Default Resurrection 10.0

Hey guys!! It’s been awhile 🥳

Long story short, I paid off the Camaro and was going to put a twin turbo kit in it but after some debating with myself, I’ve decided to dump half that cost into the Miata instead.

First thing I need to do is send the turbo out this week to have it rebuilt and then I’ll go from there. Definitely going to do a big brake kit and I think I’m going to redo the interior. Basically continue where I left off.

I hope everyone here is doing well and I’m wondering how many of the OGs are still around (with or without miatas lol). 🍻🍻🍻

So........

Took my buddy out today for a rip in a close by parking lot and seems as if I blew up the motor.

Looks like a transplant is in order. *** ☠️

Welcome back! Don't order anything or buy anything until you have a solid plan. It's been what, 5-7 years since you last did this, and a whole lot has changed. Much better stuff available now

Thanks for the advice buddy! I’m not sure what I’m going to do as this wasn’t the planned approach, but I’m going to cross T’s and dot I’s before I do a ******* thing.

Looking forward to taking it apart.....again....✅

Welcome back. Any more hand injuries from punching things? How is the concrete business going?

Hey man. I was just thinking about your car the other day for some reason and wondered where you were.

Welcome back. How'd you blow it up? Old fuel, bad tune, or just bad luck?

Thanks! No more self inflicted injuries to speak of thankfully! Business has been great but this year especially has been NUTS!!

Thanks man I missed you guys too! Hopefully once I start ripping into the car I’ll be more active on here posting pics of the chaos, as well as my usual random nonsense 😇

Whats up man!? I’ve been known for randomly taking it out to rip around close by the shop and the last night I took it out I beat the **** out of it. I’m not sure what is wrong until I look at it because that night I literally was only concerned about getting it back here!! Lol

We’re currently ripping apart and redoing our entire shop so once I make some more headway on that front I’ll start diving into it and give you guys an update. 🙏

Welcome back! I hear you on construction, barely heard back from anyone after asking for a bunch of concrete patio quotes.

Just wanted to give a quick update.

We finally found some free time to get the motor out!

Going to tear it apart this week (hopefully) and go from there 🍻
