Borrow a sawz-all from someone and it should be a piece of cake.

RotorNutFD3S 09-08-2008 07:36 PM

V-mount it.

MattEGTR 09-08-2008 07:37 PM

Particle reorganizer should do it.

Braineack 09-08-2008 07:43 PM

elesjuan 09-08-2008 07:51 PM

That was core size :p

Though I've got a fair amount more space to work with (once I cut my bumper reinforcement out, anyway)... I have no idea how I'd fit that thing in the Miata.

Saml01 09-08-2008 09:05 PM

And this is why his bed is empty.

Mach929 09-08-2008 09:05 PM

Fireindc 09-08-2008 09:15 PM

Pics of said S13.

patsmx5 09-08-2008 09:33 PM

I put a 20x12x3 core IC in mine. That said, I couldn't go a 1/4" bigger. :)

not much to show show yet really, it's a 92 white coupe, starting with a cheap ass bottom mount t25 setup just to get it running, eventually planning 400whp, maybe a 3071 not sure on a lot of things yet, might do a silvia front end conversion. planning to roll it out in the spring as i've been fixing/cleaning everything, just got oil pan back on, subframe back in, new nismo mounts. it's very dirty right now in the front from my greasy ass hands, it will be cleaned though.

Saml01 09-08-2008 10:13 PM

So are you like the dori kin or something?

i don't even know what that means

MattEGTR 09-08-2008 10:56 PM

Dorikin = drift king, Keiichi Tsuchiya's nickname.

Edit: Tsuchiya's into AE86s, though.

Mach929 09-08-2008 11:12 PM

ok, then no, myself nor my car will ever drift, it will be comfortable street car that i can drive to work and have fun with

+1

Also to the OP, thats what she said!

JEMERY 09-09-2008 02:23 PM

Thats way too large for a miata, and its even a bit big for a KA 240. Good luck

TurboTim 09-09-2008 09:05 PM

I tried hard to fit a 24x12x3 core in between the frame rails. It would require modifications I was not willing to do. but with those guns of yours, damn sailor.
