This post needs some heavy update!
2014 was quite a year for me, i tried hard to get the car up and running for the summer '14, but personnal and professional change had made it quite difficult! So if i go back from where we left the thread. I did a mild exhaust port polish and intake port clean + gasket match https://scontent-b-ord.xx.fbcdn.net/...8d&oe=54E5438D https://scontent-b-ord.xx.fbcdn.net/...31&oe=54DC40A0 https://scontent-b-ord.xx.fbcdn.net/...5f&oe=54E6B2BC Prepped and painted the block. https://scontent-b-ord.xx.fbcdn.net/...f3&oe=54DAB282 As i was waiting for parts to come in, I got my Rack&Pinion pinion chaft TIG welded! https://fbcdn-sphotos-d-a.akamaihd.n...2cbbb4f43169be |
So as the prepping continues, i got my buddy willing to get me some cam gears while he was in japan for a couple of month, so i got all exited and this happened.
https://scontent-a-ord.xx.fbcdn.net/...43&oe=54E809DB Then got some custom thermostat adapter spacers, blank with ridge for a miata sized thermostat to fit and clocked for kia's neck. This is test fitting on dummy engine/head/bellhousing. https://fbcdn-sphotos-b-a.akamaihd.n...89be423d7de21f |
And then, parts started to come in, wich my wallet was unhappy about!
Radiator + Fan shroud. https://scontent-a-ord.xx.fbcdn.net/...7f&oe=54E19097 Pistons and rod(84mm 8.5:1 wiseco) too pretty to even put into an engine! https://fbcdn-sphotos-e-a.akamaihd.n...ffec23d3fa5bca Manley rod(wich i had to compare with stock ones) https://scontent-a-ord.xx.fbcdn.net/...c5&oe=54D2A9AD And then, a buddy see's the picture, and send me this back(Stock BP rods VS 6XXci truck pull alcohol engine) https://scontent-a-ord.xx.fbcdn.net/...24&oe=54D43E26 The super sexy, excessive deal, free shipping Toda cam gears(intake for cam sensor)**Don't mind the stickers please :D https://fbcdn-sphotos-c-a.akamaihd.n...e05ae080a52484 Supertech HD valve spring(got a set of exhaust valve Standard size but did'nt got them on picture) https://fbcdn-sphotos-f-a.akamaihd.n...c6782d3d1261ce Super miata damper.(To fit with ZM-DE reluctor wheel.) https://fbcdn-sphotos-c-a.akamaihd.n...6da850752d4b36 And non engine related parts, Bride seat rail(for low max) because my custom one i made had me sit a bit high... https://fbcdn-sphotos-h-a.akamaihd.n...112cef5353ef4e |

And there it is, final assembly for 2014, just got in in storage for winter, had barely the time to break it in. Sorry for poor pictures, will get some nice one next spring, since winter around here are pretty bad! Will post future project in a list form. Since the car is running on stock exhaust, 1.6 stock clutch and 4.10 gear with 6 speed, there is going to have some changes!
