started work on the rear subframe
https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1408980912 assembled the diff https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1408980912 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1408980912 removing the old bushings was a lot harded than putting in the new ones all bushings all done https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1408980912 next, subframe in the car i decided to install this by pieces. i installed the RUCA to the subframe becaus ei figured it would be easier than doing it with it on the car, then it didn't add that much weight anyways. i did this all by myself, so making it light for me to be able to lift it was a must https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1408980912 i then installed the diff, again..this thing weight about 50 lbs or so... https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1408980912 fully assembled https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1408980912 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1408980912 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1408980912 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1408980912 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1408980912 installed protege steering wheel, i still need to restore it but it'll work for now https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1408980912 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1408980912 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1408980912 car sits higher in the rear because well.. i failed. when assembling the struts, i installed the rear springs in the front and vice versa...fucking fail i know but i rusehd it...i'll have to deal with that later...at least before the alignment. |

some updates
finally settled on an intake filter https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1410370270 got an idea to route the oil lines https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1410370270 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1410370270 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1410370270 started to work on my switch board. i will have a push start..basically, doing away with a key..key will only open the door. https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1410370270 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1410370270 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1410370270 this is what i am looking into doing. https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1410370270 it will probably be done without the letters, or if i ever get a laser engraving thing... dunno yet... |

Very nice build! GAUGES!!!
Question about your oil filter. I see possibly the larger one was used... Would you happen to know the filter sizing or K&N oil filter part number for a slightly larger filter? |
don't want to be a douche, but it took me 10 seconds to find it on google :P
Cross Reference for K&N Filter Part Number HP-1010 do a search within that page for L141610 and you'll see the cross reference to HP-1010 |
Sweet oil feed routing bro!
There's quite a few K&N filters in various sizes. What's your pipe size? |
2.5"
this one was a mistake but i needed one badly...i heard spectre was made by K&N, or so i want to think..i really don't want to know how much money i wasted... |
