The "What's In My Box?" Game
 

Ok you pack of uncouth sleuths, put on your thinking caps for a round of "What's In My Box?"

Your hints:

- It's going on my '99 Miata. I'm in the middle of swapping a 2004 MSM 6 speed drivetrain into the car, which started life as a total base model car with roll-up windows.

- It's not something you would see walking around the car. This includes if the hood was open.

- It's absolutely essential in a performance car.

- It has no wires going to or from it, nor fuel or water connections.

Clutch.

Diff

EDIT: Looked at box again and realized how small it was. I revise that to clutch.

Are you pondering what I'm pondering?

dick-in-a-box?

Timing belt water pump kit.

Pressure plate.

I don't think hustler will fit in there.

Gonna have to say rods and pistons.

dildo shift knob

The sum of all your fears.......

Damn you im trying to work.
Wasn't ordered from mo so something over priced? LOL Just kidding.
I'm gonna say clutch box looks small but what ever.

Steering wheel? Eh never mind you would see that walking around the car. New suspension or diff bushings?

Diff in a box!

I couldn't believe it fit in that box, but there it is. 2004 Miata Tochigi-Fuji LSD in a 6 speed-friendly 3.90 gear ratio with only 40k miles.

(My base-model roll-up window '99 had an open diff.)

Good guesses, although my dildo shift knobs are usually delivered in a cardboard tube, but then I'm not buying in quantity.. ;^)

How is a differential "not something you would see walking around the car"?

I thought the same thing. But I pulled up behind my '99 just now after I got home from work, and the muffler covers it.

Yeah, you're right... I should have been more specific.

"It's not something you would see walking around the car unless you're five inches tall, have a flashlight, and are standing in the space normally occupied by the PPF."

Fixed. :rofl:

I'd have guessed 3.63 gears.

I hope you bought MSM axles for it cause it wont work with your regular ones

Really? The T-F is out of a regular old six speed car, not a MSM. I thought the '99 axles would fit. No?
