Thanks...
i have an inquiry in with them.... do you remember what size you used? i will check your build too but in the mean time... |
pretty sure it was 2 7/8"
|
Heading to the shop tonight after i pick up some trans oil and an alternator belt.
change 3 wires, install intake manifold/fuel lines and put the new AEM file i made onto the EMS and see if it will start. Once i get it running, i will finish the other shit like exhaust and new seat mounts. Going to run the car all motor for the rest of the year. If i can get it running that is. When i do, i will be taking it to the dyno to see what kind of numbers i can make with my custom intake manifold and VVT tuning. I will 100% need a 6 speed though. 5 speed and 3.636 rear without boost will be lame. |

it doesnt look like it, but i got a ton done today.
i refinished my valve cover since i only primered it before. In memory of my VW GTI, i painted it Candy White. I love that color. https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1313899046 Hacked the flange off of the OEM header to fit a 3" pipe. Surprisingly good construction for an OEM header. https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1313899046 General cabin shot when im wiring to the EMS https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1313899046 Vinyl negatives and steel wook work great for logos! https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1313899046 Going forward, im still not happy with the wiring. I think that i would like to get some ECU plugs, an amphenol for the firewall and a summit racing chassis harness kit. If anyone has any of those items, that would be great! |

Can anyone confirm what size the factory fuel lines are in a miata?
I am ordering Tube to AN adapters so i can do my custom fuel rail with aeromotive FPR. My hacked setup leaks and im not risking a fire. Ordering these: https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1314209178 offered in: 3/8" and 5/16" |
5/16
|
Tks B.
|
that's what i'm using, they are super easy
|
Just flare the lines. You can rent a brake line flare tool from Autozone/ insert silly wobble head parts store here, and buy the nuts and sleeves from Summit for super cheap. You get a perfect female AN joint to mate to that looks cleaner for cheaper.
|
I have one of those tools.
Care to share the summit part numbers for reference? |

These are the nuts. The sleeves are usually in the 'related items' section in each item page. 5/16 is -5AN which is going to be a little difficult to find. Measure YOUR lines to make sure they're both 5/16 OD and I'll be happy to see how miuch they will be from my local line/ fitting dude (superhero, really). Be aware that I've done this on several cars and never found one that was both 5/16 feed and return. Usually it's 3/8" feed and 5/16" return on Japanesy stuff. |
Thanks!
I will look into it. Im going to get the car running and then order all of this. Having the car towed into town from my shop so i can work on it when i have a second instead of spending 2 hours driving to do 2 hours work. |

Bride reps. Fit good and sit REALLY low.
https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1315090323 They are so legit. Also made egr blockoff plates and random bracketry. Putting most little stuff on tomorrow and finishing the exhaust before I tow the car into town to do the finishing details. Hope to be driving in 2 weeks! |
Looking great. Really dig the vinyl negative and steel wool.

The welds on the exhaust are fully purged and both inside and out look like this! So good. I ran out of gas though so i couldnt finish every weld. |

:tear:

I know Bond. I am just sad that i dont have many pictures of it together as a car...
|
Damn. I know if I bought a 350z I would end up getting another miata. Never really cared for the way they felt. Good luck with the partout man!
