Oh my god that engine bay gives me anxiety.

 

Where's Samuel L Jackson when you need him

 

I can't stop looking at the picture of the bay even though it stresses me out. Hahaha.

 

Nooooooo!!!

I know, you're trying to use reverse psychology on the weather right

That snake pic has a stunning resemblance to my engine bay, but remember, I am going for that "sardine can OEM style
Better study up, a rare glimpse at my top secret setup

 

All I see here is the engine bay of a 12 second car and people H8N.

 

H8Rs gonna H8

Race is on, fuel smell is gone.

See y'all in dynos and timesheets.

 

Some cool things today.

Officially have 20k on my MKTURBO setup, can't say exactly what turbo has what miles. However at least 140 of the now 149 1/4 miles are on the large turbo. It is my favorite
MKTURBO installed at 227000
My buddy gave me these when he bought my s10 pickup.
This is Mazda blue, although it looks a bit dark in this pic
And of course
That little guy up top is up to mischief

 

Top cat

 

Look what showed up, exhaust upgrade time. Ahm gowin too'nuh cotuh yo

 

too small. way too much back pressure

 

Oh well, you're probably right, wonder what the restocking fee for this stuff is.

On the other hand, think how many snakes I could fit in there

Happy April Fool's day you guys!

 

The tranny brace is for real tho

 

well of course. miata owners don't joke about tranny's

 

 

Score! I no longer have any identifying marks on my car, serious sleeper status now.


Looks like every other green NB in my neighborhood. Yes, they all have hard tops around here.
Also a pair of stock headlights that were too good to pass on. Gordon, did you get my text, the guy was super reasonable? Maybe the dents on the hood weren't in the correct area to be cut out.

 

I did not! I'm super glad I checked your thread today though.

Pics would be best, just sent you a text. Dents don't frighten me depending on where they are, and if/how badly they screw up the hood alignment. Thanks!

 

You got the pics right? He only wants 170 and he is half way between us, maybe closer to you. He is making an Exocet, so that's why all the parts.

 

So my right parking brake is sticking, I am thinking the pads are just too thin. I am going in there to swap another set and lube everything up before tomorrow. Heck, we'll probably get rained out anyway, but if not I want to go, and I don't want my brakes slowing me down.

Meanwhile, my wife is trying to banish me to that other forum. Hopefully you guys won't ban me for becoming a whine and cheeser.
Seriously though, that brie covered with almonds and honey is about to go in the microwave and come out so good. Yummm!

 

Yeah, but I failed miserably and he sold it right before I got in touch. Sigh

 

Don't worry, I am still looking for you, they usually come up for about $200. That guy listed it before for $200, then lowered to 170.

I am​ gonna find a super clean burnt orange peel or whatever one for you.


So the PO strikes again. Both my rear brakes are fucked, the guy was supposedly an ASE certified mechanic. I need to do a helicoil on the left bracket in the morning if it stops raining. Don't know how he fucked the threads on there? The right side has a third of the little lip that holds the top pin boot missing. It looks like it was wacked off with a BFH or something WTF. The boot stays on ok I guess for now but I want another caliper. So basically I need a left caliper bracket and a right caliper

This is what I get for not having gone through the back brakes yet.
