Hey Splitime - Or anyone else who took off the barn doors
 
Did you ever see this? (Bottom of the linked page)

ISC hood

$325. I'm removing mine very soon, I think I just might have to try that hood..

whats_new

They also have upgraded coils for Miatas.

Splitime 01-21-2009 12:37 PM

Yah, I thought about it. But for 0 dollars I could mod my hood. I also think its heavier than my gutted hood.

<-- all about saving the bucks so I can put it elsewhere.

I think they should charge more for that oil cooler.

Do you have any shots of the hood mods? I'm always down for making my own solution, but in this case I figured my "solution" would be uguly.

I basically gutted the skeleton.
Added hoodpins.
Vented the top of it for my Vmount... raised the front edge to increase aero pulling effect.
Headlight cover is held up by a random bracket system I made... bolts to the factory cover mounting points... holds lid up.
Driverside headlight lid is left off for air... I never bothered to mount it.

Without the skeleton... it is LIGHT. And flimsy :p

anybody recognize that coil upgrade?

ApexOnYou 01-21-2009 03:43 PM

I see, I was more or less just curious of how you held the lids up there. I still will try to figure something out before shelling out $300 for a hood.

viperormiata 01-21-2009 04:28 PM

I like the coil upgrade. May consider that soon....

Any body have any experience with these?

Yah... figure 400 something shipped.

I definitely noticed the coil upgrade! Nice and RELIABLE upgrade vs the COPs.

curly 01-21-2009 07:58 PM

What's wrong with COPs?

Almost seems like at least once a week someone is burning one out on here.

i skip past any new post with COP in the title

are there pictures of your hood/headlight assembly in your build thread?

92Miata 01-30-2009 08:20 PM

Thats a Neon/Pt cruiser Coil. Anything that uses the Chrysler 2.4L DOHC World engine will have it.

ray_sir_6 01-31-2009 01:10 PM

It does look like a Neon R/T 420A coil and plug wires.

Or the 2 liter family. I have a spare laying around if anyone wants it, the stocker from my SRT4.

92Miata 01-31-2009 09:53 PM
