I guess step one is sorting out this fucking mess and getting it all taped up and proper. Will work on this on Wednesday. Spent Saturday just cleaning up and putting together a game plan/prioritizing. [IMG]https://www.miataturbo.net/attachment.php?attachmentid=124102&dateline=141139 5766[IMG] For comedic relief, found the last time slip in existence for this car. This is with blown headgasket, blown turbo, blown clutch, huge exhaust leaks, all on a 222k mile original motor. Car #22. [IMG]https://www.miataturbo.net/attachment.php?attachmentid=124103&dateline=141139 5766[IMG] I hate the gay excuses. You make it sound like the car would run 8's at 180mph if it wasn't broken in half, engine in pieces, turbo vaporized, car getting pushed by blind retarded handicapped midgets on tranquilizers uphill with a 100mph headwind |
Nice build.
Where did you source the harness connectors? I'm trying to find some reasonably priced connectors. |

This was a "lol look at this awful slip" type deal. 110mph track sucks dick. I'll be sadpanda if this thing doesn't end up around 125-130mph, just as reference. It wasn't a "feel sorry for me" or "look at all the excuses i have" post. I have no idea what ET it'll hit, though. I'll be happy with anything in the 12s. I care about power, not how well it hooks from a dig. MPH shows power. :) Just at "look how slow this piece of shit was" post. :giggle::makeout: |
its slow if you go on yt and watch TX2K videos.
and then you go into the real world and its fast again |

and then you go into the real world and its fast again I get jaded real quick even in the real world. 110mph trap feels fast. Once. Then the next time it better be 111 or 112mph minimum, or it feels slow.:bowrofl: That 110mph was done on a laggy 16psi. It felt pretty tough around 24psi the week before. (Also see: Why my clutch was blown. :fael: ) |

Isn't that always how it is? You will pretty much get used to the car, no matter what the power level. Doesn't mean that it is not "fast" by most normal people's standards though.
It is... and i get bored especially quickly. :party: |

Valve cover grew another phallus.
https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1412607208 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1412607208 More used AN shit from the circle track place. I like $5 Earl's filters. Coupled directly to fuel rail to eliminate a failure point or two, and because it looks clean. https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1412607208 Very please, so excite. https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1412607208 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1412607208 Just need to run another vacuum line or two, mount up intercooler/piping, attach battery, and see if she cranks on Wednesday. If it cranks and pump primes, will move forward with re-wiring pump, putting fresh gas in, and trying to fire it on Thursday. If fire on Thursday, will have wiring cleaned up on Saturday and interior will start going back in. Dash last, we have some work to do to mold in some $3 chinese gauge pods awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwyiss. |

so we should expect the build to be done in the next 48 hours?

Well, there's really only about 48 hours of work left at this point, i think. This car is about to become a meth whore, though. :brain: Spraying meth seems a whole lot easier than actually controlling timing. |

Damn it, so hot!
