Yeah, that's slow compared to what he's running now though haha.

That said, he does like to tinker with things so a swap with good FI potential is probably in the cards for him since there's more room for experimentation as we discussed a few pages ago!

I was fortunate enough to spend time in this car at the Gap. It’s amazing. Keep up the good work.

I'm going to have to find someone to photoshop Will's hand out of all the shots I find.

You should post these pictures and the other ones you can find of our group in the Gap thread. I'm too lazy to go looking for all of them and all the different photographers

miata2fast 08-06-2018 09:00 PM

I was surprised to see so many photographers. I wonder if they have to get permits to set up?

I turned out of a shopping center and there was a pop. The car doesn't move in any gear.

Bmw transmission.

Could be a rear end. Or input shaft. Probably rear end.

psyber_0ptix 08-14-2018 09:53 PM

I hope the OSGiken isn't shot. Sad I just missed that 3.3 final drive run

BMW trans is enticing, just having a hard time locating a trans. Also a bit more than I would hope to spend but might be inevitable.

I don't think it's the twin disk, it seems to engage and disengage. It just makes noises when engaged.

psyber_0ptix 08-14-2018 09:59 PM

OK, I threw it in gear with the parking break on. Car still runs. Drive shaft spins. Diff isn't doing anything.


I guess Ring and pinion or the OSGiken is bust. If the pinion is busted, then it wouldn't spin the ring/diff.
​​​​​​
Anyone have a 3.63 or 3.3 lying around. How often does OSG need rebuild?

These things are pretty easy to find. Did you try car-part.com? Email me if you need help. Hope your diff isn't in too bad of shape :(

NA speedo setup is figured out, I'm working on a write-up this week.
