and watch the face of the other guy...easily done with nitrous but I hate nitrous in for crazy thread :) |
Grind, you grind a crank.
Throw in some Manely rods, Pistons can add a lot of complication, money, and time. And you don't need them for 250hp |
In for pics.

Well that didn't take long - drop dropped $800 on a set of Weiscos and Manleys - while there I ordered ARP mains and studs. Here I go over the edge again - ADD/OCD build thread.
For the record - I'm not ignoring the track car. I send out a set of rod and main bearings to WPC and had to bore out the MR2 hubs to fit in the rounded extended ARP lugs. It's about on wheels again so I can deliver for tubular v-mount glory. But that's another OCD story. |
Andrew is giving me 20% off because I'm putting his stickers all over the thing. Yeah I wish, that tightwad :)
BBK Gen 2 ordered with rear brackets for sports. I won't be installing a pro valve and will try using compounds to balance it out. Hell - who am I kidding. |
I love the direction this is going. Subbed!

Who thinks I should get a Locost7 frame done before this thing get finished, then randomly send it to Genesplicer to distract him with another project?

Where's your thread Nick buddy 'ole pal? I did ditch the pistons - like Curly says, it's unnecessary expense in pistons and machine work. I'm getting some Manleys and use the stock pistons. Because of stock pistons, should I retain the squirters? I've seen/read where eliminating them reduces blow-by and smoke?? |
