Now that I kinda sorta started modding my soon to be daily driver 01, I think I'll be keeping track of all the mods and what not.
As everyone knows, this is not my 1st rodeo, with previous miata's/setup's documented here: https://www.miataturbo.net/build-thr...finally-31240/ https://www.miataturbo.net/media-53/...tochute-44414/ https://www.miataturbo.net/build-thr...d-setup-49710/ https://www.miataturbo.net/media-53/...-u-gay*-50838/ https://www.miataturbo.net/media-53/...C%5C%5C-55903/ https://www.miataturbo.net/media-53/...obile-d-56777/ https://www.miataturbo.net/media-53/...*sniff*-56921/ https://www.miataturbo.net/build-thr...en-8%3D-60039/ Among MANY other show off/picture threads:giggle: So anyway, after aborting my LS1 swap project on the green one due to stupid nazi CA laws and regulations, I just had to have another miata. And it had to be white with black interior, and it had to be 01+ (vvt), and it had to be 6sp, and it had to have a torsen 3.9, and all SE bracing, and SE brakes, SE almost everything, and be in good shape. Obviously ALL that is hard/impossible to get in 1 package, so I basically MADE myself an 01 white SE with black interior. INTRODUCING: the PIG https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1342932127 Got it with a wee bit of bumper/hood damage and replaced those. Swapped in engine/trans/suspension/brakes/basically everything from one of our SE parts cars: https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1342932127 Painted it: https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1342932127 |

https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1342932821 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1342932821 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1342932821 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1342932821 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1342932821 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1342932821 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1342932821 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1342932821 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1342932821 Garrett GT2876R turbo with T3 .63 hotside, ETD long tube manifold, downpipe, Tial 38mm EWG. |
More mods to come, though I wont be boosting it for at least a few months: too much other stuff going on.
So anyways, that's it for now. |
Where have I seen this before??
|
In my 1st and 2nd build threads? Though that was a 2000
Or are you talking about Dem's car? I already told him many times we have twins lol Though his is going to be a monster, and mine just a fast daily |
In for the win! Will keep an eye on this thread, i know good things are coming. What's your WHP goal this time?
|
Thanks.
250 on stock motor 350 on built motor...Maybe more, we'll see. e85 of course |
Good looking turbo setup. Essentially a T3 y8's setup, right?
I'd be interested in seeing a dyno comparison of the T2 vs T3 housings on this turbo. If it's anything similar to y8's car you should breeze past 250whp |
I like. Very similar concept to my car, less track pig and more liveable. It's my 5th MX-5, damn this disease...
|
It looks like you're already off to a great start with the new ride. Also, I didn't know you're FXT was the same color as mine heh.
|
i definitely should have bought your last car. Which ever one it was. Damn sexy. What recardo knockoffs are those? Size/offset wheels? Rays works with konig?!
In for the big turbo win! |

Which is why I'm setting the "limit" to 250 til I build. Technically this should make more on the top end while giving up maybe 100rpm worth of spool or something. At least thats what I HOPE. Fingers crossed.

In for the big turbo win! The seats are made by NGR, are suede, black with red stitching, and are: lower width 21 mid width 18 upper width 21 height 33 They definitely fit, but I'm actually considering other seats right now: some corbeaus, or some bride viosIII low max. Not sure if I'll run these yet. |
Surprise build ftw. Looks like a great start man. Did you put that manifold together?
|
Do I get to check this beast out when I come today? Also I have the same wheels, and I love them. Are they the 15x8? I have Toyo R888s on them.

No, the mani is an ETD long tube. They stopped making manifolds for our cars years ago iirc. Really good quality piece though, I'm really excited to give it a shot.

And yeah same wheels as yours: I actually was the "1st buyer" for your wheels but changed my mind because the tires were a bit expensive and non daily driver friendly for my taste. |
Looks like a great start. Can't wait to see it come together.
